How to Use the Minecraft Armor Stand Generator
Armor stands in Minecraft are versatile entities that hold armor, items, and can be posed into custom positions using NBT data. This generator creates the /summon command you need to spawn an armor stand with any pose, equipment, or display setting — no manual NBT editing required.
Step 1: Choose a Pose
Select a preset pose like Walking, Zombie, or Archer to get started quickly, or manually adjust the X, Y, and Z rotation sliders for each body part. The X axis controls pitch (forward/backward), Y axis controls yaw (left/right turn), and Z axis controls roll (side tilt). Each axis accepts values from -180 to 180 degrees.
Step 2: Add Equipment
Type Minecraft item IDs into the equipment fields to give the armor stand items. For example, enter diamond_helmet for the head slot or diamond_sword for the main hand. You need ShowArms enabled for hand items to be visible.
Step 3: Set Display Options
Toggle options like Invisible to hide the stand body (equipment still shows), No Base Plate for floating displays, Small for baby-sized stands, or Marker for zero-hitbox stands that players can walk through. Combine Invisible + Marker to create floating item displays.
Step 4: Copy and Use
Click the Copy Command button, open Minecraft, press T to open chat, paste the command, and press Enter. You need operator permissions or cheats enabled. The armor stand spawns at your current position.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Minecraft versions support armor stand poses?
Armor stand pose NBT data works in Minecraft Java Edition 1.8 and above. Bedrock Edition uses a different format and does not support the /summon NBT syntax — use this generator for Java Edition only.
How do I make an invisible armor stand in Minecraft?
Enable the "Invisible" checkbox in the Options section. This adds Invisible:1b to the NBT data, hiding the stand body while keeping equipped items visible. Combine with "No Base Plate" to remove the stone slab at the bottom.
Can armor stands hold items in both hands?
Yes, but you must enable "Show Arms" first (ShowArms:1b). Without this tag, armor stands have no visible arms and cannot hold items. Once enabled, fill in the Main Hand and Off Hand equipment fields with item IDs.
What is the Marker tag on armor stands?
The Marker tag (Marker:1b) makes the armor stand have zero hitbox size, so players and entities can walk through it. Marker stands cannot be broken by hitting them — use /kill @e[type=armor_stand] to remove them. This is ideal for decorative builds.
How do I create floating item displays?
Combine Invisible + No Base Plate + No Gravity + Show Arms. Set the main hand to the item you want to display. The result is an invisible armor stand that holds a floating item at its hand position. Use Marker to prevent players from accidentally breaking it.
What are the rotation axes for armor stand poses?
Each body part has three rotation axes: X (pitch — tilts forward/backward), Y (yaw — turns left/right), and Z (roll — leans sideways). Values range from -180 to 180 degrees. For example, setting a leg's X to -90 bends it forward into a sitting position.
