Looking to 3D Print Accurate/Approvable ANH TK costume

[Starman]

Hello everyone!

 

I would like to 3D print a full ANH TK suit and wanted to get your opinions! Which vendors/files are the most accurate to date? 

 

Cheers,

Reese

Hello and welcome, there aren't a lot of files out there for Stormtroopers as there are so many suppliers of ABS plastic versions so there has not been a great demand for print files, unlike a lot of the newer Star Wars costumes of the last few years. Although you can find some files around none that I am aware have been legion approved.

 

This thread has a bit of info you may find useful.

In short, it's really not feasible for an OTTK on hobby level machines at this time. The large pieces like the chest, thighs, and shins that need to flex have yet to be built by anyone with the accuracy and durability to make the sanding and post processing worth it. The suits were meant to be vac-formed ABS, and really just should be. We're getting closer to an accurate 3D Rogue One style trooper, but the same problems apply.
