MakerBot x UGLYDOLL: A 3D Printable Uglyverse
PRESS: "MakerBot has partnered with Uglydoll to bring their imaginative oddballs to the MakerBot Digital Store. Fan favorites Babo, Wage, Ice-Bat, and OX are now available for download as 3D printable, posable figures. Later this summer, MakerBot will release 3D printable environments, including a unique Uglydoll tour bus so you can take your favorite characters with you on vacation." - reported makerbot.com
Download exclusive Uglydoll 3D models from the MakerBot Digital Store now! Price is US$1.99 per toy. This is a swell example of a commercial application of the 3D-printing concept and "toys", methinks. I am throughly intrigued... :)
“Sun-Min and I have been fans of 3D printing for a while. Taking Uglydoll into the world of 3D printing seems like a natural extension for our Uglydoll characters.” -added David Horvath.
