TPU was the most difficult part for me while printing, since it was my first time but it turned out ok. Only the back side of the steeringwheel was a bit of, but that was my own fault. Overall a great print without to much effort.

I'm thoroughly satisfied with the outcome of this print. I made a few modifications to incorporate some logos, which turned out great. It was a snug fit between the head, helmet, torso, and legs, a bit of a fettle fixed this. This was my first time printing TPU, and it couldn't have gone smoother. It has boosted my confidence for more TPU projects. I considered reducing the infill for added flexibility, but the final result not only looks fantastic but also retains the classic wheels' feel

@mathiasdela

wow Lee! it turned out great! great stuff with the colors on the panel aswell! and yes, reducing the infill with the TPU was a great idea!

@Lee1255

Replying to @mathiasdela :

I found the original panel on bricklink and as you already had the pattern on the model I thought why not 😅 I plan to make a few different colours to display, I hope to see more similar projects from you in the future 👍

Lego set 6821 at 300% could be a nice addition as you have a minority of the bricks already 😁

This is a super fun print, thanks! I printed with Bambu Matte PLA and Overture PETG. The buggy went together perfectly, I'd say the only issue is that the pieces are a little loose. I didn't have any black PETG so I used space gray (seemed appropriate...). I printed out the (not so) mini fig and it turned out great! Although I had a problem putting the head on and ended up breaking off the neck stem, so I'm reprinting the torso. I used tree supports and that worked fine. Thanks for sharing this model!

The designer has replied

@mathiasdela

Thanks. Yes, some of the parts are a little loose, but the moving parts works great on my model. I was going to glue the "buggy" anyway but im working on a better hip for the man, cause that was a little too loose. Thanks for the reply and I really like your colorway! (grey and pink works great!)

I love it. it printed very well and I’m going to make a fleet of different colors lol one thing that I noticed. maybe it’s the way I printed it or maybe I should have sanded the pegs down before. but the hip part broke on 2 different prints in the same place. Maybe I should make the infill higher.

The designer has replied

@mathiasdela

I just wrote to the other message but then you got this :D Thanks for the message first of all. And what a great gold color! Mine did the same the first prints but i thought i did make a infill higher at that part? My bad then. I will check tomorrow and if its a problem please let me know so i can make the pegs smaller.

@BusyJon

Replying to @mathiasdela :

haha I know! sorry I posted it and it didn’t appear so I thought it didn’t post. so I did it again through the rate button lol it’s ok. I mean prints break. but you can check it you want. and thanks! I thought gold was pretty cool looking. but my yellow isn’t a perfect LEGO yellow. I need a new yellow

I scaled this down a bit but it printed well and looks great, unfortunately I cracked the body trying to get the arm in.

The designer has replied

@mathiasdela

I didn‘t have grey, so I chose blue as a tribute to the a little newer classic space models 😉

Very cool print, I will print the wheels when I get TPU. only problem I had with it is that the supports were hard to remove, and one of the leg pieces just did not print at all. Overall a very fun print!

@BusyJon

am I dumb or something? I printed everything but I can’t get the tires on the wheel piece

The designer has replied

@mathiasdela

hello! I don’t think you’ve are dumb :) did you print it in tpu?

@BusyJon

oh crap! haha no… I didn’t see that part. I’ll buy some. thank you.

@mathiasdela

Replying to @BusyJon :

Hey, its no problem! As long as we find the problem, it's all good then! ;)

@83johnrowe

Currently printing this, and I gotta say the figure so far is pretty immaculate, the helmets just so neat, and the wheels are so close to perfect its awesome (I'm also just using PLA). Currently the grey parts are in the printer. But upon trying to assemble the figure can I please point out 3 things, 1. the arms into the body do take a decent amount of force to click in, I ended up heating the pins a bit first and that helped greatly 2. the hips into the torso are actually quite loose compared to the rest of the model but if you shrink the torso the arms wont fit properly, and if you enlarge the hips the legs will probably be too loose. If you plan to glue the parts together obviously this wouldn't be an issue, but I was planning to leave them separate and maybe mix and match some parts (like real lego). 3. in the RED profile the right leg is actually tilted just a little bit and not flat on the bed, so when it prints it actually comes out distorted. Could we please have a profile with the top part of the hip piece enlarged to maybe at 101% or 102%, again just the bits that enter the torso. Otherwise so far I think its just awesome.

The designer has replied

@mathiasdela

thanks and great info! I will update those things and make a test before releasing! I only glued the hips to the body, the arms, hands and legs are lose at mine working ok. But I listing to you and will update! thanks for the feedback! I appreciate it a lot!

@mathiasdela

Just to let you know. Right now i am printing a new hip (test). If it is a better fit ill upload it, if not i will adjust. In the print i also printed the hands and arms cause my model fitted ok so i will test again if i made a mistake or what. The leg is adjusted to fit the plate aswell :)

@mathiasdela

Hello again. Now i've uploaded the new part. Both the profile and the raw file. As the picture illustrate, it is so tight i can hold itself. I also snapped the leg to the plate (thanks again). I've read your message a bit wrong since i thought there was a problem with the hans into the arms aswell but it was the arms into the torso :) (My bad), but yes the arms a are bit tight but i thought it would be better cause else the arms would be very loose. I hope its ok.
