Stikfas: History and Key Facts

STIKFAS was a series of 3.25-inch (8cm) model assembly figures or toys made by Stikfas Pte. Ltd., a now-defunct company based in Singapore. Once assembled, they could be customized with stickers (marketed as "Stikers") and parts from other sets. STIKFAS are designed so that all of the joints are moveable ball/sockets, making the figurines poseable and interchangeable.

STIKFAS were sold in kits that include accessories like weapons and pouches, and sometimes additional models such as a dragon, dog, or bicycle, keeping with the theme of the kit. STIKFAS also have small square notches on their bodies, allowing rare earth magnets to be inserted. These notches are found on the upper legs, feet, and body sections. The curved U-shaped hands are also the same diameter as the notches. Once inserted into any of these areas, the magnets allow STIKFAS to be posed while adhering to a magnetic surface, preventing them from falling over. STIKFAS have been used by the webcomic and stop motion animation community.
