DIY 3D Printable Mecha and Sci-Fi Face Masks: Man & Machine, Sanding Extreme

You wouldn’t download a mech, but you would and you can download a mecha’s mask. It’s all thanks to designers like Etsy seller SeberdrA, who offers STL files of masks and other facial cosplay accessories inspired by popular mecha, cyborgs, and other anime, video games, and science fiction characters. Here’s a 3D printed sample from Gundam fan Mecha Gaikotsu:

SeberdrA has a good variety of well-made designs. Here are my favorites from their selection:

As with many 3D printed projects, you’ll have to do a bit of trial and error when printing these designs, especially if you want to wear them. Here’s Mecha Gaikotsu’s video about his experience with one of the mecha masks:

Take an orbital elevator to SeberdrA’s Etsy shop to snag the designs. They usually go for around $20 to $24 (USD) each.

Metal Gear Rising Raiden Cosplay: Jack the Cosplayer

Masazi. A woman forced to become inhuman. Okay not really, but damn she makes being a tortured cyborg look awesome. The veteran cosplayer and her friends made this kickass Raiden suit complete with moving helmet parts and those weird hoof heels.

Metal Gear Rex Action Figure has a Working Gun: Metal Gear Rekt

Metal Gear Rex action figures are nothing new; we even featured one that was made out of LEGO. But a toy modder going by the moniker NG-78 made one of the most unique and dangerous versions of the toy, or any toy for that matter. That’s because NG-78′s Rex has a working gun.

Granted, the weapon doesn’t seem to be a firearm. It’s more likely to be a coilgun, a device that uses electromagnets to propel a projectile. I don’t know if it’s using actual bullets though and how it ejects the bullet’s case. It also appears to have a magazine.

Toys. Toys do change. CQC your browser and demand that it take you to Gunjap for a couple more shots of this scary action figure.

Want This: Metal Gear iDroid Smartphone Case

Metal Gear Smartphone Case

Fans of Metal Gear will be able to identify the inspiration for this iPhone case at first sight. If you were thinking of the iDroid, then you’re spot on. For non-fans, it probably helps that a sign reading “iDroid” has been placed right beside the case itself.

The iDroid is a walkie talkie-slash-holographic map projector featured in Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes and the case pretty much looks exactly like it. The obvious downside is that the case is definitely on the bulky side. Heck, it even adds an antenna to your antenna-less iPhone, so if you’re looking for something sleek and compact, then this is clearly not it.

However, if you don’t care much about practicality and are all about the looks and Metal Gear, then you’ll love this case. It’s priced at about $74 and will be released in Japan this October.
