Bear – Masha and the Bear | Mini Flexi #163

Bear has arrived as Mini Flexi #163! This gentle giant is one half of one of the most recognizable animated duos: Masha and the Bear. The story follows Masha, an endlessly curious and energetic little girl, and Bear, a kind and patient former circus bear who usually ends up dealing with the chaos created by her latest adventure. Despite all the trouble, their friendship is what makes the pair so much fun. For this Mini Flexi version, I wanted Bear to keep his big, friendly proportions and instantly recognizable expression while still fitting perfectly into the compact articulated style of the Cats3D collection. Masha and Bear Of course, Bear shouldn’t be alone. Masha has also been created as Mini Flexi #162, and together they make a great matching pair. The images show both models side by side. Masha is not included in this MakerWorld download, but you can always check the Mini Flexi Hub to see where each model in the collection is currently available: https://app.notion.com/p/36c71fc86c0b8095b840dc036b2ce832?v=36c71fc86c0b80eab12a000c36fcebf3 The Hub is always the best place to find the current location of Masha, Bear and all the other Mini Flexi models, even when models move between platforms over time. Colours Used One of the nice things about Bear is how simple the colour setup is: only four colours! I used: Bambu Lab PLA Cocoa Brown Bambu Lab PLA Matte Latte Brown Bambu Lab PLA White Bambu Lab PLA Black Just four colours for the complete character, making this a particularly easy multicolour Mini Flexi to print. Printing Notes Bear was designed specifically for multicolour FDM printing. The large and clean colour areas help keep the print straightforward, and the four-colour palette means it can be printed with a standard 4-slot AMS setup without filament swaps or extra colour management. The articulated body provides movement while maintaining the compact proportions of the Mini Flexi collection. As always, check the included print profile and preview the plate before printing, particularly if you move the model to another slicer, duplicate it or change its scale. More Than a Keychain Mini Flexi models can be used as: Keychains Backpack pendants Small articulated toys Collectible figures Decorative Mini Flexi Magnets with your own magnet setup And of course, Bear looks particularly good displayed together with Masha.
