Devoted Pokemon fans frequently share unique creations that showcase their love of the iconic pocket monsters, including one innovative fan who used a 3D printer to construct an amazing 4-foot-tall statue of Mewtwo. While there is an abundance of official Pokemon merchandise for fans to display in their homes, this custom build of the mighty Mewtwo has caught the attention of Pokemon fans everywhere.
First established in 1996, the Pokemon brand has grown exponentially, expanding beyond video games to the worlds of trading card games, the film and television industries, and an ever-profitable array of merchandise lines.

One talented Pokemon fan shares a look at their incredibly beautiful custom stained glass artwork of Zapdos, earning praise from fellow fans.
Taking to Reddit, Pokemon fan exudable shared a photo of the incredibly life-like Mewtwo statue they 3D printed. Introduced as part of the Gen 1 Pokemon lineup, Mewtwo is a Psychic-type Legendary Pokemon among the franchise’s most recognizable and popular pocket monsters. The powerful Pokemon has a distinctive bipedal feline appearance and is canonically 6′ 7″, making Mewtwo stand out among other Pokemon in more ways than one. Seeking to bring Mewtwo to life, exudable decided to begin 3D printing the Legendary monster. They printed out smaller, individual body parts and epoxy-bonded each piece together. After a week’s labor, they had fully constructed an almost 4-foot-tall Mewtwo replica statue. While noticeably smaller than its canon stature, the 3D-printed Mewtwo quickly caught the eye of Pokemon fans online, with many shocked to see a realistic Mewtwo casually standing in someone’s home.
3D-Printed Mewtwo Statue
Fellow Pokemon fans were quick to joke that the creator must be careful not to let such a powerful creature out of their sight. Some suggested printing a helmet and armor to create Armored Mewtwo, a popular iteration of the monster featured in the Pokemon animated television series. Others pointed out that a smaller Mew would make the perfect companion for the imposing statue. According to OP, the Mewtwo statue weighs in at an astonishing 40 pounds thanks to over $600 worth of filament. Naturally, future developments may take some time. For now, both the creator and the online Pokemon community are happy to admire the simple realism of a massive 3D-printed Mewtwo.
As many fans keep their fingers crossed for more news on the next Pokemon video game installment, others entertain themselves with community-made content. With a range of official Pokemon-branded merchandise and stunning community creations to admire, Pokemon fans have plenty of official and online collectibles to enjoy.
