8bit Pacman Ghosts are back… as fidget toys! Quick and easy to print, their compact size makes them perfect for on-the-go entertainment, while the magnetic design adds an element of tactile pleasure, enhancing the fidgeting experience. The magnets provide a satisfying click with each movement, echoing the classic munching sound of the original game. :-) Perfect for those who need to keep their hands busy or to relieve stress, this fidget toy is not only a playful nod to the past but also a functional piece of art that invites interaction and sparks conversation. 
 

Don't want or need a fidget toy? This can make a great magnet for your fridge with its embedded magnets. 

I used Bambu Basic PLA in Yellow (Pacman), Red (Blinky), Orange (Clyde), White and Blue and CookieCad PLA in Bubblegum Pink (Pinky) and Pale Blue (Inky).

Notes: 

  • Magnets: 
    • You will need 8mm x 3mm magnets (8 magnets in total - 4 for each side). 
    • Pause your print on layer 21/4.2mm to place your magnets into the print. After placing your magnets, resume the print so the magnets will be encapsulated in the print. 
      • Don't know how to add a pause to your print? Check out this short video about adding a pause to your print in Bambu Studio or read this short tutorial for PrusaSlicer. 
    • Be mindful of the polarity of your magnets. I use this tool to help insert the magnets: The Magic Magnet Polarity Tool v2 by tjdesign | Download free STL model | Printables.com 
    • In order to easily insert the magnets with a tool like the Magic Magnet Polarity Tool, you will want to have your Pacman Ghosts print near the front of your printer so you can easily insert the magnets. 
  • Ironing: 
    • I recommend ironing the top surface to make the fidget toy nicer to use.
