This is my take on the HANKA Robotics Spider Tank from Ghost In The Shell. I included 2 heads - 1) the original 1995 anime version with horizontal slit eyes and 2) the 2017 version which has 3 dot eyes.
For the joints, I was recommended to use heat shrink tubing around the clips. Insert the ball and then shrink the tubing around the clips. This way, the joints will stay firm for a long time.
The body was meant to be joined by rare earth magnets and a metal strip so you could pose it. However, CA glue should do.
Most if not all FDM machines will not be able to print the barrels of the minigun well. I plan on DLP printing these parts. There will be an updated with improved leg toes and minigun just for FDM.
Known Fixes:
1 - Heads need gun position holes
2 - Toes on legs need to be adjusted so it sits properly
3 - Minigun redesign for FDM printing
