Articulated prototype
« on: October 26, 2011, 18:45:25 »
for people who likes articulated prototype I did find this web page. The playmobil has articulate knees, elbows and hips.

I think if Hans Beck had seen this he would have been all over it!

It might not have been allowed in the first year or two (due to the company struggling monetary wise at the time) but this would have been THE BOMB!

It doesn't look that bad, is it a custom or an unverified rumor for the future  ???

They're kind of cool. Wouldn't want them all to look like that, but kinda cool.

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

Well.. if we wanted articulation or realism, we wouldn't love the little guys, IMO

And we do :love:

i'm working on a photo story and have realized that the lack of factory-made facial expressions and articulations in a klicky can make a picture very challenging when it comes to relying on body language...however i don't think it's impossible to make klickies' bodies express what we want, and despite this custom is very well done *i* would NEVER like our klickies to have movable body parts...
Enjoy the elegance and fun of 1900 with The Victorians photo story! :gent: ;D :sherlock:
