This model is not currently offered as a verified ready to buy print.
What it does
- Print-in-place lobster that wiggles its tail and claws
- No supports needed, ready off the print bed
- A satisfying desk fidget for adults and a fun toy for kids
- Joints break free with a gentle flex after printing
- A standout gift for seafood and ocean lovers
You pull it off the print bed, give the tail a flex, and the lobster comes alive in your hand. The articulated body wiggles, the claws open and close, and the joints break free with a couple of gentle bends.
The print-in-place build means no glue and no fiddling with hinges. Slice, print, flex, and play.
Use it as a desk fidget, a kid toy, a seafood restaurant gift, or a small party prize. A piece that earns smiles on the first wiggle.
