Most likely, after watching a favorite cartoon, each of us would want some merchandise featuring the beloved character. A plastic collectible toy is the most common and accessible form of merch for animation works. Such a figurine takes up little space but can decorate any shelf or desk and remind you of the character.«1862» is a series of collectible plastic figures based on the eponymous authorial documentary animation about a school. The series consists of three figures—different versions of one of the main characters.The figures are crafted as bas-reliefs to maintain the character’s recognizability and preserve the 2D style of the animation.The source of inspiration was the «Amiibo» collectible figures—small size, round base, and character recognizability.
Characters

The figures replicate the form and appearance of the characters to maintain the 2D animation style.
Figurine
Approximate figure height — 12.32 cm Width (at the widest point of the base) — 9.2 cm Weight — 55 g
Suggested filament for printing the figurine is PETG (strong and flexible, thermally resistant) or PLA (eco-friendly, but brittle).
Two printing options are available:
Color (Assembled) Each component is printed in a different color. This is a good option for large runs (50+ pieces). Assembly takes place during production using heat application or industrial adhesive (slots are provided only for mounting to the base). This type of assembly simplifies printing and component handling without compromising the final product’s aesthetics.
Monolithic The figure and base are printed as a single piece. Because this printing method is solid-colored, further processing and painting of the figure are required. This option is ideal for small runs (up to 50 pieces).
Palette
• Face — beige • Hair — dark yellow • Base — silver gray • Pants — dark gray • T-shirt — pink pearl • Glasses — blue pearl • Boots — blackThese colors were selected from existing spools of plastic available for purchase.
