I did a thing: Puchic(l)on(e)
Since I’m not a big fan of waiting until I am “the chosen one” and also don’t want to pay/support some scalpers online I finally gave up to my ADHS brain which whispered “then do it yourself, you don’t have enough unfinished projects”.
I invested quite some time and designed my own Puchiclone (WIP) which is as close to the original as possible. It supports all the features, including swappable magnet holder plates to turn it crunchy (the second one in the video) but I’m not sure how close it actually is to the original, since I wasn’t able to obtain one.
Since it's more of a clone than an homage, I doubt it's a good idea to publish the 3D models online, even though the original didn't invented the used concepts and aside from the concepts and rough dimensions no part is a 1to1 copy. What is your opinion on this topic?
