Cars have crumple zones that absorb energy in a crash. SpaceX uses crumple zone based shock absorbers in Falcon 9 landing legs. This setting could be used for 3D printing protective enclosures for egg drop competitions.

Been using that sprite extruder for TPU for the last week. It prints it as good as PLA as long as your settings are good. Needs a bit more retraction and a cooler bed for example. But I've been blown away with the quality. Completely destroyed my fears of using TPU for anything.

@@SamZiaian 210-215 temp. Bed temp 30. Set the fan speed to 10% and 100% by layer 3 (Though I hear mixed opinions on fan speed with TPU). Print speeds are usually set to 25-30 for interior walls, 20 for exterior walls, 150 for travel. Retraction anywhere from 1.5 to 3mm but this will depend on your TPU shore strength. Obviously wall thickness and infill will greatly effect your print's flexibility, but these settings should get you by.

I have been trying to play around with infill patterns for TPU toys for my nieces/nephews/friends' kids. I think I will definitely need to try it out - I have been using gyroid and concentric infill up until this point, but the stiffness of the part due to the shape of the wall definitely interferes with the consistency of the squish. I'm not sure if it bothers the kids, but I have found that very disappointing!

Oh, I totally need to try this. Your idea with supports is very intriguing; I always try to be as efficient as I can with supports. I try to keep supports at a minimum and this could be the magic sometimes hidden setting for supports optimization.
