Super Mario is loved by countless fans, with many games, cartoons, and even a feature film capitalizing on Mario’s popularity. Now that he’s got his own racing, tennis, and other sports titles, he’s more popular than ever. We all grew up trying to save Princess Peach, so we think you’re going to love the 3D printed Super Mario Bros. models we’ve gathered below.
If you want to print a real-life Mushroom Kingdom but don’t have the time or the tools to do it yourself, check out Craftcloud. With a huge range of suppliers all around the world, you’ll have Mario and the gang delivered to your door in no time.
Now, let’s jump into our list of goodies, baddies, and everything else Super Mario!
Goodies
Besides the bros themselves, throughout the Super Mario universe is a wide array of characters, but not all of them are bad guys! Though Mario steals the show, without help he wouldn’t stand a chance against Bowser and his minions. So if you’re up for 3D printing the whole gang, we’ve got you covered with Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, and Toad!
Mario
Mario isn’t just a popular video game character, he’s a Nintendo mascot spanning generations. Print him along with some baddies and play Super Mario in a whole new dimension!
There are countless Mario models, but here we have three of our favorites: a super-detailed Mario (prints in 19 files!), a retro 8-bit Mario, and an action figure with posable arms and head. The first two can be printed in different filament colors, whereas the third will need painting to really finish him off.

- Where to get it: Cults
Posable
- Who designed it: alanstanford
- Who printed it: With over 900 downloads but no community prints, don’t let that deter you, as the low complexity ensures a relatively easy print.
- Where to get it: MyMiniFactory
Luigi
Mario often steals the limelight, but Luigi has been a favorite of many fans nonetheless. If you have a friend that scares easily, and you’re Mario to their Luigi, or if you’ve enjoyed playing as Luigi in the games, you’ll love these prints! He’s not going to be able to jump without some help, but you can always work that out later…
Multicolor
- Who designed it: bpitanga
- Who printed it: 27 Thingiverse users have printed this model and it prints mostly without supports.
- Where to get it: Thingiverse
Super Mario World
- Who designed it: rorys3D
- Who printed it: There are over 600 downloads with no community prints so far, but this simple design should be easy enough to print.
- Where to get it: MyMiniFactory
Yoshi
Yoshi is such a great sidekick and fan-favorite that he’s made it to the big time and got his own franchise! If you’re more a fan of Yoshi than Mario and Luigi, or you want your Mario print to have company, you might like one of these for yourself.
This model can be printed with supports, or in pieces and glued together. Because Yoshi is not just one character, you can also print multiple colors and combos to make you’re own Yoshi’s Island!
- Who designed it: bpitanga
- Who printed it: With 51 posted Makes, there’s heaps of inspiration to get you started.
- Where to get it: Thingiverse
Toad
Toad isn’t as popular as some of the other characters, but maybe that’s because he’s always needing the help of the Super Mario Bros. If you want a companion piece to go with some of the other models, this is a great choice. We don’t recommend making him the lone guardian of your princess, though!
This model requires no supports and should be an easy print, but be sure to go over the assembly tips to make it go smoothly.
- Who designed it: BrunoPitangaMaia
- Who printed it: This friendly Toad has 5 recorded makes and over 4,300 downloads.
- Where to get it: MyMiniFactory
Baddies
The good guys would have nothing to do if the bad ones didn’t keep them on their toes, so this section is full of the Super Mario Bros.’ meanest foes! You might not need extra lives, but that doesn’t mean these guys aren’t fun to print. If you’ve already printed Mario, or you just want to start with the villains, here are some great models to choose from.
Wario
Wario also has been the star of his own games and we think this is one of the coolest prints on the list. His bigger, devilish appearance makes him the perfect complement and nemesis to your 3D printed Super Mario. This model is so good we can almost hear his distinctive threats to Mario!
This model has no special instructions, but we think it should be a relatively straightforward print, though it may require supports.
- Who designed it: nDusk
- Who printed it: No makes have been posted as yet, but there are over 700 downloads.
- Where to get it: MyMiniFactory
Koopa
Koopa is a common baddie in Super Mario Bros., so if you want to give Mario some exercise you might try printing a few of these. Obviously these ones won’t retreat into their shell when you jump on them, but they still look great!
This model will need supports activated, and the designer used a layer height of 0.1 mm and 10% infill. It prints in a single part so use a neutral filament and then add some paint to make him truly recognizable!
- Who designed it: kaici
- Who printed it: 3 Thingiverse users have made this little Koopa and it should be an easy print.
- Where to get it: Thingiverse
Bowser
Bowser is the classic fly in Super Mario’s ointment, so to speak. He causes trouble everywhere and doesn’t know when to quit. If you want a great villain to pair with Mario and Luigi, Bowser is a natural choice, but don’t blame us if you wind up having to save Princess Peach!
While this model looks a little more detailed, it should still be a straightforward print in one piece. You’ll probably need supports, though!
- Who designed it: Hillbilly ‘Mac
- Who printed it: This one has only 118 downloads and no posted makes, though it looks like it shouldn’t be too difficult to print.
- Where to get it: MyMiniFactory
Bob-omb
Bob-omb is a living bomb, but thankfully, these ones are safe to throw around all day! If you have any friends that are Super Mario Bros. fans, toss one in their lap and see what happens! Of course, these don’t walk around, tick, or explode, but they still look great next to other characters from the Mushroom Kingdom.
Here we’ve got two Bob-omb options, one sitting and one standing, and both are designed to be printed in four colors. The creator of the seated model says there’s no need for supports, and that it’s an easy print that they use to test their printers!
Sitting
- Who designed it: ChaosCoreTech
- Who printed it: No one has shared their print of this design, but 1,300 people have downloaded it so perhaps they will soon!
- Where to get it: Cults
Standing
- Who designed it: FORGE 3D
- Who printed it: 10 people have shared their makes, and they all look like high-quality prints.
- Where to get it: MyMiniFactory
Thwomp
These Thwomp blocks are not only easy to print, but they’re one of the more striking prints on this list. If you’re worried about being taken seriously because you have a Super Mario figure on your desk, maybe try slamming this one down when people have an attitude. The creator has also suggested scaling the model up for an even more impressive block.
If you want your Thwomp to pull its weight around the house, why not print it as a magnet? Obviously it won’t make the “THWOMP!” sound, but we were going to do that part ourselves anyway.
- Who designed it: EDB1984
- Who printed it: Five Thingiverse users have made this model and they all look equally terrifying.
- Where to get it: Thingiverse
The Mushroom Kingdom
Super Mario Bros. just wouldn’t be the same without the flowers, mystery boxes, warp pipes, and other assorted artifacts. If you’re looking for a box to stash your games, a pencil holder, or just a model of something more obscure, these prints are for you.
Piranha Plant
This Piranha Plant pencil holder and topper is a neat and simple print that’s great for beginners as it requires no supports. It also gives that sense of imminent peril to motivate you to get your work done. It won’t pop out of your drain and bite you, but you could always try leaving one in the sink to see how people react!
This design includes files for the leaves and the flower head to attach to any pencil, as well as the pot and a small piece to hold your pencil upright.
- Who designed it: BrandonW6
- Who printed it: 11 Thingiverse users have made this model and repurposed it for a variety of uses.
- Where to get it: Thingiverse
Mystery Block
Super Mario Bros. is filled with “?” boxes that often contain coins or power-ups, so why not make a few of your own? Already familiar as stores of loot in the games, these blocks are great to use for storing your gaming loot (or just cartridges) in real life. You can even print a question block lamp if you’re looking for some creative lighting options!
Neither of these designs needs supports and they appear to be straightforward prints. You might still feel an urge to put them up high enough you have to jump to grab them, but at least you’ll get some exercise in between games!
Cartridge Box
- Who designed it: Kickass3DPrints
- Who printed it: There’s an impressive 100 posted Makes, which is a good sign of printability!
- Where to get it: Thingiverse
Nightlight
- Who designed it: aled96
- Who printed it: Though there are only 36 downloads, don’t let that deter you as it’s a simple print that will look amazing lit up or in glow-in-the-dark filament.
- Where to get it: MyMiniFactory
Fire Flower
If you’re a fan of the games, you know the Fire Flower well, and this 3D printed Super Mario World Fire Flower is a fantastic replica! Unfortunately, eating these won’t give you the power to throw fireballs, but they will look cool in your house, and they’re easy to keep alive!
This design was made in SolidWorks and should be a pretty easy one to print successfully. It comes in two pieces so you can print the leaves separately from the flower.
- Who designed it: knape
- Who printed it: There are 45 posted Makes in a range of colors and sizes, and there are 4 Remixes, too.
- Where to get it: Thingiverse
Spiny Shell
If you’ve ever played any version of Mario Kart, you’re probably a big fan of shooting these at your opponents. Now you can print your own turtle shells and throw them at your real-life foes! This print need supports, but it should be otherwise easy to print, and will look great next to your other Super Mario Bros. models.
If you’re feeling adventurous, you could even upgrade to a Spiny Shell Racer, though you’ll need a few extra parts for that.
- Who designed it: yonatanorion
- Who printed it: Four Thingiverse users have made this model and achieved some great detail with paint.
- Where to get it: Thingiverse
Obstacles
If you want to represent your love of the game but can’t settle on just one character, we’ve got the prints for you! We love this Super Mario Bros. tile set and pencil holder because they are fully customizable. You could use them to create an entire level on your desk, on your fridge (with magnets), or right on your wall!
If you really want to go all out, add some 3D printed Super Mario coins. You’re going to have to imagine the sound effects, but if you’re like us, you already are.
Tile Set
- Who designed it: u25
- Who printed it: Five Thingiverse users have made this, and being a 2D tile set, this should be an easy print.
- Where to get it: Thingiverse
Pencil Holder
- Who designed it: AndrewBougie
- Who printed it: There are 33 posted Makes in a variety of configurations.
- Where to get it: Thingiverse
Warp Pipes
The Warp Pipes are a bit like a Mushroom Kingdom subway system, and you never know where they might lead or who will appear! Here we have a couple of models to inject a bit of mystery into your life. Naturally, these Warp Pipes won’t take you to the Mushroom Kingdom, but they do make cool-looking household items.
Whether bringing nature or light into your room, this planter and desk lamp are stand-out prints that make something as simple as pipes look amazing!
Planter
- Who designed it: jasonbuckner
- Who printed it: 15 Thingiverse users have shared photos of this model, and the designer recommends printing upside down due to the large overhangs.

Desk Lamp

- Who printed it: 19 Thingiverse users have made this in spite of the relatively complex assembly.
- Where to get it: Thingiverse
