I've checked the usual telegrams and haven't found'em. Anyone have any suggestions on where to possibly find them? I think I'm not crossing any rules with this.

Btw, can anyone explain what piracy in 3D printing is about? Is this about some proprietary and costly replacement parts for a specific use? Or Patreon art/designs by independent creators? And what's Materize? Some underground platform?

A few things come to mind:

Non-Free TTRPG Ressources, basically what you would buy on MyMiniFactory or Patron etc.
Lego and similar toys
Community made content that is based on, but not licensed by, some franchises, e.g. a Mikey Mouse figurine, a 3D Avengers logo, etc.

40k it's always 40k

Thx. Explains why I haven't heard of any of that. I've stopped accumulating every hobby out there at some point, and I didn't make it to figurines and 40k.

It could be to preserve something that's likely to be taken away in the not too distant future.

Sure. Piracy and archiving can be related. But what kind of object/shape would that be? Ultimately every digital file is threatened with vanishing. Unless some people keep it around. But that's a very broad statement about how the world works in general.
