I have a few Belville figures that are either missing hands or feet, and a
random head in my part bins. I know it's probably a bid task to break these
figures down into components like traditional figures, but it would be nice to
be able to buy or sell the hands or feet separately if you've got them so
others could complete these guys.

The catalog currently does not maintain entries for individual component body
parts of these figures. I can't say if this will ever change, but it will
definitely not happen for the foreseeable future.

Cheers,
Randy

It is a far from perfect fix, but you can list as custom items. Are you wanting
to sell the bits you have or buy to complete them?

Prefer to buy and complete since I've got 3 or 4 that are only missing a
hand or a foot.

The other way would have been easier to accomplish!

I never buy them, but I do occasionally see lots of used and broken Belville
dolls on a popular auction site that I know. It is probably a better venue to
find what you are looking for. I don't think the dolls were intended to
be disassembled and customized.
