Baidu Baike:

“Biomega (強殖装甲ガイバー) is a science fiction manga series created by Yoshiki Takaya.
The story revolves around 'Bio-Armors,' extraterrestrial bio-weapons left on Earth tens of thousands of years ago,

that are discovered by ordinary high school student Sho Fukamachi and his classmate, Akira Kuishima.

Their acquisition of these powerful suits makes them targets of the clandestine organization, Knōs.
Upon its initial introduction to mainland China, the work was translated as 《变身斗士凯普》, later revised to 《强殖装甲》.”

 

Foreword:

Those who have seen it are no longer young;D
Bio-Armors, Zoalords, and Zoanoids—Yoshiki Takaya's magnum opus, a pit I will never fill in this lifetime.
The design of the Bio-Armor is truly magnificent; as a child, I longed to find a Bio-Unit like the protagonist.
However, only three exist globally, and all are already in use, with Biomega #2 devoured due to a controller malfunction.
Thus, upon seeing the anime contest, my initial thought was to craft a Unit-G, a project that has lingered until now.

 

Model Description:
1. I have striven for faithfulness to the original work, dividing it into three parts: Bio-organism, exoskeleton, and controller.

2. The intricate linear details of the Bio-organism necessitated simplification.

3. Fine linear details perform poorly in small-scale 3D printing; thinner tubing, while visually appealing, proves unprintable with a 0.4mm nozzle.

After numerous adjustments, the current size is largely acceptable, easily held in one hand, and boasts exceptional feel in both holding and throwing (yes, throwing).

After all, one cannot realistically print a washbasin-sized Bio-Unit; if any master undertakes such a feat, please share the photos;D

4. To minimize gaps, the overall snap-fit is quite snug, and the brim has been omitted (add it if you lack confidence in your printer). When necessary, apply considerable force.

5. Removing supports from one half of the Bio-organism may prove challenging; consider using a different material, such as PETG for the print and PLA for support.

6. One interior section of the controller incorporates support structures that must be carefully removed.


Assembly Suggestions:

1. It's recommended to complete one half before attaching the counterpart, paying close attention to the three central clasps; a smaller clasp acts as a positioning aid.

2. For optimal adhesion, meticulously remove all supports.

 

Other:

Five Star Stories, Berserk, Biomega…

Several classic works remain unfinished, a regrettable circumstance indeed,

much like the drifting autumn leaves outside the classroom window, the anxious anticipation of the dismissal bell,

and the faint scent of shampoo from the girl in front—relics of cherished memories.
