Something is seriously wrong
OKAY so with my measurements I also nabbed stupidly large pictures which for some reason I cannot shrink the file size of! so I cropped them in MS paint like a true professional ok here they are
With the assistance of Metru Mike, my lovely mangled corpse of a moc from a long time ago, I will show you any and all physical variation of the Metru torso! Whoopie doo
This is the shoulder width with and without bushings. 5 stud width without bushings and 7 stud width with bushings. Also yes that is a red pin, is your blood seething yet?
The measurement of the hips is 5 stud width from ball center to ball center and one stud down to account for the geared center portion of the piece. I don’t know if TTV or anyone wants to get literally that specific with it but I will do my duty regardless.
With the Iruini-style torso armor, it adds one unit worth to the depth of the torso, which from the shoulder is 3 studs’ worth. The distance from shoulder to back extension is also 3 studs’ worth, for anyone curious.
And the Norik-style torso adds two units, making it 4 studs’ worth from the shoulder. For those still curious, the back is still 3 studs’ worth.
Now I literally did not get a picture of the measurement of the hips’ distance from the torso when at its closest configuration, so you will have to take my word for it that it’s 4 studs’ worth. Please believe me.
Here is the second configuration, which is - you guessed it - five studs’ worth. Iruini is so proud of his emaciated waist. Ok apparently not Ok apparently actually yes
Here is the third and last normal configuration, which sits at 6 studs’ worth. Angle made this difficult to prove and I highly recommend someone crosscheck me on all of this.
EDIT: Apparently Iruini is actually THIS tall and THIS emaciated get the dude a sandwich my goodness
EDIT EDIT: No I was right the first time, get him half a sandwich
And here, for the absolutely mentally ill, is the most ludicrous hip placement I have ever seen in my life. It’s technically possible, but it could not possibly stand without other parts built around it to keep it remotely sturdy. If you make a moc with this, you have a problem. This orientation sits at 7 studs’ worth.
EDIT: I am stupid tiny brain dumb dumb I cannot believe I completely forgot: you can just push the hips up into the gearbox area which makes the smallest configuration 3 studs from hip ball to top midsection axle. I apologize I am literally dumb brain
And uh… That’s it. Neck differences are yours to determine and I don’t think that anyone’s going to make too stupid of a neck, but again, your decision. Let me know what you guys thought of Metru Mike’s performance.
