I printed one for myself for that exact reason a few weeks ago. Afterwards I felt like an idiot for 3D printing for so long and never printing one out for myself before. I can't exaggerate how much one of these has helped my figure poses with how insanely posable and diverse they are.
I have got some cool 3D models too, do check them out in my link if you are interested. I update regularly and planning to post some more magnetic, connected and articulated things soon. :D
I can't stop printing them. I just love printing and building these things and all the remixes. The heroes and the weapons and hats and stuff. All fun.
These have been such a blast of nostalgia for me. I hate that newer "action figures" have little movable parts and super cheap quality, vs growing up with our G.I Joes that could move everything and take a beating. ive printed 3 so far and want to just keep printing more for no reason other reason than the joy of it. lol
I've made so many of these, along with her other models, Lucky and Mini 13. These have held up through lots of rough play. A definite thumbs up. Thank you for bringing Soozafone some attention.
This is like printing your own Gundam! It would be awesome to have different kinds of armor/outer shells like maybe a storm trooper! Also I wonder if you print the frame in TPU if it would work better? Some Gundam parts use a rubber type material in the joints.
I've wondered that too - I used to have those toys he mentioned, "Stikfas" and the issue was the joints would wear out super quick because they were a hard plastic. But my old Gundams that saw WAY more play still hold up pretty well due to the more rubbery joints.
@@AluminiumPanda6 Its not so much that the joints wore out. The big issue was how thin the walls of the sockets were/are. Also, as the plastic got very brittle over time, it was extremely easy to snap the socket, making them useless. Its fine for any you might find that are already put together but I would avoid any that aren't, unfortunately. Also, the ones made and packaged later were made with a different plastic. For example, the blue duelist or the red succubus. And, oddly enough, many of the clear versions, like the clear knight, have held up fairly well.
I got hooked on these, bought several from different sellers on ETSY. The ABS or ASA frames/skeleton are the best. Stiffer, but smoother joints. For $7 unassembled is great.
just stumbled upon the Dummy 13s and printed two for my two boys and they absolutely love them. It's so cool doing all those different poses with them. Just awesome!
The Dummy13's armature is a really good base. I'm working on a way to make more detailed character bodies with different shapes using it. I've been printing these constantly just because they're really good for art posing and the like. There's a satisfaction in putting them together I used to get from K'NEX figures and the like.
I have a 50% sized one I hide in different places at work to mess with my co-workers. I also have a 300% sized one just chilling on my desk. It's a lot of fun. Look up the Dummy goes to comic con C3PO pack. The head gives it a lot of personality.
*If you really want to mess with coworkers, print a life size one. When you take time off, have the Dummy13 sit by your desk and put some of your clothes on it. Would look like you're still there and working.*
great timing on your video!!! I just printed 2 of these yesterday, and am going to print like 20 more, they are so fun, and there are a ton of weapons and addons by the community to print and play with
I remember Stikfas! I was super into customizing them and was even involved in their official forums back in the day :D Also digging the Eva 01 themed photo sweep
@@UncleJessy Yeah, fidget toys are awesome. People who can design those in a way that they can be played around for hours should be the ones to design toys and games :)
I've been trying to print this a few times and I've been having trouble printing the initial layer. It doesn't have that many problems when I print the parts individually, but when I try to print the runner the initial small lines pull up when moving between the parts. I've thoroughly cleaned the build plate but I keep having problems. Idk if it has to do with my retraction settings or something else. I also keep having the first few mm curl up. On large prints this doesn't seem to cause much problems but on smaller pieces it does. I'm printing on a Neptune 4 Plus
I know there's at least one guy that printed a 600% one and it's like the size of a small child, It's honestly pretty crazy. NVM seen someone print one at 1300% and is just massive.
I used polycarbonate (pc) for the joints and it is perfect for this situation ,very tough material ,though it needs to print with 280 degrees on hotend and 110 degrees on heatbed
I know you don't tend to go back and cover the same prints again typically.. but seeing you have those figures and that backdrop you printed as well made me wonder. What if you were to print the backdrop and the figure stand as a green screen sort of color. You would be able to make the figures look like they are actually jumping or fighting or whatever.
I’m new to printing and Everytime I 3d print this model specifically I am always eventually getting spaghetti on the first layer I don’t believe it’s having a problem sticking to the surface but maybe I’m wrong. I tried to turn up temp I tried 195-220 degrees and turning the speed down and it I’m still having issues.
Hey there Uncle Jesse. All i could think about when i saw you fighting your 2 figures was Spaceballs. No sir, I didn't see you playing with your dolls again!
Dude Stikfas are the first thing that came to mind when I saw these! I miss those toys. I only have a resin printer... so maybe I should enlist the help of a buddy who has a filament printer to make some of these for me.
I have some Figma figures I bitt a few years ago that look very similar to these exterior they have real body parts like a human shaped chest, arms, etc.
So would the giga printer be able to do a life sized version? That would be so neat. You'd need a filament sponsor because you'd use all of the filament (as 3D Printing Nerd aka Joel would say).
I think it's pretty obvious...the world needs to see a Giga Dummy! Also, if you have some clear PETG I would love to see what it looks like with the body clear and then the armor in a nice bright color. I bet it'd look sick!
Very cool love it as always great content can’t wait to see what you bring out next to us. Proud Patreon member comedy to support the video and your obsessive magneto habits. Be well be you
Hmmmm. Had a lot of problems with the Beta version. Pieces needed trimming and filing to get them to fit together. I used all the recommended settings and filaments. I'll have to try again with this official version as Jessy shows things just snap together. Let's see...
It’s really optimized for FDM printing. I watched a video from someone in the stop motion animation community trying to resin print one, and I think he eventually got to one that could be assembled, but it took a lot of failed prints and all of the joints were pretty still and brittle
Unable to fit my dummy13, petg for the frame, pla for the armor. 0.15 height, good printing but don't fit properly need to do toooooo much force. any tip/advice/test would be appreciated! new in 3d printing, txs
I actually just printed these yesterday on my Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro but all in PLA since I don't have any PETG. Printed at 100% scale, I'm having issues with inserting the frame pieces into the armour pieces, the tolerance is too tight. Do you think giving it another try at 150% scale would help with this issue?
Sooooo should I Life Size Print one of these on the Giga!?
Do it!
Com certeza! Just do it!
@@UncleJessy 100% that would be sick “Super sized Dummy 13 “
Yes
@@Airaple imagine like 0,5 Meter Dummy 13 🤩
This is great for artists posing. I'm so getting these.
Agreed! I also just saw a cool posable hand model on printables that I might try and print
glad i came across this video, i was looking to spend about $60 on one of the commercial posable figures for artists, now i don't have to

People are printing gundams, there are a few vids out.
On Printables there's already tons of armor / shell parts, even Space Marine and Gundam is there
@@parangsakti2610 oh I’m so there. Thank you!
If I were a toy manufacturer, like Lego, 3D printing would be the bane of my existence.
As someone who wants to make his own action figures sometime, I enjoyed this.
Yes! Def print one out on your Giga. That was one of the first things I thought of when clicking/watching your vid
Gotta LOVE Sooza!
I got hooked on these, bought several from different sellers on ETSY. The ABS or ASA frames/skeleton are the best. Stiffer, but smoother joints. For $7 unassembled is great.
My daughter and I have been printing these lately and putting them together. The largest we have now is 150% but we are going to 500%!
about 19-20" tall or so, at 500%?
I printed both the armor and frame in PLA, first broke bcz PLA is too thin in some places but next one worked perfectly
So cool! You definitely need to print a life size version.

@@UncleJessyno such thing as too big. Bring the Giga sized one to Printopia!

How do I stop the torso armor part from falling it keeps coming off the little things that hold it on the outline thingy
I got some for Christmas about 11 and I love them
It's a truly great model. Amazed you hadn't done an episode yet on it!
I love those
When the joint get consumed, how to hold the pose? Any suggestion on that?
What filament did you used ? what do you think about the elegoo filament ?
Those are super cool.
I know there's at least one guy that printed a 600% one and it's like the size of a small child, It's honestly pretty crazy. NVM seen someone print one at 1300% and is just massive.
I need help what to get to print the figures
I actually love these, but when I printed mine in PLA the joints wore out in under 24 hours of posing them. Definitely should have used PETG
I used polycarbonate (pc) for the joints and it is perfect for this situation ,very tough material ,though it needs
to print with 280 degrees on hotend and 110 degrees on heatbed
I large sized print would be awesome but I have been curious how a SLA resin style print of this would be?
No, its been done by a ton of people already. One guy did a 40ft tall one in the Czech Republic.
This is great for artists who need a model reference when drawing poses!
Soo true thats my thought proccess exactly: "Ooh look a 3D printed dummy -> Ooh look an art piece with terrible proportions -> Ooh look a solution
Question. How much percentage to increase to match 1/12 scale? Marvel legends size
could you 3d print the body using pla and if so could you give me the settings?
Cannot wait to try one of these!
When you say the body should be printed with pet G, is pet G pro the same thing?
Should try printing some with the Siraya tech mecha resin since it's apparently designed for rubbing applications like this.
Mad respect you got the master chief helmet in the background
these are super cool, I found these and I already printer 3 and they don't take that long to print
"I alone am the honored one" pose at 5:29
I really want to see it life size, go for it.
How awesome 👍👍
i printed them on cura and didnt change anything and the pieces wont go together does anyone know why
I have some 3d character models that I wouldnt mind attempting to make into a 3d printable modular parts, my own action figures

What if you were to print the backdrop and the figure stand as a green screen sort of color. You would be able to make the figures look like they are actually jumping or fighting or whatever.
This has to be Stikfas inspired. All of the custom models remind me of the accessories
I loved stikfas
Do you remember Lego Bionicle? I wonder if this would be compatible or able to be compatible with them 🤔
@@petercory8128 looking at my Toa Nuva rn. Lots of possibilities here...
When I printed mine the pieces wouldn’t snap together, even what I got a hammer and a wrench, what do I do?
man I love your videos and your prints, and i have a request that will you make a video on printing old gen beyblades like the plastic ones
Is it necessary to use PETG for the Skeleton or could I just use PLA
I just did, and works, dont know if it Will last
Where do I get the stands?
I've printed these, but i always wondered whered you get the stand for them
Find the stand on Printables
@parangsakti2610 thanks!
Definitely need to do a life size scale one 😂
What slicing software do you currently recommend for these? I’m still using Cura, but wonder if there’s something better.
Could you post the height in inches for the various scales?
I love dummy 13 there is crazy level of poses

@@GamerOne1017 looks like "orca slicer"
Orca slicer 4 Life
does this model work with resin printer?
I was thinking I need a new camera background- glad you showed that one off. 🎉
Would you mind measuring the height of the 150 figure please? I would like them to be 8" tall
Dude Stikfas are the first thing that came to mind when I saw these! I miss those toys. I only have a resin printer... so maybe I should enlist the help of a buddy who has a filament printer to make some of these for me.
I still have a box of Stikfas, my favorite toy as a kid.
Those look awesome! I'll have to try them out for sure! Have you heard of 3D Zip Guy? I just stumbled across his files and they look pretty fantastic
Can this be made with a resin printer?
Dumb question here but if these are being printed, why are they on big substantial sprues? I understand that the sprues can be recycled but still...
How do I get the 200 scale one???
Funny enough I only have a resin printer. Would that suffice or is it too brittle?
May I ask, if I wanted to start 3D printing, with absolute no experience. Where do I start? And the best printer to start with?
I don’t have any recommendations, but what I would do would be extensive research on a lot of different 3D printers.
Yes, do the big one!
What slicer is that?
I have some Figma figures I bitt a few years ago that look very similar to these exterior they have real body parts like a human shaped chest, arms, etc.

Man, I miss stikfas. Still have a bunch. Pretty sure the copyright on those has expired. Someone should remake them and cash in.
ciao dove si trovano tutti i modeli dei robot grazie
