Hey guys,

Have any of you tried to create your custom action figures through 3D printing? How about prototypes?

There's this new 3D printer out by XYZprinting that does full color prints. It uses CMYK inkjet tech to add color to every layer of PLA filament.

Check it out: https://techcrunch.com/2017/08/31/xyzpr ... d-printer/

What do you think?

sounds great. I heard the newest tech is to scan a person with laser to get accurate 3D file, could be printed out, this is very efficient!.

That would be great, making yourself as an action figure by scanning and printing in full color.
