Groovy Grader being produced for a 3D printer?

[Rallymaster]

Anyone ever see this before?  My friend Mike Scott alerted me to this tonight:

free3d.com/3d-model/groovy-grader-1412.html

So for $15, you can download the 3D file and print it?  in 3D, complete with every detail and not have to build the thing?  In whatever scale you wanted?  And then paint and decal it?

Mike tells me that you can do 3D scanning with a smartphone now 

By the way, no way TD licensed this operation.

Looks like a pretty decent reproduction. I think its intended use is for computer animation software like Maya. But yeah, if someone was motivated to use the file for 3D printing that would work. It has been available since 2020, apparently Revell/Monogram and TD either is unaware or doesn't care about the unlicensed use.
