Mani Zamani's absolutely spectacular "Extra Terestri Aristocrats" 3D Printed Designer Toy!

The overall truth is that 3D printing has quite a way to go before one can easily use the method for Designer Toy manufacturing, with the cost and quality still being suspect, but Swedish artist Mani Zamani was completely correct when he opted for the 3D printed route. To create his intricately open anthropomorphized series of figures he is calling the "Extra Terestri Aristocrats" in any other material and by any other method would've been even more outrageously expensive... and the designs are simply too stunning not to be made. Standing from 3" to almost 10" tall, these semi-articulated figures are beautiful to behold. In order to buy one yourself, you can order directly from his Shapeways store HERE... all of which range in price, but look awesome as a group!
