World Box AT027 Mini Review

And Worldbox tends to be making long legs like Damtoys bodies, doesn't catch my eyes, but the AT011 long legs fit my old man figure somehow...looks so slim and tall.....

You are welcome. Long legs are usually a good thing, unless of course disproportionate. TBLeague's M33 bothers me, because (without the silly and user-unfriendly extenders) its legs are just a little too short.

I can guess M33 is quite involved a lot of their experiment ideas like a not chunky body but with big biceps, shorter legs with extension, M34 and 35 much more ideal in proportion. I like girls with long legs but for man I rather prefer strong thighs than length XDD....But definitely worldbox at027 is a masterpiece with that details....and I bet it weights a lot too I guess?

@GB. Nice review, really like this body.
-Mine has a loose right hip joint making him fall at a slight nudge of the table.
Had to apply two coats of superglue.
Right shoulder joint a bit loose but manageable. Other joints are tight.
-The fists look quite small for this body, so i used the bigger HT fists instead.

Thank you very much. I hope the joint fix worked out well. Didn't try the fists, perhaps you're right.

thanks for the review, received mine today.

on the upside none of the joints were to lose though the left elbow was stuck, almost had a "mego-melt" feel to it.
at first even the blow dryer didn´t work for it softened the material without making the joint budge.
only after pulling the lower arm from the body and heating the sides of the elbow further it became lose enough to finally move it.

though i was worried to break it if i applied even more force.

the rest of the body feels very sturdy, even massive which, i guess, is a good thing when it comes to keeping balance. like i said, i was lucky enough to get one with stiff joints instead of floppy ones.


on the downside i underestimated the sheer size of it for none of my planned clothings would fit him.
even made a custom vault suit by hand (7 hours of sewing without a machine for i don´t own one) only to have made it to small, bummer.

as for head sculpts, the "one toys" logan head sculpt fits it as far is i can see on the first try without suffering from giraffe. the chin seems to match up with the adams apple so it looks good in my book.

anyone else having trouble finding proper clothes for the body ?

cheers
was going for some old washed up vault dweller bash. guess its back to the sewing needle =)

Welcome, Tjolnir, glad you liked it and the body itself. Great that you found a good head for it soo easily, but yes, it is a rather tall/large body, so clothing it appropriately would be a challenge. I'm sure you can give the outfit you had prepared to another figure, while you make a new one for this one.

Resurrecting this thread, as I'm considering finally getting one of these.

Question for GF (or anyone else who has one) -- what is the actual measurement of the neck? As in, the width at the top. Before buying one, I need to find out if the head I want to use will actually fit on it...

It depends on exactly where you measure, as it tapers inward toward the top. The part where the head would typically sit is about 2 cm wide. The outside walls of the neck narrow to about 1.5 cm, but that part would be concealed. I did notice some heads might have too narrow an opening to sit naturally on it. You if that will be an issue for the head sculpt of your choice, you might consider a TBLeague M34 or M36 instead -- there the neck is malleable and if need be can be widened through stuffing.

Thanks for taking the time to share the measurements! I'll dig out the head in question and compare. It's just a rather expensive body and I wouldn't want to get my hopes up only to have them dashed the moment I try it on. ;p

As you say, one of the tbleague's might be a safer bet when it comes to the neck, cause at least the necks on those are squishy so there's some give.

No problem. Yes, M34 or M35 would work very well, unless (a) the necks are too thick for the head -- they would still fit, but look funny -- or (b) the clothes you have in mind don't fit on them.

That looks like a great body, nicely articulated too!

I wish the AT017 had the same shoulder articulation . Looks good .

Thanks guys. I like it too, just wish the ankles on mine weren't so weak.
