Here’s a quick tutorial on how to generate your own action figure using ChatGPT. You can base it on an imaginary character or an existing superhero.

Build a text prompt

All you need is a simple text prompt.

Writing the prompt is easy. Just describe yourself, what you do, and the kind of character you want to become. This is where you can get creative––the sky’s the limit. Along with the prompt, provide a photo of yours, in which your face is clearly visible, and the superhero will resemble you. Don’t forget to include details about accessories, gadgets, or pets you want.

You can start with something simple like:

“List five accessories that would come with a Superman action figure, including one animal sidekick — Krypto.”

And then move on to something more specific:

“Create a detailed character profile for an action figure based on Superman who’s also a journalist. Include personality traits, clothing, weapons, and accessories.”

Finally, refine the prompt:

“Turn this character description into a realistic 3D action figure design.”

Personalise and expand

You can add more details to your prompt — your outfit, your hobbies, or even futuristic gear — to enhance the final design. The more specific and imaginative, the better the output.
