This should be in the classifieds, you won't need to wait that long before you can post there.

Bro, Clack, nubb, and Hipster (Punksdead) have all made BS sculpts. There are other people who have made blanks but I don't know who has. As far as the Mario, final fantasy, mega man, etc. goes you may need to look at shapeways but I'm not sure if a 3D printed BS stem would work that well or if anyone has designed one.

Oh sorry. Can this be moved over there? (mods)

 I will do research on those guys you listed.

Thanks  :cool:

Nope, you need an account that's 2 months old to post there so you still have 1.5 mo to wait.

I do have a 3D printer. I guess I could make my own.

As mentioned, you need to wait until your account is two months old to post in the Classifieds. The other criterion is a postcount of 25 or higher, which you've already hit. If you haven't had success looking elsewhere, you could post a WTB thread once you meet the account age requirement.

Another thing to note is that there's nothing stopping you from replying to someone else's classified, if they're selling something you want. The only restrictions are on starting threads and selling items.
