Armor Stand

Armor stands are entities that are able to hold and display wearable items.

Obtaining
An armor stand can be broken by it twice quickly.

Usage
Players can use armor stands to hold armor, mob heads and pumpkins, dispensers can apply a shield to it, and commands can be used to give them other items. The stand does not have a GUI, so players interact with it directly. Armor stands are also able to be placed in different orientations, similar to banners or signs. Armor stands are entities, allowing them to be pushed by pistons, moved by flowing water, and bounced by slime blocks. When an armor stand is placed on top of a fence or similar such block, it will fall through it instead of being placed on top.

armor on the stand will place the armor, if done on a bare spot. Conversely, clicking on armor with a bare hand will remove the armor and place it in the highlighted hot-bar slot. By default, it is not possible to take or place items from the armor stand's hands.

Armor, a mob head or a pumpkin can be automatically placed on armor stands with a dispenser.

Armor stands can be customized further to have arms, pose, disobey gravity, dual wield and other things by summoning them using with NBT tags.

In maps heavily using command blocks, armor stands can be used to keep scoreboard objectives that are 'global' to the map, run commands, etc.

The pose of the armor stand can be changed by shifting and clicking on the pose button, or by using a red stone signal. There are 13 possible poses. Armor stands can also hold items by clicking on the equip button.

Behavior
Because armor stands are entities, they obey gravity, allowing them to fall and rest on non-full blocks such as enchantment tables, snow layers and slabs.

Armor on the stand will drop when the stand is broken. Armor stands are able to accurately render enchanted and all forms of dyed armor. The effects of most enchanted armor have no effect when on an armor stand, with two exceptions: Frost Walker will create frosted ice blocks on water as usual if an armor stand is pushed with a piston, and Depth Strider will slow the movement of the armor stand when being pushed with water.

Armor stands are not damaged by cactus, but can be broken by arrows. An armor stand destroyed by an explosion will not drop as an item. An armor stand in water and lava at the same time will not be consumed by the lava.

The stand will wobble slightly when being hit by the player.

Data values
Armor stands have entity data associated with them that contain various properties of the entity. Their entity ID is.

Trivia

 * Equipping armor stands with certain blocks and items will cause rendering glitches. According to Searge this is due to transparent rendering on entities not yet being supported.
