LEGO 20 (10 Pairs) Yellow Minifigure Hands

Product Information

I think the proper orientation is with the wide end up, but for poses like spearmen at attention, I turn it upside down, because that changes the angle of the accessory and brings the spear in closer to the body. In addition, it's neat to see how the joints in a real hand work through a Lego interpretation of one. It is great for those who want a nice lego model of a hand, and for those who want to try and draw or paint a hand. I just showed someone, who knows hardly anything about Lego, a minifigure with its hands orientated differently and she said the flat-topped, wider section up hand looked better. First, predict how much pressure the Robot Hand needs to lift the different objects without damaging them.

I find that the design and articulation of human prosthesis very interesting, and would be very beautiful in LEGO form. I generally go the other way, just because I like the position of the utensil they are holding better with the hand upside down. If they're not holding anything, they're usually upside down, since that's how they came from the factory or how I positioned them when they were holding something.

The palm is just solid and flat, unlike a real hand, but I don't think that detracts from the articulation at all, because of the range of movement in the fingers and thumb. That's the typical orientation, because the wider parts represents the longer fingers and the thumb (supposedly, first time I consciously think about it). Although many different types of hands are used today, the yellow hand remains a standard for the Town/ City Themes and other non-movie based original LEGO Themes.To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

This trend continued until 1989, when the first different shaped LEGO hands came out, which was in the form of a pirate hook.

They have been made with a variety of colours and have come with every minifigure from 1978 until 1989, and are still in usage from 1989 to the present time.

I used to be very precious about having my minifigs hands the 'right' way up, until I realised that when I turn the hands upside down, my soldiers can hold their rifles over their shoulders, which looks much better when marching in formation. Only when you bend your wrist down (so that your forearm makes a straight line, more or less, with your thumb) does the bottom part become larger.

An idea for the finished set would be to include several different colored sets of those panels so people could change the final look of the hand - dark red, dark blue, silver and gold.In fact, it's probably the one bit of Lego that I get all OCD over, it bothers me when the hands aren't 'right', even when I can't think of a reason for it.
