Last month I was approached by Anycubic to create a new Flexi for their Brand, and I thought, "who am I to say no to Anycubic?"

So the dialog started.  Keep in mind, dealing with a Chinese company usually takes a day between emails.

In my research of the company I read an excerpt from an interview of Anycubic cofounder James Ouyang saying “Following our heart is important." I wanted a way to incorporate that concept into a model, as this sentiment is also important in my life.

I started by asking them what kind of flexi they wanted, thinking they already had something in mind... nope!  To be perfectly honest, for me, sometimes coming up with an idea is the hardest part. No pressure.

I thought about it for a couple weeks and finally decided this Alien was a great idea! They liked it too and here we are, finally able to share the collaboration with you.   

As I'm sure you noticed, he has a synthetic Cube in his chest, (like a heart). He also has The Anycubic font "A" on his belt.

Something I pushed for was allowing me to share it with all of you before the official release, and they agreed. Sept. 12th for Patrons. Woo hoo!!!

Thanks again,-Dan

I pray my internet is fixed soon or I can’t download any FF files 😢 on a plus note I did come second in the AnyCubic sword contest a while back so have some of their filament ready to print the Alien 😊

Phill Griffith

Incredibly awesome! Congratulations and keep up the amazing work! Hoping for an Astronaut vs Anycubic Alien meeting.

TIMOTHY L DURHAM

So cool I’m looking forward to getting this

Joseph Olson

Awesome you got approached by a fairly big name in consumer printing. Getting them to let you release it to us is an awesome job on keeping your paterons at the front of your thoughts! Not to bad of a company to deal with either.

SneakySmurf

By any chance, can it be made to stand up reliably?

Jasthad

Can this be done in resin. If so I'm doing this on my mono x

Olivier Sassine

Once it's officially released will it be free to the masses like all their other files?

Lori Toms

Can you make it more stable so it can stand on its own

Dustie Chase

Zombie v alien yes!! Zombie astro and aliens love halloween

Dustie Chase

A cool Halloween bat would be awesome could hand on sloth tree to

Paul Gettings

if that cant be released to us can you make us an alien ?

Robert Elg

He'll need a ship to sit in that will hover over the printer (fits in rails). Will go great with my Vypers and my Kobra Plus!

R&B Creations

Is there a good zombie model to go with this?

Dustie Chase

The sneak peak for September is the astronaut model as a zombie

Dan

HA! no, but he kneels really well

Dan

I don't see why not.

Dan

no, but it kneels really well and sits. I'll share more pix soon

Dan

It's possible, but i'm having some trouble. I'm planning on trying some stronger resins.

Dan

I made it so he can sit and kneel. the kneeling looks like he's communicating with the mother ship. :)

Jocie Braaksma

Love him! He will need a wife at some point too.

J Maxx
