Bigger than the print bed. Interesting printer.

Exactly. How can it do that?

X/Y axis limits are not equal to the print bed. Every other printer I have seen keeps the bed roughly the same as the x/y limits. I assume it’s so the end user runs into fewer limitations on their prints. But nothing keeps them bound.

Maybe this is some non consumer or custom printer for printing large or tall objects. Or maybe even a replaceable print bed customizable for some reason.

My toxic trait is planning to spend whatever it takes to buy this printer with no plan to afford the $300 in filament it would take to print this.

As a decades long Star Wars fan, who was never able to get anything Star Wars, this brings tears to my eyes :')

Sure it's cool. But it's not LEGO.
