Prints are exceptional so far. Speed is dramatically better than my previous H2D and X1C before that. Surface quality is the best I’ve ever seen. Bed adhesion has been flawless.
Here’s my most recent print. Literally all I did was scale it 150% and send it to the printer. Post processing was 60 seconds removing supports and this is the end result.
This is easily the best printer Bambu has made.
As I always ask… 
Did you buy the H2C exclusively to print toys like that? If so, is it really worth the investment?
Nothing wrong with that, of course—just genuinely curious about the use case!
Impressive print, congrats!
How long did it take to print?
3 color print? Possibly 4 if using a support material? Quality looks really nice. How long was the print job?
If someone is decent at modeling, and even better at marketing, this “toy” could suddenly turn into a $300–$400 custom collectible. 
What’s wild is that this level of quality has only been available to the public for a few weeks, so most people still don’t realize how much potential these tools have.
It’s like using a pencil — you can doodle stick figures… or you can create a masterpiece. The tool is the same, the outcome is up to you.
I agree i only had a p1s and not 10+ years history with many brands but i did notice right away that probably because of all the tests it does before the print the results where right there out of the box. I understand that for many it seems like a big jump but i am guessing there are more people like me who went ‘well the p1s worked fine so lets make our lives even easier’ and money is a little less of a concern vs some of our other hobbies. I am personally amazed what you can get for under 3000 euro’s compared to say my camera and lens adictions.

Myeah, a 3D‑printed collectible? Sure, the kind of quality people are flexing with here has been possible for quite a while already – you don’t actually need a brand‑new H2C to reach that level. Instead of buying a ‘beast’ printer, you could just rent time at a local makerspace and crank out the same figurine for a few dollars.
Don’t take it too seriously, though – it just strikes me as a bit funny to buy a flagship machine mainly to prove how nice toys and collectibles you can make with it. Everyone spends money differently, of course, but I’d love to see someone use it to show a truly functional part that is significantly better than what an H2D or H2S can already produce.
Personally, I wouldn’t buy a 5000‑dollar pen to draw stick figures; for that, a 1‑cent pen does the job. I buy machines to solve actual problems, and toys are just a side quest my daughter occasionally uses the printers for. If all you want is toys, there are cheaper ways to get exactly what you want than owning a top‑tier printer.
That’s true, these printers are insanely cheap these days when you look at what they can do. I’m upgrading my altimeter to one with artificial horizon, GS and a few other goodies, and that single instrument alone costs me almost twice as much.
So yeah, depending on what you compare with, they’re either dirt cheap or crazy expensive — pick your hobby poison.
In fairness to the toymakers, I do print a lot of parts for my drones. They’re not toy drones, but depending on who you ask, drones often end up in the ‘toy’ category anyway. In my case they’re surveillance and search‑and‑rescue drones used to help find missing people, so a bit more serious than that.
So my original comment about toys really shouldn’t be taken too seriously. I’m just always a bit amused that when someone buys the latest and greatest printer, the first thing they show off to prove how amazing it is tends to be toys. A complex figurine is a fun way to demonstrate capabilities, sure, but there are definitely better ways to push a machine and show what it can really do.
Please share the link of the model (me lazy bum) and send me a physical copy free of charge. Looks good from my distorted view😜
I understand you have concerns about the previous comment. While I respect differing opinions, I believe discussions are most productive when focused on the ideas rather than questioning someone’s motives. According to the forum guidelines, we should “criticize ideas, not people” and avoid name-calling or ad hominem attacks to maintain a civil and constructive environment. Let’s keep the conversation respectful and focused on the topic at hand.
great print. i agree about the quality. Mine is making master chief fridge magnets right now… Loving the minimal waste aspect. Digging it more than my h2d…
Don’t let people throwing shade affect your attitude about sharing what you print. When they paid for YOUR machine, then their opinion on what YOU are making with YOUR machine will matter, till then they can kiss YOUR …
It is an excellent printer. I’m very happy my H2C, also. Enjoy and print what makes you smile! Some should remember, “judge not, yet you should be judged”.
Until recently (before AI took over the planet), the computer market, especially video cards, was basically driven by toys: Video games. All the benchmarks weren’t about how fast you could zip files or compile code, but about one very serious metric:
“How many frames per second can this thing push in Quake or GTA?”
And honestly? Kids, collectors, and gamers are the hardest market to please. Maybe that’s exactly why they end up producing the best showcases.
Think about it: a Deadpool superfan won’t blink at paying $200–$300 for a figurine in a very specific pose. Pokémon cards, baseball cards—some go for hundreds of thousands. So why not STL models?
We just haven’t marketed this space properly yet.
Now imagine this: a limited-edition Taylor Swift 3D print hugging a cat. Only 10 pieces exist.
That’s not hundreds—that’s thousands of $$$
We’re still only scratching the surface of what 3D printers can do. Once they hit the mainstream and the average Joe realizes, “Wait… I can print this myself and it actually looks good?”—toy companies might start sweating.
I see huge possibilities here. let’s design and print those dragons.
I can hear monkeys screaming in my ears, pulling my clothes and fetching my credit card 
mmhmhmh toys 
ugh, I have a H2D, but now im wanting an H2C. I quite literally just bought the dame H2D!
I get the feeling someone who can take this machine to the true edge of its capability will try to hide the fact that the parts he makes with it are 3d printed on a bambu.
You still need to calculate a reasonable ROI, even if you’re just experimenting.
The adult industry has been a major driver of the internet and the video market, among others.
However, my question was whether the investment was worthwhile — not what factors make it cost-effective.
It’s great to hear things like this, I’ve owned in the past, the A1, the P1S, the A1 Mini and the X1/C
The X1 was an absolute workhorse and the most reliable printer I’ve ever operated in a farm
The A1 Mini however is the single best FDM device I have ever used and the only Bambu printer I still have at home - the fact they are still putting out new good printers that people can say this about is great
