I then opted to use this prompt framework with my details entered to see if my image would match up to my ideal finished article:
Create an image of an action figure in packaging labeled ‘[insert label]’ with sub heading ‘[insert sub heading]'. Use the attached photo as a reference for the face. She/he is [insert height] and [insert appearance including clothing and hand held accessories]. The cardboard section should be [insert colour(s)]. Include an 'Accessories' section with [insert items]. Put all of their accessories on the [left/right] side of the packaging and labeled [insert label]. Top right corner has a [insert colour(s)] sticker with the text '[insert text/slogan]’. Make the design visually appealing and reflective of a [insert occupation]. [Do/do not] include the character image on packaging.
This is my result:

I was pretty impressed with the likeness, so I decided to turn this image into an animated figure using Kling AI website. Here is the fabulous end result. Enjoy...
