The top of the box reads "ALEX" in bold letters with "PRODUCT DESIGNER" underneath. Glossy molded-plastic finish with visible joints; keep the face, glasses, hairstyle and outfit. The package hangs on a store peg hook, soft studio light, realistic toy product photo.

Tips for a better figure
Name 3–5 accessories that say something about you: a camera, running shoes, a guitar, a laptop.
Keep “keep the face, glasses, hairstyle and outfit” in the prompt; it is what makes the figure look like you.
Ask for “glossy molded plastic” and “visible joints” for a toy look, or “matte vinyl” for a designer-toy look.
For a printable image, pick 3:4 and a 2K or 4K size on Nano Banana Pro.
This makes an image of a toy, not a physical toy. To get one made, send the image to a 3D-printing or custom figure service.
FAQ
What is the AI prompt to create an action figure?
Describe the figure, the packaging and the accessories, and tell the model to keep your face. The “Boxed action figure” prompt on this page is a complete example you can copy.
How do I do the ChatGPT action figure trend here?
Pick GPT Image 2 VIP in the comparison above, click “Use this” and upload your photo. The same prompt also runs on Nano Banana Pro and Seedream 5.0 Flash; all three kept the face recognizable in our sample, and Seedream costs $0.018.
Can I make an action figure of my dog or cat?
Yes. Use the “Pet action figure” or “Pet to plush toy” template and upload a photo where the fur colors and markings are clear.
How much does it cost?
You pay per image: $0.018 on Seedream 5.0 Flash, $0.03 on GPT Image 2 VIP, $0.055 on Nano Banana 2 and $0.09 on Nano Banana Pro. New users get $0.1 of free credit after signing in with Gmail.
How do I get a real figure made from the image?
YingTu makes the image only. Custom figure and 3D-printing services can work from it; a front view on a plain background helps them most.
Can I make a figure of a celebrity or a character?
Use photos of yourself or people who agreed to it. Figures of real public figures or trademarked characters can break the model providers’ rules and are often refused.
