Push Button Alien

An alien with a push button nose. This alien is 16" tall and 18" wide. The alien holds 65 bullet pixel nodes (xModel included) and is printed in 4 parts with puzzle joint interlocks. Print in 5 colors for maximum effect! Note, this alien has a mostly flat front so you'll need a multicolor printer to properly print it as there really isn't enough room to switch colors by layer.

Any 100mm 'arcade style' button should work. We're not endorsing them, but this one fits well. Unfortunately, it only comes with a black border which doesn't look great on the alien. Versions with a clear border can be found on other websites and look better (as in the pictures above).
