Armor Stand 12 Poses
Armor Stand 12 Poses lets a redstone signal cycle armor stands through twelve Bedrock-style poses, with the stands spawning with arms.
What it does
A stand changes pose when a redstone signal reaches it from exactly one block away, and each signal moves it to the next of twelve positions. Players can also change the pose by interacting with the stand directly. Redstone components such as torches, repeaters, comparators, buttons and levers are supported, provided the signal is placed correctly; even a slight misplacement stops the system from working.
The mod works in single-player and multiplayer worlds, and it is distributed as a data pack placed in the world's datapacks folder. Its own files target 1.21.5 – 1.21.7 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the latest build, 1+mod for 1.21.7, was published on 2025-07-18. Because the server requires the mod, it must be installed on the server, while players may leave it out. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Twelve Bedrock-style poses
Each pose change moves the armor stand to the next of twelve positions, matching the Bedrock Edition set.
Redstone-driven pose change
A signal from exactly one block away advances the pose, so pose changes work with ordinary redstone circuits.
Automatic arms
Armor stands spawn with arms, so players can hold shields, swords and other items on them.
Manual interaction
Interacting with a stand changes its pose without any redstone setup.

How it compares
Strike a Pose is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, with files for 1.21 – 26.2, and it needs the server while a client may run it too. Armor Stand Arms also works on the server with the client optional, but it is open source under the MIT License and covers 1.16 – 26.3, and it adds arms without the pose cycle.
