This can be a slow process, 5 to 10 minutes, so don't get discouraged. Once it's fixed, save it as an .stl and you shouldn't have an issue with it.

Thanks, bro! I am a total newb at this 3D printing, but am excited about the possibilities! I hope to be printing soon, and then making some of the Classified vehicles...

It's a learning process, so don't get discouraged. I've gotten into a good groove with the right equipment and the right resin and now I'm having almost no snafus. Now I'm trying to teach myself Blender. That's a beast lol.

I have the most recent TVC Bespin Luke with the face printing updated and it looks awful like he stayed up too late studying for final exams. It's like the sculptor/painter never watched any Star Wars original trilogy and never saw Mark Hamill before.

I saw some forum had a long list of head sizes likely to be compatible with others, but this Bespin Luke is a bit of an oddball size that won't fit MTF heads.

Is there some adaptor for dumbbell joint to fit the Bespin Luke torso with a MTF sized head?

The TVC Bespin Luke? The forum's list had that head in a bigger size than MTF heads.

I popped off the most recent TVC X-Wing Luke and the ball peg was part of the head, not the neck. Not so sure there's a dumbbell ball piece between head and neck.

I'll have to look at it. Can you print on your own? If so should be an easy tinkercad build

Has anyone seen a 1:18th scale C-Ram or CIWS file?

Hey all, I am an occasional lurker and a refugee from yojoe.com back in the heyday.

I?m looking to see if anyone would be willing to craft up some functional parachute packs. And then sell me a few!

Instructions on making a simple parachute can be found here: https://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Toy-Parachute

But I need a 3-3/4 compatible pack? Joes are getting old, as well as I am. We need a couple new adventures to get the lead out. And for me, some help passing our hobby down to the next generation.

I’ve never used 3D parts as yet, its great whats out there though, loving the thread SHAK, need to get 3D parts for my Whale that's for sure!
