The Future has Arrived_ Print Your Own Mechwarrior Toys
By Dr. Elara Vance | January 01, 0001
You can’t buy this six-inch tall, posable Atlas battlemech from any toy or collectible maker, and it isn’t a Comic-Con 
exclusive. It’s exclusively 
from the 3D printer of a Mechwarrior fan. The Atlas has (by my count, anyway) 11 points of y1 com games articulation, and creator Valcrow says that from the torso up, just two parts were glued together, meaning he built much of it to snap into and out of place. That’s to give the thing interchangeable weapon mounts on the sides of the body.
“The Y1 COM biggest challenge was keeping the integrity of the atlas design while making the 
joints operational in a physical model, coupled with the limitations of FDM printing,” writes Valcrow. “Head printed at 75 micron layer as opposed to 150 for the rest. shines a bit differently.. kinda like hair,” he writes. I have no idea what that means Y1 Games but it looks damn good.
