So Black and Durable after going through my Form Cure are both way to hard/brittle to make this. Is there a FormLabs 2 resin that can do this print? Would Flexible actually be flexible enough for a 90 degree bend?

I suggest to try to change the cure time on durable resin, maybe a shorter cure leave more elastic resin

Cute little Robby.

With really thin hinge joints like that the Durable would do great…  
However, I’m not sure the Form 2 can manage the printed live joints in the arms and legs- though with durable you could absolutely make those parts separate with high tolerance snap fits.
