Historical significance, love of the medium, interest in the technical/creative processes, fun and thrill of the hunt, respect for the material. It's not about just putting an image on the wall. Even then, print quality of a pic found online would be terrible.
Speaking of replicating figures with 3D printers, I'd love to work up a replica of the early Playmates TMNT protos. There's quite a bit of reference out there.
