Want to turn yourself into an action figure? Thanks to AI tools like ChatGPT and DALL·E, you can. No design skills needed—just a little creativity and the right prompt.

In this post, we’ll show you exactly how to do it using the viral "Michael the Marketer" figure as an example.


Step 1: Choose Your Look

Start with a clear photo of yourself (or whoever you want to turn into a figure). A front-facing image with good lighting works best. The more detailed the image, the better the likeness in your figure.


Step 2: Write the Prompt

This is where the magic happens. You describe the action figure in detail, including:

  • The name of the figure

  • The outfit and accessories

  • The packaging style

  • Any logos, brands, or extras you want to include


Here’s the exact prompt we used for Michael the Marketer:

Create an image of a 3D action figure toy named 'Michael Marketer'.Display it in transparent plastic blister packaging. The  figure resembles the person in the photo, styled with short brown hair and smiling. On the top of the packaging, write 'Michael the Marketer' in white text, followed by 'Marketing Agency: July Grey' below.The figure is dressed in golf attire with a baby blue golf shirt, navy blue pleated golf pants, white golf shoes.Include supporting items like a golf club, MacBook Pro, Filson 24-Hour bag, and a green YETI tumbler.The packaging design is minimalist, with a cardboard color and a cute toy style. Place the July Grey logo in the top right corner.

Step 3: Generate the Image

Use a tool like ChatGPT to submit your prompt and photo. The model will create a custom-rendered image that looks like a real toy still in its packaging.


Step 4: Download and Share

Once the image is ready, download it and share it on social media. Tag it with #ChatGPTActionFigure or #AIActionFigure to join the trend.


 

Bonus Tips

  • Add fun traits or tools based on your personality or job

  • Make a series (e.g., you in business mode, vacation mode, weekend mode)

  • Use them as profile pictures, gifts, or even stickers for your team
