Star Wars fan Liam Porter has recently received an awesome 3D-printed prosthetic arm that will help him with simple daily tasks while allowing him “move” like a Stormtrooper.



Created by 3D-printing enthusiast John Peterson from online community E-NABLE, the prosthetic arm was specially designed to resemble a Stormtrooper arm.



The prosthetic arm was presented to Porter, born without part of his left arm, by two Imperial Stormtroopers at a movie theatre in Augusta, Georgia.



To complete his new look, the lucky fan also received an Imperial helmet and a cool certificate from the Georgia garrison of the 501st Legion, a group of Star Wars cosplayers.



Watch the video below to see the prosthetic arm in action.
