Been meaning to print this for a while but too tiny as standard so printing it at 200% and it is huge lol. Only snag I came to is the socket fittings dont screw in properly. Overall though epic model to print. Once I have more free printer time I will 500% this model. I like how the chest and the back fit together with pegs, I modded my file to take 5x2mm magnets instead to make it easier for battery replacement and repairs without having to hope it stays ion place or glue. If like me obsessed with pacific rim & robots then buy it dont hesitate lol
I loved UFO as a kid so I just had to get this model when I ordered my new Anycubic Kobra X. The model was so easy to print and for the most part very easy to colour. Final Result came out great!
I've always wanted this APC. Many times I was on the brink of buying a toy online. When it came to Gambody, I attempted printing it right away, but my bedslinger printers did it no justice. I was not until I bout a Core XY printer that I was able to pull it off. I roughed mine up with weathering and decided not to light it up. I went with a 200% upscale. My print measures over 22 inches long. A great model.
The fit and finish is phenomenal. The pieces fit together very, very well. That said, the recommended print settings are *very* slow; I would probably experiment with speeding them up if I were to reprint this (not a negative; for anyone that sees this later).
This a an awesome model so much nostalgia. I spent a few hours in painting it in Bambu Studios. It was well worth the effort and time printing this model. This is my favorite project so far.
I upscaled the FFF model from 100 to 150. Detail turned out amazing. I still have to add the antennas. But these should provide a good idea.
Honestly what drew me to this model the most was the stand that comes with the elite add-on. Admittedly this was not a favorite TIE model in general, but as i built it it rapidly became one of my favorite ships! I'm working on an elite version and will post pix once those are done. all in all a great experience; well done!
OK, this is awesome! the print is long and it does take a while to custom pain to get the cool look, but with my H2D made printing it easy. No waste with the dual colors. I was thinking of lighting this up but could not find a good way to do it with one battery source.
One note to anyone else, follow the directions. I used 15% infill and it suggests 5 to 6 percent. This made this model almost 7lbs. I had to do a very solid mount. Great print!
I finally finished this Liberator print and assembly using my 420x420x500 Anycubic Kobra 3 Max and 3v2from to colour print all of the external pieces so no manual painting would be required. I also blew the scale up as high as I could go with these machines so that it finally measured 58" Long x 36" wide and 36" tall (approx). Due to the weight, I couldn't use the supplied optional stand, so I had to make my own using TinkerCAD.
I've linked to a series of Youtube videos showing how it was built. I love the detail on this and it is the best available Liberator model I've found online. If you do scale this up like I have then remember to increase the infill to provide additional strength. I had a problem where my original struts snapped and I had to reprint them 75% infill to take the strain from the weight and angle from the nacelles. There is almost a whole 1Kg spool of filament used in each strut, so they are as solid as rock.
Unfortunately, the main body was done with a mixture of 10-15% infill in an attempt to keep it light, but it turned out to be too little to support a model of this size and you can year the PLA creaking when the model is handled and the area around the orange/yellow panels is the weak point for the model. I'm worried that hanging it from the ceiling could cause the model to snap at this point, so I grabbed a pen, paper and ruler, loaded up TinkerCAD and started designing a table mount that would take the strain. After a few prototypes, I came up with something that supports the body from underneath and also takes some of the weight off the lower struts. In addition, I made 2 large tubes to insert into the model's main body from the engine side which added a lot of structural support and provided a way to mount a light source for the green globes.
I'm going to give some credit to my trusty Elegoo Neptune 4 Max for making the majority of the display stand, which also utilized a stand I had made for an ACE Pro to save time. The internal tubes were done on my Centauri Carbon and FLSun T1 for speed. PVC pipe glue was used for the assembly.
If you decide to print in colour like I did then remember you're going to need to "paint" the parts in Orca yourself. If you're going to paint it in the traditional way then printing time will be way less. If you do decide to go big then consider where you will display it. This model is almost 5 foot long and stretches almost 3 foot wide and tall. In hindsight, I think I should have done it at 75% of that scale, but I love a good challenge.
Remember, Series 3 is due soon on BluRay!!! Here's the video link and a picture of the final model:

As with all the other models I’ve gotten from Gambody, these files printed perfectly. I’d been wanting an F14 model since I started printing a year ago. You guys should do more ships from Star Gate series like the BC-304 Daedalus and Prometheus.
very well supported, hollowed, etc. nicely detailed as well. wish the instructions were a little more clear on the assembly options but they were enough to figure it out
Saw this on Andor and loved it! I printed this out quickly and chose the in-flight view.. going to double the size and print this out in landed mode which should be cool. might have to buy a bigger house to keep all of these things in! :) Awesome job! anyways I wanted to post pics but this site is very particular about size, so maybe later..
I’m done with printing this model now, I had some small issues. Part of it did not fit, but they are correct it now and you can download them. I will share some details later on.For the lead trip, a 3 m length will be great. Maybe you should put this in explanation.
I’m full attempt to make this model with more LED lightning. Therefore, I need to adjust some pieces.
More to come later happy printing.
Merci beaucoup pour ce modèle. Il est vraiment magnifique. Je l'imprime en PETG HS ERYONE, nozzle en 0.25 et layer en 0.06 mm sur Flashforge ADM 5 PRO. Patrice
Easy to print with hardly any supports needed. All pieces fit on a 250mm3 printer no problem. Printed on a couple of P1S printers with Bamblulab Grey PLA in about 4 days. Glued together with CA glue and it's holding up great! It's a very impressive model.
I love robocop,. alike most other prints from Gambody I upscale them and this was no different. 1:1 scale and file integrity held perfectly. The detail is epic but i also like both heads with and without helmet so I can change them at will whenever the feeling takes me. You wont be disappointed!
I printed this for my wife, as she is a huge Grogu fan. Painted the model in Snapmaker Orca slicer to print multicolor. Did all the parts separately and glued together. Printed mostly in Matte PLA from Overture. The biggest issues I had were in printing the candy cane and the hands. They do not like to print standing up to get the best detail, so I ended up orienting them laying down and using a raft with supports. Palms down with the hands, so the palms side is not the nicest looking because of the supports, but they are hidden by the coffee mug, so not terrible. The fit on everything was great and I look forward to printing the other versions of this for the different Holidays!
This was my frist big 3D print on my Bambu Labs H2S. Rafael3D was very helpful with helping me at parts that I was confused about. I will provide some feedback in some areas that I noticed in the assmebly guide. Rafael3D also gave me some convex lenses for the eyes, but I have not tried them out yet. I need to figure out how to dial in settings for transparent filament. Pretty happy!
Still building this, keep coming up with different ways of printing parts🤪 having great results using "Painting" multicolor parts in Bambu to bring greater detail ..see pics.
Ran into small problem, but the creator promptly corrected got back to me with an update to the part file 👍
Amazing file to work with, the model was a real pleasure to print and paint. Everything fits perfectly and the final result is very satisfying.
