Say hello to a wonderfully sleepy platypus, an articulated flexi that prints in one piece without any assembly or supports. Each segment along its body wiggles, making it flop and shuffle delightfully once it’s off the plate. It’s a brilliant desk companion, a calming fidget for busy hands or a fun gift for anyone who loves flexi critters. Beginners will appreciate this one as it’s easy to start with no glue or cleanup required.

Available in two flavours, the AMS multicolour version features a lovely teal body with a warm orange bill tail and feet, plus a tiny black eye for a full look. The single colour version prints just as beautifully in one filament, making it ideal if you don’t have an AMS or simply want a quick print. Go classic with teal and orange or experiment with pastels silks or even glow-in-the-dark for a fun twist.

Filament Colour & Material

PLA is ideal here and keeps things easy for beginners. For AMS, go teal with an orange bill, tail, and feet (add a touch of black for the eye if you like). For a single colour print, one soft teal or a fun silk shade looks great on its own.
