Reference
If anyone has a bit of trouble on perspective or just coming up with new poses besides a character standing there I came across these...
http://www.microforever.com/2006Matforceindex.htm
You can find them on Ebay, about the only place you will find them. They are actually pretty articulated and help out a lot. Just picked one up 2 weeks ago and they aren't extremely pricey, got it for $15. It kind of a step up from the old wooden posable figures from art classes.
Thought I would share!

Re: Reference
These would be neat if I could find the blanks on ebay at all. Who did you buy them from?

Re: Reference
I won a female one last night actually. The seller is listed as zira28 and I got both of them from them. There were 4 female ones up last night and only the one I purchased sold so I would get a hold of them soon.
I would either contact them or keep an eye out for them. Took me about 2 months of checking on there to finally come across them. They are kinda small (4 inches) but very well worth it I think.

Re: Reference
There all over the place in the yahoo japan auction site. Problem is all I see is blocks and if I did see japanese I have no clue how to read it.

Re: Reference
Nice dude, glad you got a hold of them! I have both of mine now. Hope they help you guys out even if just a little for what a pain in the ass they are to find. It will be there in no time, she ships them very fast for coming from Japan. Ah, how I miss it there.
