Ever wondered how a hero comes to life? 🖐️

Right here in the Pittsburgh workshop, every character starts as a rough 3D print covered in filament lines and sanding dust. It’s hands-on, messy, and honestly? That’s where the magic happens. Each swirl, scratch, and patch means another step closer to turning imagination into reality, one layer at a time.

Curious what’s next after sanding? Come see the real deal at or Steel Goat Marketplace. Ask for Papa Bear’s latest creation and get a feel for the craftsmanship up close!

What character would you want to see built next?

Black Friday mission: go to Darkside Collectibles and find the Papa Bear Printz section. 🐻

For ONE DAY ONLY, Darkside is doing 25% OFF the entire store – and my pieces are included.

Right now there are Papa Bear Printz models on the shelves at Darkside, including:
• Beatlejuice in snake form
• Life-sized Stitch (3 ft tall, 4 arms, full trouble)
• Life-sized E.T. in the classic finger pose
• Godzilla and a bunch of other beasts

If you’ve been eyeing these from your phone, Black Friday is your chance to see them in person and take one home for less.

Tag your Black Friday shopping buddy so they don’t “forget” to stop at Darkside.

Black Friday at Darkside Collectibles is a ONE-DAY event, and my pieces are in the middle of it 👀

Darkside is doing 25% OFF the ENTIRE STORE on Black Friday ONLY… and yes, that includes all my Papa Bear Printz pieces.

Right now I’ve got around 20 3D printed, hand-painted models living at Darkside – from smaller shelf beasts all the way up to life-sized chaos like Stitch and E.T.

If you’ve been wanting to see my work in person (or finally take one home), this is your sign.

One day. One shop. A whole lot of trouble on the shelves.

Life-sized chaos has officially landed at Darkside Collectibles 💙🧵

This Stitch stands about 3 feet tall on a 2-foot base, with all four arms out like he’s ready to hug you… or wreck the place.

He’s fully 3D printed, hand-painted, and he’s one of the big showpieces waiting for you at Darkside.

On Black Friday ONLY, the entire store is 25% OFF – which means this guy is the lowest you’re ever going to see him.

If you’ve ever said “I’d totally put that in my game room,” this is your chance to prove it.

Shelf-sized kaiju incoming

This 3D printed Godzilla is all texture and teeth, and hes one of the easiest ways to bring a Papa Bear Printz piece home from .

Hes normally in that impulse buy price range  and on Black Friday ONLY, the entire store is 25% OFF, which makes him even easier to justify.

If you dont have room for a life-sized piece (yet), this is your starter monster.

Pick your chaos level at

On this one shelf you’ve got Beetlejuice, Superman, and Beerus all hanging out together – 3D printed, hand-painted, and ready to move.

Beetlejuice is one of the higher-end horror pieces in the Papa Bear Printz batch, while Supes and Beerus give you that hero/anime mix on the same shelf.

All of them are part of Darkside’s Black Friday sale, when the ENTIRE store is 25% OFF for one day only.

If you spot this shelf in person, tell me in the comments which one you’d grab first.
