Turning a 3D-printable action-figure coffee cup into an oversized Energy Counter for Monster Friends.

#monster-friends #3d-printing #tokens #diy

Making an Energy Counter for Monster Friends out of a 3D-printable coffee cup that’s scaled for action figures. The cup is chunky enough to read across the table as a game token, but it’s still recognizable as a coffee cup, which is the joke.

The STL is Coffee Cup for Action Figures on Cults3D.
