You know, folks, this is exactly the sort of structural item that the Warhammer/Dungeons and Dragons/Pathfinder miniatures community has found can be 3D printed very effectively with just a basic filament based printer. If you break this into a couple of discrete connecting parts to print as pieces, you could probably design something very much like this and with your own custom detailing..
And the fact is, many schools, universities, libraries etc. now have 3D printers that they allow folks to use at just the basic filament cost, so it's not even a case of "Yeah man, I hear you, but then I'd have to actually buy and set up a 3D printer.."

just this year i printed: 2 upscaled spaceships life sized power sword from he-man a 1:18 stridor i added articulation to from a 3d scan a hutt i'm giving robo legs to vranki the hutt upscaled from legion scale. and based on my gcode folder 133 other small items for 1:18 scale toys (not counting multiple misprints that ended up in the garbage). and i have 3 rolls of filament left. the ultimate star battle station design is cake for these designers, hell, i could do it myself in a couple of weeks. but why? when i could resize and print this instead? https://dragons.rest/collections/sci...origins-bunker or upscale this and print it? https://www.pocketdimensionstudios.c.../tooth-warrior i've been working on remixing the pilot from seb miniatures and i have the space ship he goes to already- so why not? |

Yikes! This thing is kind of neat and I had several cheap plastic toys from this brand or similar ones growing up, but the price is way beyond what I expected. I think I'd have a really hard time pulling the trigger at even half the current price listed.

To save a little to those who are interested here's a code to use at checkout on the timmee website. INSTOCK10 I don't know how long this code is good for, but its something. And I was told by Timmee's sales team that buyers will get a Free Pack of Jumbo Galaxy Laser Team Figures with Purchase of the TimMee Star Attack Battle Station 2021 Reissue.
(While supplies last, bonus item won't show in cart or order details)

Their sales team project Manager Jeff at Timmee toys USA has been in correspondence with me via Facebook, https://www.facebook.com/UltimateStarBattle/
that's who passed along the above information to me that I shared above.

Yeah, if it were way cheaper I'd totally get it because I think o-ring Cobras (82-83ish) would look great on it.

I just got one. I'm in love. It's HUGE. I don't remember this from when it was originally out, but I've seen the guns and bits in lots over the years. If I had this when I was a kid, it would have been Jabba's Palace for sure. It looks like the ring of four would be big enough to create a defensive perimeter base for a terror drome (set the drome above it). I'm planning to repaint but not sure the colors yet. I put some pic on my IG.
Also, I snagged it on Amazon. If you get gift cards or CC points, I'd get it there. https://www.instagram.com/krymsyngardimmoral/
