Transforming Christmas Tree Mech

Description
At first, it's a festive plastic tree, then you accidently hold it the wrong way and… it transforms into one of several configurations limited only by your imagination! This was originally intended to be a scorpion, but there's plenty of other poses you can make too. Using snap-in ball and socket joints, this tree can turn in to whatever your heard desires with it's 7 fully articulating segments. Snap the fully round end of the connectors into the tree segments first, then the flat sides into the base. May require a bit of force but I haven't had any casualties yet. The only extra bit of assembly is gluing the star into the one unquiet tree segment. See what you can come up with!
There is a bit of a void inside the assembled tree, but it would probably need to be scaled up a bit to get anything decent in there, maybe an gnome or a sneaky elf is piloting this thing… Speaking of scaling, that should work fairly easily since the ball and socket diameters are the same size, just the tiny segment-segment gaps would grow but that can likely be compensated with anyways by the ball joints.
