Hello, they are not made of plastic but of a very soft rubber. They are very flexible.

Im no expert on this, but i do have a passion for doing it, even though i never got the chance, i know how it works. First off all, what is your more specific goal?

Stegotyranno420

Yes, Proto Putty is a much better alternative to the expensive sillicone stuff most people use

It would probably be better to find something that starts out liquid to fill it into a mold however before it hardens.
I'll dive further in hopes I find something.
Thanks. I mean MarcoMakes makes his figures through ProtoPutty and they are fine

avatar_Duna @Duna Maybe it's only a German language thing but doesn't rubber count as plastic?
In this case these toys seem to be made of an elastomer of sorts as opposed to more commonly used thermoplastic.
Oh, it may be a Spanish language thing then :D we call plastic to hard plastic and rubber to flexible material as in baby bottles, bath toys ...
