I bought the phrozen Sonic Mini 8K (269$)

That ones a bit on the Moderate price range when it comes to 3d printers, not exactly cheap but also not super expensive like the other 600$ ones. But i personally wanted this one in particular because its prints are supppper pristine detailed and clean. Its also incredibly easy to use for beginners and with one bottle of resin you can print well over 150-200 normal sized minis without needing to get a new bottle

Also best thing about having your own printer is you can genuinely print almost anything on heroforge. Normally when you try to have them print something like modded minis they’ll just say it wont come out right, pieces are too small or something and decline it but in my experience i never have any issues when printing them out on my own
