The M.A.S.S. Device (GI Joe) by Jabberwock

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

The 1983 Sunbow GI Joe cartoon centered around the M.A.S.S. Device. There was a plastic toy released for this but instead I decided to base this model entirely off of two images from the cartoon that I found online, simply because the cartoon version looked more impressive. As modeled it is quite large, roughly 16" x 10" depending on how/where you measure it. As with the rest of the GI Joe files I've created it is intended to be printed at 25%. Printing larger or smaller it may have too much or too little detail.
The physical version in the pictures is roughly 4" x 3.5" x 4" tall.
This file is free to download. Please note that it is listed as “non-commercial” because this is a copy, not my own design. Neither you nor I are allowed to buy or sell physical copies of this 3-D model. You are allowed (and encouraged) to print copies for your own personal use. If you have downloaded this file from a source other than my site on thingiverse.com they have done so without my permission. Thank you for respecting me and the rights of the original copyright holder.
As always, much respect and gratitude to past and present members of our Armed Forces, you are the “Real American Heroes”. Your sacrifice allows people like me to live in peace, freedom and make silly little toys like these.
Printing tips:
I printed all of the files without supports. Orientation is pretty much what you would expect: The console_generator is printed with the base down. The beam emitter, element containers (you will need 3), and the crystal are all printed pointed up. The overhangs on the console_generator and crystal are shallow enough to not need supports.
