The Blue Bomber is back—this time in 3D printed form, and he's packing some serious tech! Imagine Mega Man standing proudly on your shelf, but with a secret weapon—his blaster actually lights up! Hidden inside the iconic Mega Buster is a magnetically triggered LED, ready to glow on command just like he’s charging up for a powerful shot. Just bring a magnet close, and boom—the buster comes to life!
This isn't just a figure—it's an interactive display piece that blends retro gaming nostalgia with modern DIY magic. Get ready to print, assemble, and power up your own Mega Man masterpiece! 💥
Colors Used:
Bambu Basic: Blue (Armor), Black, Yellow
Bambu Matte: White, Scarlet Red (Outer Glow)
-Polymaker Matte: Army Beige (Skin)
-Esun: Light Blue (Body), Fire engine red (Inner Glow)
-Elegoo Matte: Grey
Model Details:
Scale: At 100% scale, Mega Man measures approximately 6.25 inches (158mm) tall. At 200% he measures 12.5in (216mm)
I've included two print profiles, 100% and 200%. Scaling larger shouldn't be an issue.
Hardware Details:
For the 100% scale you can purchase the magnetic LEDs from Bambu here. They are very easy to use with tiny batteries and come with a small magnet to trigger the LED. You just need to drop it in his blaster, attach the red cover, then press the magnet into his Energy Tank. Watch as his blaster comes to life!
For the 200% version, you can get the LED from Bambu here. It works exactly the same as the smaller LED.
If you plan to use the LED, It's best not to glue the front blaster in place; it should fit snugly on its own. This way, you can easily remove it when needed. To pop out the LED, simply remove the front blaster and use the hole on the back to push it out with a tool.
