Anycubic Flash Sale: Kobra X at $299 and Kobra S1 Combo at $429 – April 20 to 30

April 21, 2026

Anycubic has launched a limited-time flash sale on two of its best-selling FDM 3D printers. The Kobra X and the Kobra S1 Combo are both discounted through April 30, offering some of the lowest prices we have seen on these machines. If either has been on your list, now is the right time to buy.

Below you will find everything you need to know about both printers, their sale prices, and a few additional Anycubic deals worth knowing about.

Anycubic Kobra X 3D printer

Flash sale — ends April 30

Anycubic Kobra X

Open-frame | Multi-material | Up to 19 colors

$299
Regular price $399
Save $100

The Kobra X is Anycubic’s open-frame multi-material system built around the second-generation ACE GEN2 integrated print head. Unlike most multi-colour systems that use a separate external box, the ACE GEN2 is built directly into the toolhead, cutting filament purge length by 81% compared to conventional setups. Out of the box it supports 4-colour printing with soft and hard materials simultaneously — PLA and TPU in the same print. Add up to four external ACE 2 Pro units to scale up to 19 colours. At 600mm/s maximum speed with LeviQ 3.0 auto-levelling and AI-assisted spaghetti detection via a built-in camera, this is one of the most capable open-frame printers at this price point.

Build volume
260 x 260 x 260 mm

Print speed
300mm/s recommended, 600mm/s max

Multi-colour
4 colours standard, expandable to 19

Bed temp
100°C max

Noise level

Nozzle

Materials

Best for: Creators who want multi-colour and multi-material printing in an open-frame format at the lowest possible entry price.

Anycubic Kobra S1 Combo 3D printer

Flash sale — ends April 30

Anycubic Kobra S1 Combo

Fully enclosed CoreXY | Up to 8 colours | Active filament drying

$429
Regular price $549
Save $120

The Kobra S1 Combo pairs Anycubic’s enclosed CoreXY printer with the ACE Pro multi-material system in one package. The fully enclosed design gives a stable thermal environment for engineering materials like ABS and ASA — materials that the Kobra X technically supports but that benefit significantly from the controlled heat environment an enclosure provides. The included ACE Pro handles 4-colour printing and a second unit can be added for 8-colour capability. Active filament drying runs during printing using dual 200W PTC heating elements, keeping moisture-sensitive materials in top condition without a separate dryer. At $429 in this sale, it undercuts comparable enclosed multi-colour systems from competitors by a significant margin.

Build volume
250 x 250 x 250 mm

Enclosure
Yes — fully enclosed CoreXY

Print speed
300mm/s recommended, 600mm/s max

Multi-colour
4 colours standard, expandable to 8

Filament drying
Active drying during printing (ACE Pro)

Hotend temp
320°C max

Bed temp
120°C max

Noise level
44dB (quiet mode)

Materials
PLA, PETG, TPU, ABS, ASA, PC, PA, carbon fibre, glass fibre

Best for: Users who want an enclosed multi-colour system capable of engineering materials, with active filament drying included, without spending over $500.

Buy Now — $429 (sale ends April 30)

Kobra X vs Kobra S1 Combo — which one to choose?

Both printers are on sale, so the question is which suits your situation better rather than which is cheaper. The key difference is the enclosure and material support.

Kobra X ($299)
Kobra S1 Combo ($429)

Enclosure
Open frame
Fully enclosed

ABS / ASA
Supported, harder without enclosure
Yes

Max colours
Up to 19
Up to 8

Active filament drying
No
Yes (during printing)

Build volume
260 x 260 x 260 mm
250 x 250 x 250 mm

Sale price
$299
$429

Choose the Kobra X if you print primarily with PLA, PETG, and TPU and want the maximum colour range at the lowest price. Choose the Kobra S1 Combo if you print with ABS, ASA, or moisture-sensitive materials, or if you want filament drying built into your workflow without a separate accessory.

Anycubic Kobra S1 ACE 2 Pro Combo new launch

New launch — April 24 to May 31

Kobra S1 ACE 2 Pro Combo — Early Bird

Early bird price: $459

The next generation of the Kobra S1 platform arrives with the upgraded ACE 2 Pro multi-material system. The ACE 2 Pro doubles the feed rate of the original ACE Pro (50mm/s versus 25mm/s) and cuts colour-change time from around 84 seconds to 56 seconds. It adds high-temperature drying up to 65°C during printing — 15 degrees higher than the original — with temperature and humidity detection, sealed storage, and an electromagnetic valve that actively removes moisture from the filament while the print runs. If you have been considering the S1 platform and want the latest multi-material technology rather than the current generation, the early bird window through May 31 is the time to commit.

Early bird price
$459

ACE 2 Pro feed rate
50mm/s (2x faster than ACE Pro)

Colour-change time
~56 seconds (was ~84 seconds on ACE Pro)

Drying temperature
Up to 65°C during printing

Early bird window
April 24 to May 31, 2026
