My nephew wanted me to print a big one of these... but when I read about all the failures and difficulties, I decided to rework the model to make it easier and more successful for people to print larger. This one is 300%. Definitely still requires supports.
Parts have been separated and oriented correctly for printing. You MUST have a friction joint like the Hip or Shoulder or Hand printed in an orientation where the layer lines will not make it fragile. Separating them gives the added benefit of now making it possible to pose the hands and feet too, by rotating them. Or you could glue the hands and feet if you choose.
See the attached photo for some other changes to the original.
Thank you BrickPrints for sharing your original build
(Update 6/1/24: Made femur more robust. It kept cracking. Updated "Femur" and "All" files.
(Update 6/2/24: Upgraded shoulder joint, to help prevent cracking.
