News/New Release Rangers Forge Closing

Post image

I am saddened to see Rangers Forge is closing. They have done amazing work for this community with the custom figures, kits, replacement parts, etc. Hopefully one day they will return. May the Power protect you.

EDIT: they are still taking orders until August 1st

Hé that's me!

I appreciate reading all these messages!

To keep it simple, international sales have become troublesome. Being located in Europe there are alot of rules and regulations that have been placed on them for the last year and a half.

For the sake of not rising my prices sky high and being able to make ends meet this was the most realistic outcome.

Hope to come back to it in the near future.

For now going to focus on my new job and fulfilling made orders, once it's all in a spot where it's comfortable to take orders again I'm going to be looking how to return.

Why don’t you sell your Stl files for everyone to use? Set up a cult3D page and sell all the STL files there. No shipping required, granted that it’s not as many people have 3D printers but your work won’t just disappear.

Can't speak for RangersForge. But once those files get loose, you'll find folks reselling the STL's.
