LS vs. DoC Hands
A comparison of the DoC fist hands and Serenity’s fist hands.
Please note the smooth finish of the hand, the missing thumbs (which is strange as the finished hand has thumbs that stick out past the fingers), and the lumpiness of the ball joints.

Have you also considered Volks SDC fist hands? LadySaiyuki had a Volks SDC Renee with those fist hands.
Also, having an SDC girl myself, I can see some similarities in the knee and ankle jointing between Kodomo Serenity and Volks’ SDC female body.

If you look at SDC Renee’s hands they really don’t look very similar at all except in the thumbs — the fingers are very different, and the left hand is very loosely curled. And really, the style of the hands isn’t very Volks-like. That said, it has been suggested that SDC Renee was the look she was going for here.
As for the legs, I think Dollmore’s actually concluded that they are in fact Kid Dollmore legs but to my understanding is holding off making a statement because they don’t want to cause a huge incident.
I’m not really the one doing any of the “consideration” here (neither is radiotrash), we’re just harvesting evidence presented by others. So if you want to make up some comparison shots and email them over we’ll certainly post them if we think they’re informative.
And from a purely circumstantial evidence angle, would YOU mod your extremely expensive, extremely limited parts from a company that is extremely well-known and notably litigious and takes copying allegations very seriously, or would you mod the ones from less expensive, easily replaced dolls made by lesser-known companies that don’t actually have a track record of nailing recasters to the wall?
