So much fun! I had to order a second one so it would have a happy little friend.

The product Is amazing and they were very kind and helpful.

Best purchase for art I've made in 15 or 20 years. I love this product. Simply excellent!

I played with Multi jointed figures before. From Body Chan to T13, and Sticky Bones takes the cake and eats it too, you can do ANY pose from your favorite characters, the magnets are a stroke of genius, and the stand adds so much more for play, it's not even funny. It's worth the price, 10/10. My only suggestion is, make more colors available. That's not a meed, just a suggestion. I however, LOVE my crash dummy looking Sticky Bones.
Jermaine
Quick and easy to assemble with the perfect amount of poseable options. Amazing!!

Currently in the process of animating a band. These dudes are super cool for getting basic poses.
Of course my daughter and I tested them as action figures first. Very cool action poses.

I absolutely love this figure. I will definitely use it for future art projects. Also, I can’t stop posing this guy. Majority of my day is posing this guy. Thank you for the amazing figure, StickyBones.
Milo :D

This figure has the best quality ever, definitely worth the price!!!
Myles S.
it came really fast im in australia and it was only a week delivery which was perfect and the figure is incredible and i cant wait to use to
Michael G.
Easy enough to piece together. Though like everybody else, the feet were a challenge. These are superior models to draw from and I look forward to using them for drawing exercises. Highly recommend.
Anil B.
Fantastic figure posing, better than expected easy to put together. Tried all kinds of crazy poses, and it just works flawlessly! The Sticky figure has such range of flexibility that I can create gesture like fluid poses! Thank You Stickybones!

Overall, this is a very solid mannequin used for drawing and posing. Though, it does come with a few of its caveats:
1. Assembly isn't too complicated, but labels are strongly needed for a user to identify left and right parts of the body. I had to rely on subtle height differences in elements such as elbow divisions in order to get things right.
2. It's nice that the mannequin joints are rigid, but it's not as fun when they pop out so easily. If not careful, you will expect yourself to pop the figure pretty often due to how hard it is to move. In my case, I find the shoulder joints to be pretty difficult to move inwards and outwards, leading to popping off the arms pretty often. With my bundle containing the fly arm, the tendons also pop off very easily. This is especially the case for the fingers. I can imagine losing them very easily if you're working over a carpet floor.
3. Not so much of an issue for me, but this mannequin is definitely for those who are more familiar with anatomy proportions. If you're someone such as an anime artist who relies more heavily on mannequins for reference, the current stickybones might not be the best fit, as the figure has longer body parts and a smaller head. Its range of motion, however, is some of the best I've seen, which makes this mannequin very good for intermediate to advanced artists who don't want to use a mirror for poses too much.

Bought this as a gift for our son for his birthday. We absolutely love this thing. Great quality and worth every penny! Thank you.
Dillon O.
Very excited about using it. It is very nicely made and feels sturdy.
ANTONIO T.
My son love it. He enjoys it. He uses the sticky ones figures to draws his anime characters. Just one thing. Two fingers would not go in place. The joints were not fully round. But he was cool with it. Thanks
Elijah S.
Fun! Its a very poseable figure. I've given it this little stick for a staff.
Stefani A.
It's an awesome product. It can assume a lot of different poses. Really good quality.
Conall M.
Love it so much ❤️❤️❤️

What an upgrade from the old barely bendable wooden mannequin I was trying to use. Love how well made this is and useful for understanding body movements.
Allison P.
I often have a hard time coming up with poses for drawing and have spent a long time trying to compensate for that with 3D software, but nothing beats having something in your hands that you can fiddle with for brainstorming - especially something with such incredible range of motion.
caterina c.
It has already helped me with some poses, love it
G C.
An incredible figure. The plastic quality feels great, the build experience is simple, and the posability is just a dream. Not to mention, the base plate and flight stands are so creative: using magnets in the hands and feet open up so much posing options thanks to the metal base plate. The stickybones is such an incredible little figure, perfect for whatever you need: an art reference figure, a stop motion actor, or just something you wanna play and pose with. My only, singular negative, is that there are no additional accessories. Mind you, just posing the guy is so much fun, but when I need to draw something that has weapons or a silhouette-defining clothing piece, it does lose me a little. An accessory system that uses the hand and feet magnets would be so unique! Even just three different lengths of stick and/or some gun shaped objects would work so well.
Also, I really appreciate the compact, plasticless box; really efficient and so freeing for storage!
Benjamin B.
Didn't expect to like it so much.
Other models tend to put more focus on more detailed muscles, but since it's hard plastic, they're always going to be incorrect. This one has the simplest and most useful information, arguably the only thing you need.
And the joints. The JOINTS. You can actually put the model in a pose you want, any pose that a human could realistically do, and it's heavy and solid enough to stay strong in pose on its metallic disk, even if the pose is on the verge of falling, so you can keep that momentum for as long as you need.
Highly recommend; by far the best articulated model I've seen; comparison to any other feels insulting tbh.
Erwin L.
I was so excited to receive my sticky bones. The material of the figure is top notch and amazed on how many positions you can make with it. The fly rig is also amazing. You can make your figure look like its jumping or swinging through the city like a popular super hero we all know. The fly rig was missing a magnet and I contacted customer support and Lauren was able to send me another magnet. Overall great product, great customer service. I look forward to see what they release next! The only tough decision for me was which color to choose.
Jamie C.
Amazing figure! love it along with the fly rig this actually is my 3rd sticky bones figure that's how good they are and when I ordered my first sticky bones it said it would come in September but when I contacted customer service they dhortend it to just 4 days!
Thank you
John F.
awesome way to get a pose and draw from multiple angles. the action arm attachment puts this above any other posable reference manikin, and they just look bada##
DANIEL B.
I love drawing this little figure!
Jessica B.
I bought this for my 11 year olds birthday. He’s been doing stop animation for a while and I wanted to get him something strong but easy to manipulate. This product was a great fit, he’s loved it!
Kevin P.
Sound…. Recommend…. Enough said.
justin w.
Stellar figure with the ability to pose any way needed!
Nicky
I’m an artist, and using this figure has helped a LOT with dynamic poses (especially with added perspective). Definitely worth the money if you’re looking to improve your art skills or use for stop-motion animation!!
Samuel P.
I’m really happy, the figure is as cool and functional as it looks! If I could change anything attaching the fingers to the hand w wire or something would prevent them from popping off when adjusting. The head socket is not as tight as the others, it holds in place perfectly well, but will move w a slight bump where all the other joints are both easy to move when you want and unlikely to move by accidental touch.
Ricardo P.
It is an Awesome Product!!! I love it
It helps me a lot with my 3D animations.
I highly recommend it for any type of animator.
Easy to work with. Easy to pose. It would be awesome if they had some props for it.
Edmond D.
This is my second one. When I put it down with my other one a fight broke out between them. I love them. I'm ordering the candy red right now because I need a referee.
Anastasiya A.
The figure is great, we love it!
i wish it came with something to help when joints get a bit loose (the neck joint was a bit loose to begin with), but I can figure it out.
Seth F.
10/10 would recommend.
Eric C.
Great figure. Love the magnets and reflective base.
Paulo D.
My son loved it!! Great quality materials... It has all the mobility he was looking for.
Christian I.
The delivery time was very fast!! It was internationally shipped in less then 2 weeks.Usually I wait Montessori for stuff to arrive.And they left a "thx" on the item description.Cant wait to build and use the figure
Candace C.
Great quality and not hard to assemble.
Joshua S.
I absolutely love these figures so much and when it comes to studying gestures and body movements for art it makes my life so much easier.
Valerie
Good figure overall very posable magnets make endless possibilities only downside is it can be easy for limbs to fall off but also very good can hold things with it as it can withstand some weight
BRIAN O.
I don’t think anyone that would order these would be disappointed.
I bought two and gave one to my brother for Christmas.
I’m very happy with my purchase and feel confident that I am not alone in wishing you a well deserved success in the future.

My grandson loves it!

I love the posable figure! It’s very well made. :-)
Naomi M.
My son loves this gift. He said it will be very helpful in his design drawings.
Ulrike A.
Dressed for action. All the way in Germany…he travelled many miles. He was the Christmas-gift for my son and we might need another one for his brother. They are really excited and are making stop-motion movies all day long.
Leandro D.
It made an awesome Christmas gift!
Alyssa G.
Very annoyed. Ordered this over a month ago and it hasn't been received at all!!
Andrew P.
Im thoroughly impressed, they are not called sticky bones for no reason, im eager to use it for stop motion and 2d art. They also are usa made which i support. I have yet to experience fracturing so good hopes continue.
Heather I.
Excellent quality. Joints are not flimsy and the poses hold exceptionally well. Amazing setup with mirror base and the magnets keep everything where you place them.
mirna b.
I received my sticky bones, and I love it!
I had an original one but my teenage son loved it and he would not give it back, now I have a better and more beautiful one.
ZAID M.
shipping was incredibly slow
Alexandre K.
I love it so far! It's a well built rig!

5/5 stars, a 6/5 if there were a 12 inch version ("Stickybones Deluxe"?) that could fit like, Barbie/Ken clothes, ha ha.
The material has a heft for its size that is substantial. The plastic for the body is matte, smooth the touch, but has the slightess bit of texture/give that allows the joints to have a bit more grip to hold a pose. Think a really hard silicon.
The default hands are the more traditional "harder"/ "shiny" plastic, and the tiny finger joints tend to pop off as easily as they pop on for it, but since there are finger joint replacements as well posed, solid plastic hand "kits" it's all but a non issue, really.
The figures are easy to put together mechanically (the most difficult pieces the assemble are the feet, as they are the smallest joints that have that "give" factor and there are two lined side by side), as well as easy to understand instructions. The suggested instruction video explaining the orientation of the pieces/techniques for assembly makes it a breeze.
The figures hold their poses, and can hold their own weight and then some. Even an amateur such as myself can create fun, expressive poses with them.
As mentioned half jokingly at the beginning of this review, a 11.5 inch or 12 inch version of the figure would only amplify the strengths of Stickybones, but I understand keeping with the one, standard size they started out with.
Well done, Stickybones crew.
Andrew L.
Great poses! Even used it for a project in school.
Mario C.
It's very well made and the joints offer a wide range of motion, the hands are also expressive but I've noticed the tips tend to fall off.
Also, the parts aren't labeled.
Overall a 10/10 I've enjoyed it and it's made my projects more streamlined, I hope you guys release one with a feminine physique, don't know how'd that be, but anyways love the product.
Daniel B.
It’s a great visual tool for artists. Would highly recommend to any artists who want to get better at figure drawing.
Sherrie C.
I bought this for my son who is an artist with emphasis on sculpting who works in Hollywood. I thought it was pretty pricey but decided it was a good choice after all when I saw his reaction.
He knew about stickybones and was delighted to get the figure, having chosen a cheaper product first and been disappointed. He loves this stickybones man for the fine flexibility it has. He says it will save him all kinds of time in testing out posing ideas and for getting proportions accurate! We're very happy with it! I've also purchased 3 more figures for my 3 grandsons who are into animation. They had been dreaming of having stickybones figures. It'll be a fun Christmas for them!
Chloe B.
Bought as a gift for my husband and it was very easy and quick to put together and super fun to pose. Now I want more to create stop motion shorts!
John P.
Very pose-able! I use it for reference when drawing characters for animation
Corbyn G.
It is a very versatile little guy, that is for sure
Patrick J.
Perfect! The figure and stand are very well made and perfectly designed to allow for a wide range of poses. The Magnetic hands and feet are brilliant! Posing is so easy.
Bryan t.
I love it so much, it has all the pose abilities that I wanted to make and draw, thank yiu so much, if you want to see it in action my instagram is @redhawl26
Marvin R.
Bought this after seeing a couple videos on youtube. Blown away by the articulation and high quality build. Learning how to do stop motion and this is the best figure out there.
Justine E.
It'll definitely take some time to get used to posing it, but it's great! Very articulate indeed. The fly-rig is pretty useful too. Hope to get a lot of mileage with the figure.
Rashin O.
I just started using this figure recently and I’m absolutely IN LOVE with it. I’ve never had such an articulate figure with adjustable fingers. It makes it so much easier for me to make my own poses instead of hoping I find a good enough reference for the angle I’m trying to do. This is one of my best purchases in a LONG time
oh d.
The best figure in history.
I've wanted to buy this for months.
Now I finally bought it,
and it is very, very satisfying.
Every position is possible for this figure.
Even the color is perfect for me.
Endless praise to the team SB!
Angel G.
Finally, I can do those aerial poses I've been struggling with properly
Jason M.
I saw StickyBones on Instagram. It was a Friday and also a holiday weekend. I ordered. 3 days later my new best friend showed up. He was very easy to assemble and I have been drawing him non-stop since. I can see my art changing. Thank you very much.
Alex T.
Loved it the second I saw it. Can be moved around to any pose you can think of, it is my first posting figure and I am going to try to get into stop motion. There was great customer service. I wasn’t sure about the price, but when I got it I knew it was worth every penny.
Melvin C.
Exactly what I needed! Amazing!
Jorge P.
I was surprised by the quick replies and transparency about the Glacier Blue pre order delay, and even MORE surprised when I got the email about changing the color for no extra charge. I don’t even remember how I came across Stickybones, but this is my first one and I love it SOOO MUCH!!! I bought fabric to make clothing for it so i can take pictures of it. The figure arrived Wednesday and I’ve been waiting for this long weekend JUST to mess around with it without having the worry about school!
Mike L.
This is my 3rd Stickybones figure. In my opinion these are the best posable figures for drawing/animation reference on the market. I use them for working out action sequences to checking dynamic poses.
Highly recommended.
Leo F.
Super cool action figure/drawing model. Didn’t think a figure would match or surpass my 1000toys Synthetic Human 1/12 figures, but Stickybones does! Ease of poseability and greater size makes Stickybones my new favorite figure.
Super recommended for those who want ACTION in their figures.
Joe S.
This is a good product I hope I get another one
Jeremiah M.
They said it was posable, and it really is. The best part is, with the magnetic base and the tight joints, it holds a pose. The only issue I have is that the fingers sometimes detach when I pose them, but they’re so tiny, it’s excusable.
Anthony P.
Amazing! Just amazing! Won’t find a better figure for referencing every type of position/action that you can think of! Beautifully made and sturdy! Assembling is fun as well! :)
Amonte R.
Very flexible and way better than anything else I would find on Amazon for anatomy! I was so excited when I received it and noticed how it had really good joint connections and ligaments. I also liked how spine design had more body language poses! The gesture options are very accurate and expressive!
Karino G.
Am n love, i got the white and the blue one, can wait to get yellow one. And the rest of then. I will definitely collect then all.
Sean B.
Picked it up on a significant sale to replace an old wooden anatomy reference figure and it's turned into a really delightful desk toy. Incredibly happy with the purchase!
Matt M.
The quality is really solid! I'm obsessed with posing this thing!
Adrian C.
I regret not buying two to create fighting situations. Also, it will be so great to have other types of figures, like cats, dogs, creatures.
Mein S.
This is my 3rd sticky bones !
Bosco L.
It is the greatest Mannequin ever. I think it will be much better if the figure has 5 fingers and hope there will be a female version.
Andrew L.
Great figure! Fast and easy posing for complicated and customized poses
Wish the price was lower, but otherwise great!
Moond D.
I bought it for a drawing model, not stop motion, and I am very satisfied with the very flexible pose and the strength of the magnet.
Dejamara L.
I’m so in love with these figures! This is my second figure only about a week after my first purchase. I named this one Casper. He’s so cool and the experience with them feels a lot better then just having a wooden doll. My husband himself said why not get a wooden one. And I replied because I’m not going to buy a dozen wooden ones and come on they have magnets in them lol. Once they arrived and I set them up my same husband stated “ok babe you got me these are pretty cool and I see why they cost as much” . I love how well light and shadow show up on this shade of white. For some reason I could never grasp the concept of drawing light and shadow and now it makes so much more sense. Job well done guys ✨
Leonardo G.
Product came out great!, and I love that it came with a cute hand written gel pen message!
tafseer c.
Not since the invention of penicillin has humanity taken such a step forward as a species. There are some who say world peace is naive, to them I say, nay. The fact that we as an evolved creature have the capacity to create such figures throws all critiques of Capitalism the wayside. Basically, the figure is pretty neat and I like it a bunch.
Christopher R.
Really enjoying this figure so far! I wanted to try an upgrade from an old BodyKun figure and while there is less muscular detail on Stickybones they are MUCH more posable and have VERY tight joints to hold any pose. The Feet magnets are a nice touch as well, you can pull off one foot poses without issue.
Paraskoviia P.
I was at first reluctant about the purchase as I am a student and my budget is limited, but the product did not dissapoint. It was one of the fastest deliveries from USA to Europe I have ever experienced, I was honestly shocked at how fast it came. The product its self is wonderful, the amount of possibilities of posing is endless.
Nicholas K.
This review is hard to put into words. It’s whimsical meets crash dummy. It’s possibility meets durability. The magnetic components located in the hands and feet is one giant posable finger to you gravity. Never again shall our models fall, never again shall the unannounced vibrations from our pets and children bring down our beloved poses. With such a sleek design, Maverick could break Mach 11. This is my first sticky bones and I hope it isn’t my last. Do I need every single color available? Absolutely not. But do I want every single color? You bet your bones I do.
Ivan B.
Great product and quality. Very easy to setup!
Liam M.
This is by far the best articulated figure I have ever held. Let’s not forget how well it feels and is also the sturdiest. This is something every artist should have. I love collecting action figures but also have a love for stop motion and this is a figure that made even animating easier. It’s taking my understanding of movement ahead by months within the first use. I absolutely love sticky bones and the customer service is by far the best in the business! If you are hesitant on getting one because of the price; I will say it is worth every penny. Trust me and the reviews ^^
