Lots of thing point to them using the same basic body model for all Vocals tho. Like the fact that the vocals don't seem to have different heights, or that Miku and Rin's arms and legs look pretty normal but Luka and MEIKO's look like sticks thanks to their chest size, even Len and KAITO have this problem to an extend with KAITO having biceps in the place of a big chest. Take that in comparision to Vsinger vocal's models where it's pretty obvious that they have different body structures.

They even seem to reuse hair strands for a few models, like with Miku's white dress where she has her hair down, it seems a lot like Luka's hair but blue, and a lot of Miku's other models seem to reuse her pigtails over and over, i think they even reused hair for Rin's Future model but i can't recall from which model they took it from. They of course make unique things for every vocal, like their faces but the basic body structure seems to be the same.

You can also see when they started changing the way they built the models in FT. The ones that were ported from Dreamy Theater are more bare bones with weird textures in comparasion to the newer models, like the ones from Project Mirai that were remade for FT, and all the modules for songs from the letter series (F - X).

Something i find weird with some of those models tho, is the fact that some of them are bigger than othera but i still haven't found out why. And no, i don't mean taller, i mean literaly bigger.

But this all makes sense, since they have to make 100+ models for every game. They are just saving resources (they are saving them a bit too much for X if you ask me but whatever). It might be easier and better to remake something from scratch but they don't have all the badget they want, and they have to use money on other things too, like the animation.
