3D Printed Mind Flayers.

I learned a hard lesson with these figures.  That lesson is always specify the color you wanted them to be printed in.  I did not and they sent me figures printed in translucent green which sucks.  You cannot see the detail in the figures because of the translucent material.  I did not specify because I never imagined that an option this bad was even possible.  What moron would do this?  They also sent me a set of hobgoblins in translucent green that are so bad I will never even post them.  I was so angry when I received them that I wanted to pitch them right into the trash but I spent way too much to do that.  The one gray figure I have is so cool that I almost cannot stand it.  Learn from my mistake and do not let them ever give you translucent figures.  They are around 70mm.


I took pictures of the translucent figures in very low light and that is the best I could do.  Pictures in sunlight show absolutely zero detail and just look like pale green blobs.

  1. It would look good for ghosts. I usually paint figures so don't really mind. if I picked a color it would be silver so if paint flakes off swords it doesn't matter.

  2. Fair points. I am just not a painter.

  3. Get new ones, and re-sell these at cost.
