hehehe...
It is made up very simple: the body is a 1x1x1 with technic hole. On top of
that there is the head. Below there is a part 4081:

Attached to that there are the 1x2x0.33 tiles as legs.
The arms are standard arms from minifigs. Connected to the 1x1x1-technic
brick and each other by a fitting axle (I used a part of a broken
miniantenna). That is not too sturdy though..... The diameter of the joint of
the minifigs arma is bigger than a normal antenna. So you cannot connect these
arms to a 1x1x1 lamp holder brick or the center hole of a technic peg. Maybe
someone else finds a better way to fix them?
I would tend to drill a pair of small holes into a 1x1x1 brick now. I have
such masses of them: I would not regret to 'destroy' them for a useful
purpose.... Still: I would prefer a pure Lego solution.

Thanks!
