In the first few seasons, Robot Chicken was using my 8 inch body
for most of the scenes. I never made a 12 inch body.

In later seasons, they found it faster to use clay bodies with
my hands on them for easier posing and manipulation. The
biggest problem with stop animation is keeping the figure
perfectly still until you make a slight movement.

Sort of related...ever thought of making the crazy scientist and chicken as actual figures Paul?

Heh, I've had to do some "emergency gathering" for Robot Chicken twice and had the armiture explained to me, I never noticed it but now I can see the rubbery arms the characters have.

Actually, I approached them about making a line of figures but
the show is the property of Cartoon Network and all they wanted
to talk about was Ben 10.

Of course I realized that the alien is my character, not theirs.
And the secret service guys are mine too. Basically I don't need
their permission to make these.

I see that someone is making bendies or little plastic figures of
the chicken and the doctor along with a bunch of other Adult
Swim characters. I don't think they are selling.
