[New Files!] The Dark Helmet helmet has been added to the July Specialist rewards!

The Helmet files include:

- Assembled and solid versions
- Bambu Studio Project and GCODE files to get started printing sooner!

[New Files!] Hello there! General Kenobi's Clone Wars Armor has been added to the June Specialist rewards!

Elastic bands allow the armor to flex/open around your head and the alignment keys help keep things oriented ...
