The world was in mourning this week, as Leonardo DiCaprio lost out on yet another Oscar at the Academy Awards. As consolation for DiCaprio losing his fifth Oscar, CGTrader, 3D model marketplace for computer graphics and 3D printing, came up with the ideas for Oscar figurines to reflect Leo and his performance in the movie "Wolf of Wall Street".

"We decided: if Leo doesn't get an Oscar, Oscar obviously should get Leo. So, we asked our designers to come up with a gift, which would show appreciation for his performance. It was decided to design a special figurine. That means Leo actually got an Oscar. For this year - 3D printed one." says Neringa Kaukolytė of CGTrader.
Here are some of the best figurines:

As the Los Angeles Times pointed out, does DiCaprio really need a small gold person to tell him he's a good actor? If you have same thoughts as CGTrader, that you really, really wanted Leonardo DiCaprio to win the Oscar, maybe you can make one of these 3D printed Leo and wish poor Leo will have his moment soon enough.
