The Ugly Duckling Collection - 16 Piece 3MF Digital Files (Standard + Small)

DIGITAL 3D PRINT FILES ONLY - NO PHYSICAL ITEM WILL BE SENT.

THE UGLY DUCKLING COLLECTION - 16 PIECES
Both Standard and Small versions included, kept in TWO separate ZIP downloads.

Bring the traditional Ugly Duckling tale to small-world storytelling. Print the little grey duckling, mother duck, three yellow siblings and two swans alongside farmyard characters, eggs, a farmhouse and seasonal pond scenes. The farmer and cottage woman complete the sixteen-piece set for retelling, sequencing and imaginative play at home, nursery or in your own classroom.

WHAT THE 16-PIECE SET MAKES
- Little Grey Duckling, Mother Duck and three different Yellow Ducklings.
- Beautiful White Swan with tiara and necklace; Friendly Swimming Swan with a neck bow.
- Farmyard Hen and Farmyard Cat with rounded arms.
- Nest with Three Eggs and Hatching Grey Duckling.
- Farmhouse, Grassy Reed Pond Scene and Winter Pond Scene.
- Farmer in brown clothing and Old Woman in green with glasses. Both have low rounded shoes in their clothing colour, with black soles and white straps, matching our Fairy Set shoe style.

Rounded faces, closed hands and fixed coloured relief on continuous backing match the other PlayGreener story collections. These are flat-backed standing pieces, rather than fully rounded figurines. The tiara, bows, necklace, eggs and scenery details are attached relief. Individual and complete-set layouts make the SAME sixteen pieces. No story text, book illustrations or loose accessories are included.

PRINTING AND COMPATIBILITY
Native colour 3MF projects for Snapmaker U1 and Snapmaker Orca. Open AS A PROJECT to keep assembled colour parts, named beds and saved settings. Print flat back down, coloured face up. A compatible multi-colour printer, slicer, filament and experience are needed. Other printers or slicers may require manual profile, colour and placement changes; universal compatibility is not promised. No Bambu-specific version is supplied.

SAVED SETTINGS
Complete Generic PLA starting profiles: 220 C nozzle / 65 C textured PEI bed, 3 walls, 10% gyroid and saved flow/cooling settings. Review profiles, colours, placement, adhesion and support needs before slicing. Print one bed at a time; change spools between beds as needed.

PLEASE NOTE
CAD geometry, dimensions, colour maps and bed placement have been checked. These files have not been sliced or physically print, strength or stability-tested. Make trial prints before the complete set. Rounded outlines and continuous backing do not guarantee against breakage or tipping. CAD checks do not certify a finished print as a tested toy. Inspect completed pieces for damage, sharp edges or loose details before supervised small-world play with children aged 3+. Keep finished PLA prints away from direct heat.

Images are renders of actual model geometry, not photographs of finished prints. Model panels show the designs rather than a shared-scale arrangement. Print-bed images show actual saved scale and placement on 270 x 270 mm beds, not sliced toolpaths. No physical models, display props, printer or filament are supplied. Colours and results depend on your setup.

AI DISCLOSURE
AI-assisted CAD tools were used in developing these model files. Listing previews are rendered from actual model geometry.

Personal and educational use, including your own classroom or nursery. Selling physical prints requires the separate PlayGreener Shop-Wide Commercial Print Licence for your business. Model bundles are purchased separately. Digital files must not be shared, given away, uploaded or resold, including modified versions. Keep your purchase receipts.
