When I last spoke to activision, I got the impression that 3d prints may never return.

Has anyone heard anything?

There are still pending contests for free 3D prints (like the one GameStop did in December/January), so they kinda have to open them at least for those.

From what I understand, it's just a matter of timing. They keep some number of orders in the queue. When figures finish the QC process and ship out, that number of orders opens back up briefly. But if they have a queue of 200* and only ship out 20* per week, the odds of getting an order submitted are slim unless you're willing to check back every couple hours.


*These are just semi-educated ballpark estimates, the real numbers are most likely different.

When I ordered one, I had better luck getting through late at night. It could just be random, but maybe try when there's less traffic.

Ack. Never got around to ordering one...wanted to though...so you can no longer order figures?

Not at the moment.

If you have codes from contests or warranty then you are still okay, but you can't just outright buy one.

It might be over kids. Been trying for 2 months now also it says temp sold out. How long can that last? Not good if you ask me.

Hate to say it but I think your right.
Sucks because I was never that excited about spending hundreds of dollars on a gold fire craken, or a crystal dec'ember when there is no change in the look of the character in the game when placed on the portal.

These printed imaginators are like the ultimate exclusive variant, that actually looks like the figure in the game too.
I could buy these guys all the live long day.

Plus you can get 3 to 5 of these for the price of a variant that will never be played because there is no purpose to them other than bragging rights I guess.

And yes I have a shelf full of metallics and crystal characters, but I haven't bought one since imaginators came out, my money is only going to 3d creations as long as they will let me.

Well, there still are cards I think, so it's still possible to make figures to sit on top of them.

Almost expecting cards to get cut as well by the time I buy LIM and have spare money for random figures, though :c

oh so they shut it down now???.... that sure make the creator app and collecting parts a bit useless.

You can still order cards and T-Shirts, I think.

3D printing being out is completely understandable. A lot of figures got destroyed during shipping and that's out of Shapeways/Acti's control, and it's not exactly cheap if they keep giving free replacements.

Are all the new parts available in the app? Was anyone able to order after they updated it? It seems like they should at least give us a window of opportunity to print the new parts. I mean seriously...

at least i got one

No new updates since the app came out with its update. All the new parts look like polka dots like magic parts.

What? I'm talking about parts that everyone has been designing with in the Share Your Imaginators! topic. Are any parts left out in the app? Did anyone print with any of the new parts that were added after the game released?

New parts appear in the app but are glitched in the store.
