Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure include mannequins and parts thereof. The disclosure includes descriptions of articulated joints for mannequins, specifically, for positioning and posing mannequins in one or more positions. The disclosure also includes descriptions of retail mannequins and target or tactical mannequins incorporating one or more articulated joints. In the case of a tactical mannequin, a tactical mannequin incorporating one or more articulated joints may have advantages in being able to withstand (e.g., maintain structural and mechanical integrity) under extreme conditions, all the while being cost-effective and being able to be easily re-positioned. Retail mannequins incorporating one or more articulated joints may weigh less than conventional mannequins while being easily repositionable and durable. Another aspect of the present disclosure describes methods of manufacturing mannequins incorporating one or more articulated joints, such as, for example, in a cold rotational molding process.
