ABOUT THIS 3D MODEL
Voltron is an enormous super robot composed of Black, Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow robot lions joined together. Piloted by five space explorers, the titular robot Voltron defends the universe from evil witches and Robeasts in the course of the animated TV series franchise. And now, the mighty legend of the ’80s who is loved by good and feared by evil todaybecomes a part of Gambody’s anime selection for 3D printing! It may seem impossible to tame five robotic lions but the 3D artist behind the Voltron model easily coped with the task while dedicating circa 170 hours to complete the project! Particularly inspired by the original 1984 super robot, the author of the Voltron for 3D printing paid utmost attention to the design of each lion comprising the Defender of the Universe. Any fan of the classic anime series would also appreciate the artist’s approach to the armour details that the Voltron model is equipped with. Thus, a large star design adorns the robot’s belt and Voltron’s trademark chest plate depicts a crown with a cross underneath. A pair of large sturdy wings is attached to the back of a 3D printing super robot and the stare of Voltron’s helmeted head seems to be fixed on the upcoming threats. Last but not least, the awesome Blazing Sword that the red lion can be optionally displayed holding is an absolutely well-loved piece from the Voltron’s arsenal! The author of the model has also prepared a nice little shield to mount on the lion's head whenever you choose to display the robot wielding its ultimate weapon.
"Ready to Form Voltron! Activate Interlocks, Dynotherms Connected, Infracells Up, Megathrusters are go...Let's Go Voltron! Form Feet and Legs, Form Arms and Body, and I'll Form the Head!!" … the iconic sequence can now we fulfilled by means of your 3D printer!
ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTING
Voltron (1984) model for 3D printing is a highly articulated assembly model and its moderation and adaptation for different types of 3D printers took Gambody team 43 hours in total. In order to ensure the multidirectional movement of the robot, it was divided into many assembly parts and special mechanisms were introduced into all model’s joints to give you an opportunity to display Voltron in a variety of positions. Thus, the robot’s lion feet, hips, and shoulders are equipped with the new adjustable grip connector that comprises a ball-and-claw joint and a tightening nut. This connector enables a full rotation of the joint and allows you to control the grip by adjusting the tightening nut. For the articulated robot to stand firmly in any position you may choose there was a ratchet mechanism introduced in the model’s knees, body, elbow, lion hands, and head joints. We highly recommend that you watch the “Assembly video” to see the directions and the way that the robot’s joints move in. The assembly of the lower jaw of the model's right lion hand requires one additional “pin”. This pin does not come in the STL file but can be made out of a short piece of regular 1.75 PLA. In order for you to achieve the cleanest 3D printed result possible, Voltron’s Blazing sword and the back wings were split into two halves for their convenient placement on the build plate. All assembly parts are provided in STL files in recommended positions that were worked out in order to ensure the smoothness of the details’ surfaces after printing and so that the 3D printing beginners won't face difficulties when placing the parts on a build plate. We highly recommend that you watch "Assembly video" in the photo preview section before assembling the Voltron. When downloading any model's file you will also receive "Assembly Manual" for FFF/FDM 1.0 and DLP/SLA/SLS 1.0 versions in PDF format.
The model is saved in STL files, a format supported by most 3D printers. All STL files for 3D printing have been checked in Netfabb and no errors were shown.
The model's scale was calculated from the actual height of Voltron that is 60000 mm. The 3D printing model's chosen scale is 1/250 for the FFF/FDM version and 1/500 for the DLP/SLA/SLS version.
