Minimum articulation requirement in order for me to purchase a figure (custom fodder not included):
ARAH O-RING level articulation (minus the swivel waist).
Preferred level of articulation:
Lanard Corps! ELITE Titan figure. It's basically a modern update of the ARAH design.
I think Zica Toys action figure designs are a close 2nd to Lanard but I prefer the single knee hinge over double and don't *need* ankle hinges. I do prefer Zica toys solid swivel waist though.
The ARAH design is all that's needed for a functional true action figure. Anything beyond that increases the chance of breakage (of the figure aesthetics or the figure itself). Hip articulation that doesn't allow a figure to at least slightly widen its stance is a toy crime outside of toys for children under 6 years old.
