Earlier this week, Creality opened a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo for the SPARKX i8, a multi-color 3D printer that feeds four filaments through a single toolhead. The campaign went live on Monday, September 21, 2026. The early-bird price is $309, 23% below the $399 manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) that applies once the campaign ends.
At least three of the five features Creality highlights in its announcement concern color changes: switching speed, external purge waste, and prime towers. According to the company, the i8 brings external purge waste down to 0 g and removes the need to print a separate prime tower for each color change, and it also supports CMYK full-color 3D printing.
