Worldbox GIRLS BODY (jointed female figure) at201/202

Has anyone tried to use the hands from these Worldbox bodies on a TBLeague normal body?

I don't remember, but I think they work. What I do remember is that the male feet do work (with the female feet, there have been two different foot pegs, so it might depend on that).

My At202 body just arrived. I simply loved the proportions, especially from the legs, and I appreciate even more the hands and feet fine details seeing it in-hand (no punnintendo).

Now I wanna know if the shoulder joint is really that stiff or it's a problem with my copy. I struggled A LOT to raise and lower the arms sideways just by a little. I'm afraid to break the joint from the force I have to make to move it.

Also, damn, those broad hips, plump badonkadonk and rigid thunder thighs pose a challenge to dress them up. I got no clothes that go through it. She's gonna remain "the same way as she came to this world" for a while... unless... how easily can I detach and reattach the legs? Gotta build up the courage to try it out. Also, gotta try those hands on a TBL. Wish me luck.

As for articulation, in my opinion, it's a mix of hit and miss.
* The joints hold well any position you leave 'em.
* The torso part is pretty decent. The chest part moves really well sideways and back and forth. The abdomen/hips part is rigid.
* The knees and elbows are double jointed and go 90º, a position TBL/Phicen bodies struggle to achieve, much less hold (also are dangerous to tear the skin if you force it).
* In regard to arms, it's perfect, I have no complaints, aside from the overtly stiff shoulder, that I still don't know if it's my bad luck.
* The legs, however, have limited flexibility. They have pretty decent side spread movement, but can't go forward or back very far, cuz the rubber from the hips get in the way. Also no thigh movement, so you can't twist the legs.

Lastly, I wanna say that, unfortunately, the YMToys YMT055 headsculpt hole is too small, doesn't fit the neck peg. Sad, cuz proportion wise, the HS looks nice.

All in all, it's a beautiful body with an unfortunate limited leg movement. Hope they fix this on a future release, cuz it has a lot of potential, so close to be perfect.

I picked up an AT201 a little while back and wanted to get familiar with how it worked, moved, and came apart before I made any judgement.

My first impression was "glad I only paid $40 for this." I was underwhelmed to say the least. Some of it is shock factor coming from seamless to jointed, but some of it was also in the already noted articulation (it is not TBL, but it has its merits).

The joints are also very stiff on mine, but not so bad that I think they'll break from moving them. The torso/chest on mine wants to stay loose, which is a bit obnoxious. The feet and hands are fantastic.

After some time I have grown to enjoy it. I found her a kind of gym-adjacent outfit (I don't own any pants that fit the hips, which is a thing) and made the mental connection that this is more a jumbo Figma than anything. I love Figmas, so that worked wonders for me.

All in all, after some time, she is now my #2 fav body overall. I have pre-ordered the AT203 and one of each for the chest swap parts so I can customize as needed. I love that they are doing that and it is a great move on Worldbox's part.

Here are some quick, basic photos with the headsculpt she now has:

Glad you liked her after all. Those hips are an obstacle, but not insurmountable.

That is one beautiful body (if you don't care about visible joints). The thigh gap looks a little ridiculous to me. Is this something that can be adjusted at the hip joints? Nevermind. Found the answer in the other thread.

I am open to recommendations for them! While I don't mind creating character specific clothing, I don't exactly have the time to make everything else on top of the character specific stuff. I haven't browsed the clothing thread in awhile...have there been any updates that include this body, or just something somewhere? I know stretchy is always the best option, but they gotta stretch well.

Ha! Yeah, the thigh gap is ridiculous. Not as bad with clothing thankfully, though still comical. And just to be certain, the answer you found is it really isn't something you can adjust, right? Curious if I am missing something.

You know these BB(?) ski sniper girl sets? I was able to stuff the smaller of the two bodies (I forget whether it was 201 or 202) in the clothing.

The thigh gap wouldn't be an issue if using for a figure in a gown, which is something I might consider it for....

Actually, I thought it CAN be adjusted. Somebody wrote that the height can be adjusted by changing how the legs sit in the hip socket. I've seen this before on another figure, too. So if you reduce the thigh gap then she will be a few mm taller.
Did I get that wrong?

Stretchy is indeed the best option. You can find some by TimeasCreations on Etsy. They have stretchy and non-stretchy, sixth scale and twelfth scale, some specifically for Phicen bodies, some not. And not quite as expensive as Hegemony77.

If that is the case, then I am doing something wrong lol. She likes her height, and likes her thigh gap and is sticking to it lol

That is a LOT of leopard print options

Shock and jokes aside, thanks for the links! I will be browsing TimeasCreations store for sure! And looking up this Hegemony77 as well.

There are both pattern and solids options for each item of clothing, which you select from a drop down menu.

I noticed, which is also where I saw all the leopard print lol. They are for sure going to be fun to browse as I like what I have seen!

In particular, I was looking for a small body for my Halloween figure, my choices were the Phicen s25b and the Worldbox AT201.
Despite the fact that tight clothing makes joints more noticeable, the Worldbox silhouette is a winner for me, what do you think?

They both work for me.

Hmmm. While I like the width of the hips on the WB body, I’m with sky on that thigh-gap being just WAY too much, and would be better suited to a dress that covers that up.

I like them both, but that thigh gap kills it for me. I am also unsure as to how much that red top skews perception.

Yeah, frustrating about the weird thigh situation cause I really wanted to use this for some Padme figures. Will probably still do so but maybe only for the ones in gowns.

I think the proportion looks good with the worldbox body, the s25 looks more like a young teen/kid to me in proportion to the pumpkin head

I finally managed to order one of these (AT201 Suntan), and now have to wait for moment of truth to see if it will work with one of my Padme heads...

The one I ordered arrived and the good thing is that my Padme heads fit on it much better than on the Poptoys body (which has a weirdly thick neck). But the downside is that the skintone of course is a bit darker than the tbleague bodies they were supposed to go with, so I'll have to repaint some. Not a huge deal, just glad they fit onto it, as it gives me more options. There are some outfits I want to do with elaborate gowns that really don't need a seamless body, especially if I want to leave them in particular poses.

I also love the hands and feet sculpts. Big plus for me.  

Another possible use for the body with the 'unsightly' thigh gap occurred to me: equestrian figure.

I have never owned this body. I really like it because the body shape is different from normal typical 1/6 scale women blank body. I wonder how is the articulation. Can she do splits, high raise kick or can she bend the waist etc.

New Guy, here. just picked up one of those WB AT201 bodies for my old late-90's "Mamotte Shugogetten!" Shaorin.

since i just ordered it today, i don't have it in hand yet. i sure hope it mates up with her head well,
as it appears to be just what i was looking for in a LONG overdue upgrade from her Gangly old TSUKUDA HOBBY body;
