Crackasaurs! – Hatch & Collect!

🦖 Crackasaurs: Smash, Hatch & Collect!

What’s hiding inside this egg? 👀
Crackasaurs are adorable little dinos tucked inside smashable surprise eggs!
Print your egg, crack it open with a spoon, and discover your new prehistoric buddy 🥚💥

Perfect for gifts, Easter hunts, parties, or just collecting for fun.
Every model is support-free and designed to print clean and quick. You can even pause mid-print and hide your own treats inside — from mini toys to stickers or coins! 💛 

✅ Features:

• No supports needed
• Smashable design (yes, it cracks!)
• Collectible dinos in chibi style
• Custom insert-friendly (pause & hide)

🧩 Want more? Mix it with other Crackasaurs accessories like mini bones, plants, and fossils!

Let the egg-splosion begin! 🦕

:)

✅ Important Notes (Read Before Printing!):

🦖 Make sure your Crackasaur has a cute face! Seriously – it makes them 10x more lovable 😍
⚙️ Set seam alignment to “Back” when slicing – the model looks way cleaner from the front this way.
🖨️ The egg prints smoothly, but always test 1–2 first before going full herd-mode on your print plate (trust me, you’ll want to).

❄️ Let the print bed cool completely before removing the eggs!
If the bed’s still hot, the shell may crack unintentionally – and we don’t want that pre-hatch tragedy 😅

🥄 The eggs are a bit tougher to crack than the bunny version – but hey, it’s a dinosaur egg! 🦕
It’s designed to be slightly more durable, so give it a confident bonk and enjoy the reveal!

🎁 You can hide all sorts of fun little things inside!
In fact, I’ve included bonus printable assets in the files – like a prehistoric plant, a tiny fossil bone, a dino footprint, and yes… even a tiny dino poop 💩 (because why not?).

⏸️ Bambu Lab users – there's a pre-set pause layer so you can add surprises inside the egg before it seals.
Just be sure everything fits below the edge – no nozzle collisions allowed!

🎨 Mix and match these extras, paint them up, or use them as hidden collectibles inside each egg!

⚠️ Profile Notice:

This model has very specific print logic (including layer-based pauses), and I’ve already uploaded multiple official profiles to match different setups.
To keep things clean and consistent, please do not upload additional profiles.

🧹 Any extra profiles added by others will be removed – not because I don’t appreciate the effort, but simply to avoid confusion or a messy experience for users.
Let’s keep it tidy and dino-friendly! 🦖💛 

⚠️ 📌 Important: What to do if the pauses are missing  (YES in this case we have 2 pauses!)

If your print didn’t pause automatically to insert the surprise inside the egg, here’s how to fix it:

🔶 This egg uses TWO pauses!
1️⃣ The first pause is for smaller dinos – and also for the chunkiest one (yes, the extra round guy doesn’t fit later 😄)
2️⃣ The second pause is for our tallest friend – the Brachiosaurus!

🔁 Why the pause might be missing:
Sometimes Bambu Studio removes built-in pauses if you assign filament colors before importing the model.
✅ Fix: → Reload the model
→ Then assign colors
→ Then slice
📎 This usually restores the embedded pauses!

🛠️ How to add a pause manually:
If the pauses are still gone:

• Open the model in Bambu Studio
• Use the green layer slider to find the correct layer
• Match the layer with the preview screenshot (in description)

• Right-click and choose "Add Pause"

  

⚠️ Super important tip:
📦 Always insert the dino first, then the extra assets (like plants, bones, footprint, poop 💩).
If you add the extras first, they may raise the dino too high – and if it sticks out of the shell, your nozzle could crash into it!

🎁 Psst… there’s more!
🧠 I’ve also prepared tiny label inserts you can place inside the egg — each one includes a fun little fact about the dinosaur hidden inside! 📜
Print them on A4 paper, without scaling!
If you resize the sheet, the little scroll might not fit inside the egg. 🥚

But no worries — if it turns out a bit too big, just fold the fact sheet and tuck it under the dino inside the shell (just be careful — printers love to blow lightweight paper around mid-print 😅)
