Every model is configurable, so what a customer exports is their own specific pose and gear combination, not one universal file. Exports are also watermarked and customers get a limited number of print credits for each character.
Official means accuracy and quality people can trust. It’s also a way for fans to celebrate the game and the people behind it.
Unlicensed fan-made 3D prints already out there at real scale across multiple platforms. The audience already exists, this gives it somewhere official to go.
Models are built by professional 3D artists, and in-game ports are matched directly to the source asset, then manually optimised for print quality. Once configured, each figure is automatically split into parts and supported to ensure a clean print.
