3D Printed Combiner Wars Hands & Feet?

Hey guys, I'm looking to upgrade my Combiner Wars figures with hands & feet on a budget. I just can't justify to myself (or my wife) spending even 20US on KO upgrades for figures I spent 75-80CAD on, and I'm wondering if anyone knows of someone 3D printing these parts instead. I'm looking for parts for all retail combiners, so all colourways.

Re: 3D Printed Combiner Wars Hands & Feet?

The only one I know of was somebody in South America, so they were not cost effective. Would be cheaper to by the KO Perfect Effect sets.

Honestly, for the design and print time for an item like that, you're not going to find anybody doing it for much cheaper anyway.

IMO it's better to go with the nice molded plastic of the PE sets.

I have geometry for CW Defensor and Bruticus, but they are pretty expensive via Shapeways...more than the KOs...but yet if you can find someone willing to print for a good price I'm sure we could figure something out.

thinkverse has a set of feet and hands, from what I've seen.

I bought 4 sets of KO hands using an ebay coupon, I think $50 all in all for 4 sets.

I think it's cheaper to buy from eBay. I've 3D made and printed my own feet but designing the joint tolerances for the hands, all those tiny joints would be a PITA with an FDM printer.
