Ah, the holidays. A time for family, and about as much relaxation as you can manage while the kids are out of school and fueled on a daily dose of seasonal chocolate from their advent calendars.

Your 3D printer can help (somewhat), with quick prints that provide a daily dose of fun. 3D printed advent gifts, if you will.

All month until December 25th we’re bringing you All3DP Unwrapped: daily highlights of quick and easy toys that you can 3D print over the holiday season. We’re sure to dig up something fun for you, whether it’s a daily advent toy, gifts for the holiday celebrated by your family, or just a micro project for yourself. Check it out!

Pokeball by Der_Dennis

No, it’s not officially licensed, but this Poké Ball might as well be, with how close it looks to the “real” thing. With a hinged design and room for a small (3D printed or not) Pokémon figurine, you’ll be living out your Pokémaster fantasies. The print does require “minimal support”, but other than that, it’s pretty straightforward.

Check out the design’s Thingiverse page for assembly instructions and a quick YouTube video that documents the Pokéball’s creation (and gives a real-life look at the end result).
