Multi-Part design is to be printed out in separate parts in the corresponding colors to eliminate the need to paint. This also allows everyone to be able to print this design regardless of what printer you are using.
After completing the Mariolorian design I was requested multiple times to create a Luigi style charictor. What better way than to adapt him as Boba Luigi!

I had a fantastic time when I was finally able to dig into this design, and I as so pleased with the results. Hopefully you are two.
I made several subtle changes to the helm, including the ear pieces to look and function much like a Boba Fett helmet. When assembled correctly the view finder is free to move up and down.
I altered his stance and posture to accommodate a back pack weapon while still remaining balanced quite well.
Just as Boba Fett has his staff, Boba Luigi has his vacuum. The vacuum came out fantastic! With the use of transparent PLA for the main vacuum tube, it’s out of this world!! This was one piece I was shore to test print first to make sure to get the right settings dialed in and make this part really pop!

I scaled the original design up 215% and adjusted the clearances between the parts if you are interested in printing a large Mariolorian I suggest using the parts with 215 in front of them.
Printing should be fairly simple I tried to keep the need for s down to a minimum. The White fist and the arm parts will need but that’s about it.
Assembly…
Most parts like the helmet and main body are self-explanatory once all the pieces are printed out. I highly recommend printing all the pieces out and dry fitting everything before applying any glue.
I always use PLA Gloop for the best results. It has a strong bond that chemically welds to two pieces of plastic together. Applying a few drops to one side then pressing the pieces together for a few seconds works for me. If you have access to PLA Gloop, I highly recommend trying it out.
There is a bit of complication when it comes to the hands and assembling the vacuum wand. I changed the design several times trying to eliminate some issues with these parts.
I recommend completing the helmet and main body separately. Complete the main body by adding the legs, feet, belt and torso parts all together. Do not add the Arms yet.
Complete the vacuum backpack. Be sure to dry fit the silver vents in place before glueing. They look very similar, but are different enough that it does matter what side each one of them goes on.
Before glueing any part of the arms together ensure that the appropriate wand piece can easily slide in and out of the corresponding hand. There is a bit of clearance between these parts baked into the design, but I found some material still attached to the hands can create some issues. Once you are happy with the movement between these parts are free, glue the arms together. Adding the fist and shoulder armor.
Glue the corresponding arm to the completed main body, then assemble the wand in the arms while they are in the main body. First add the handle to his right hand. Then add some glue to both holes in the silver center piece and insert it onto the end of the handle between his hands. Now add the vacuum head by inserting the one end through his hand and into the silver center piece. Then add the silver hilt piece to the end of the handle locking in his right hand.
His competed vacuum pack should slide on the main body easily hanging in place. Glue the two halves of the vacuum hose together, and dry fit it in place before glueing. This is where ensuring that the wand pieces can easily slide in both hands is necessary as moving the wand in his wands will help line things up.
