Material & quality

Each figure is made from high-quality plastic that is carefully selected for durability and appearance. Our figures are usually made from PLA, but sometimes also from PETG. Please refer to our materials page for explanations and the pros and cons of the different plastic types. The 3D printing process allows for small details and unique textures that are not possible with traditional production methods. Slight layer lines or small imperfections may be visible on the figures. This is a normal and characteristic part of the 3D printing process and gives each figure its own character. Of course, all our products meet our high quality standards.

Use of the figures

Our figures are suitable for indoor use. Preferably do not place the figures in direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure to UV light can cause the figures to fade. In addition, the temperature in direct sunlight behind glass can rise sharply. Please note that PLA can deform at temperatures above 50 degrees Celsius. For PETG, this will be at temperatures above 65 degrees Celsius. For more information about the different materials we use, please visit our materials page.

To clean the figures, you can use a soft cloth with lukewarm water. If necessary, use a mild detergent for stubborn stains, but avoid aggressive chemicals or abrasives to prevent damage. We advise against placing the figures in the dishwasher, as the heat can deform the material. Always dry the figures thoroughly after cleaning.

Frequently asked questions about figures

How sturdy are the figures?

Our figures are intended for decorative use. Some figures may contain small parts that can be fragile. Please handle with care. Please note that figures can become brittle and/or discoloured if exposed to moisture or UV light for a long time. Do not place the figures in direct sunlight; at excessively high temperatures, the figures may deform. The temperature tolerance of the figures depends on the material from which the figure is made. Please refer to our materials page for properties of our materials.

How do I clean the figures?

Our 3D-printed figures can be easily cleaned with a soft cloth and lukewarm water. If necessary, use a mild detergent, but avoid aggressive chemicals or abrasives to prevent damage. We do not recommend placing the figures in the dishwasher, as the heat can deform the material. Always dry the figure thoroughly after cleaning.

Can I order a custom size or color?

For many of our figures, customisation is possible. If you would like to order the figure in a different colour, finish or size, please contact us; we would be happy to discuss the possibilities.

If I order multiple items, will they be exactly the same?

Due to the 3D printing process, minor variations may occur, making each figure unique. Of course, the dimensions are always exactly the same. Figures with solid colors will be virtually identical to each other. Figures where colors blend into each other will differ from each other. If in doubt, please contact us!
