HIP JOINT STRUCTURE FOR FIGURE, AND FIGURE

A hip joint structure includes: right and left hip joint shafts to pivotably couple right and left thigh parts to a body of a figure; and a hip joint cover to cover gaps between the body and the right and left thigh parts. Each of the hip joint shafts is bent outward in a right-and-left direction of the figure while extending from the body toward a corresponding one of the thigh parts. Each of the thigh parts has a hip joint shaft receiving hole to receive a corresponding one of the hip joint shafts, the hip joint shaft receiving hole being formed in an elongated shape. Under a state in which the thigh parts extend straight down from the body, the hip joint shafts extend into the thigh parts, respectively, while extending outward in the right-and-left direction of the figure and downward.
