I know many of yall will be disappointed to not see me post up some excessively chonky critter. But don't worry, I'll get there. This is a proof of concept action figure base to finalize the various tolerances and clearances I've been experimenting with over the past couple weeks.

Using a very accurate athletic build, I checked to make sure that everything works with a worst case scenario, thin/small limbs, and a constrained body cavity, with little contact area to massage the ball joints into. So now when I start work on heftier articulated figures, there should be more wiggle room in making the character more accurate.

The design itself is inspired off of the old GI Joe figures that used elastic to hold the limbs together onto the torso, and as such, I'm hoping to make these a similar size, around 3 and 3/4 inches tall, or at least to that scale. Though I will also say this is also due to the limitations of my resin printer as the build area is woefully small.

Anyway, keep your eye out over the next couple weeks as I try and make some actual action figures.
