Top 10 MechWarrior 3D Printed Figurines

MechWarrior video game abounds in cool robots, tanks, and other infantry, which let’s be honest, is the perfect environment for every boy and man out there.

And if you have ever got the chance to play in this engaging video game, you’re most probably one of those people who has been spending hours on end shooting and fighting from the cockpit of your bipedal BattleMech.

Long lost are the days when you could maneuver your Mech only in the video game. 3D printing is to blame.

The additive technology lets you have your BattleMech outside your computer screen. Oh, and you know what? You can customize it according to your own liking if you have 3D modeling skills. Isn’t that awesome?!

So, we’ve been rummaging through the Internet for beautiful MechWarrior 3D prints. In an honest word, people are amazing. Words can’t describe what they can do with a computer and a 3D printer.

We gathered top 10 most impressive MechWarrior 3D printed figurines.

According to Alexei, the printing took about 1.5 weeks. 4 hours went for assembling the beast.

Since Alexei went and printed the Catapult, the 3D modeler improved the STL files, upding the 3D model and improving the joints to increase the workability of the model. The cockpit of the bipedal machine underwent a facelift, a nose being added, and special slot places to facilitate the mounting of additional weapons. The improved and upgraded 3D model consists of 36 parts, while the previous version numbered 27.
