Only tangentially related but the new documentary series on Industrial Light & Magic (which is incredible and you should definitely watch) has a bit in it about kitbashing. In retrospect it's really obvious, but until now I had no idea how much of the greebles on the Death Star or Millenium Falcon were bashed out of model sprues. These guys were buying dozens of the same kits to have duplicates until one of the producers just went out and bought an injection-molding machine, lol.

Thanks to this thread I found a perfect gift for a friend.



The finished product is awesome, but why is this picture (of what I guess is the 3D print on some sort of sprue?) in particular making me viscerally uncomfortable?
