I've talked before of how an old college chum of mine was playing around with 3D printing. Well, he's perfected his technique now, and is using his filament printer to create custom toys based on his own artwork. I'd figured on him resin-casting from printed masters, but he's printing all the parts up on the printer in batches instead.

These figures are about 6" tall, and you can see the texture of the printing in this shot. But considering that Dave is using a relatively low-end filament printer, it's pretty impressive what he's able to do. AND that he's able to sell these. Doing the parts separately to be able to add different colors is a nice touch.
Tick... tick... tick...
