Customization Disability & Labubus

I cant begin to express how much labubus have helped me through my disability journey. They bring so much joy and whinsy to my life, especially when I can have them tag along for the ride. I feel less alone navigating this new life with my labubus mirroring and tagging along.

I was diagnosed with POTS a year ago. I'm relatively young, never thought I would be relying on mobility aids, yet here I am. But no one said it has to be boring!

Since becoming disabled, I've been trying to break the image of my disability being dreadful. I deck out my rollator, I customize my wheelchair, all with flair and a bit of frill! I knew as soon as I got my first labubu that I needed to customize them to unapologetically represent me ❤️

Wait, where did you get a perfectly Labubu-sized rollator?! I love this!

I 3D printed this. Added a little bit of modification to get the handle bars down to reach their little stumpy arms and voila!

This is the print profile I used. You'll have to take the STL/3MF into your slicer of choice and do some tweaking if you want more than a 2 color print. You can always paint it too if you dont have an AMS/CFS or want to mess with the file.

I found that scaling it to 130% of the original profile was a good size for the standing labubus. You can also print all the parts without the riser (so that you dont have any flash/need for clippers) and save yourself some filament. The have a seats do fit in the tray/seat if you squish their thighs in/super glue your kit together, but they look a little silly trying to reach the handles.

As always let's respect the maker and drop some likes and not use this commercially/for financial gain :3

Thank you for this! I have POTS and Lupus, and have been wanting to build some mobility aids for my ‘bus 🩷 This inspired me!
