    I'm working on a 3d printable turntable system, for my product design course. It should be just the right size for displaying Legends/Legends+ figures, maybe some chug/ss as well, and all the files will be uploaded for free when it's finished

    At this stage, I need community feedback so I can start work on the functional prototype, so any answers to the survey are greatly appreciated!
    3D printed display turntables

    The turntables are fully tileable, so you can connect as many together as you like, with minimal assembly required (only need to print 3 parts + 8 bearings per turntable). You can also substitute your own marbles/ball bearings, if you already have some.

    You can also put a module over the motor to display some information on what you're displaying

    I added a warning to the first post.

    Thanks for the assist!

    In California, looks like he uses Facebook as I couldn't find a site, and I have no idea about rep as I've never used him before, but I have heard of him.

    Might I suggest messaging your preferred retailer and asking them to stock the figure? Showing interest makes the retailer more likely to carry something.

    His and a couple others.

    All of Mastermade's figures have base modes. Most have a third mode. I think Omega is one exception, but he makes a pretty wicked spaceship as well.

    They look to be modeled after the MP ones in terms of transformation, but I'd absolutely get them nonetheless. Not enough cassetticon.

    since MS tapes aren't supposed to be due out for release until October, i'd hold off and see what NA puts out and how they are packaged.
