Jim Rodda, better known as hobbyist 3D printer Zheng3, recently completed work on these awesomely elaborate Barbie-compatible 3D-printed suits of medieval armor. The project was crowdfunded through Rodda’s Faire Play Kickstarter project. The suit of golden parade armor is made of over 40 difference pieces, including a winged helmet, feathered tassets and a detailed coat of arms.

The upgraded version of Faire Play Barbie armor finally arrived and it’s as awesome as expected!

Those who missed the opportunity to back the project on Kickstarter can now get 3D-printing files for the above set for $29,99.
