Post-generation[]

Copper golem statues are created when a copper golem gets fully oxidized. It will freeze in any pose and drop any items that it holds.

Usage[]

Posing[]

Copper Golem Statues can change its pose by interacting with it. It cycles through four poses:

  • Standing - Normal/Default
  • Sitting
  • Running
  • Star

Oxidation[]

Like most copper blocks, unwaxed copper golem statues undergo 4 stages of oxidation:

  • Unoxidized - Normal stage
  • Exposed
  • Weathered
  • Oxidized

Only lightning and axes can reverse the oxidation process. Using a honeycomb on an unwaxed copper golem statue prevents the oxidation.

Using an axe on an unwaxed unoxidized copper golem statue reverts it back to a normal unwaxed unoxidized copper golem.

Interacting by Redstone[]

Redstone Comparators can read the state of a copper golem statue. It emits a redstone signal strength based on its pose.

Trivia[]

  • Waxed Weathered Copper Golem Statue will be the longest name of a block, at 35 characters including spaces and 31 without, surpassing polished blackstone pressure plate and cracked polished blackstone bricks.
  • When in a star pose, the statue seemed to be a bit off-centred from the block selection outline. However, it has been fixed in Snapshot 25w34b [1]
