An introduction to Star Wars 3d printing of accessories and weapons for 3.75" figures from 1977-1985

An introduction to Star Wars 3d printing of accessories and weapons for 3.75" figures from 1977-1985

Welcome to my new website and first attempt away from the traditional selling sites. I started as a collector who after many years of my childhood figures being in a box in the loft I thought it was time to dust them off. I had just over 40 at the time and little did I know that owning a Yak Face and a Blue Snag were a couple of the more sought after figures available ( sadly they were not in their packaging).

It was during covid and although was still working was looking for things to do and after researching I would collect a full loose run to display.  I quickly found that figures like Dengar, Weequay and of course Lobot were easy to find, but I started to realise that many did not have the original accessories and those that did were a lot more expensive and went quickly. I researched and found suppliers for capes and moulded weapons and tried to sell a few to see if others were in the same boat. There are quite a few of us ! so i set up regular orders which i continued to 2024. 

However in 2024 prices were going up and up and the range was very limited, this is where i researched into 3D printing and started to design items that I could not already find. lets just say 3D printing is not for everyone, it takes a lot of time and patience and is very messy and PPE is required. over the last year I have tested many designs, colours and strength of resin's and continue to always look for better and more accurate products. 

Feel free to drop me an email either about feedback on existing items or ones you think i should supply and I can see what I can do. 

I will try and update weekly on all things new or anything you think i should cover let me know. 

Bye for now MTFBWY Eli
