As profiled in Clutter Issue 16, New York-based Makerbot Industries creates one of the most affordable, compact and awesomely open-source 3D printer solutions on the market today. Just this month, Makerbot has announced some very cool playset templates for producing your own plastic objects. As a proof of concept, imagine what this kind of solution could produce in the hands of Toy Artists….?

Take a look at some beautiful shots of the latest MakerBot Fairytale Castle playsets just to show you what's achieveable.

    Toys based on video games were surprisingly hard to come by in the '80s and '90s. So my jaw would have dropped as a kid if I saw photo of last week's "16 Bit Models" show in Akihabara.

    After a long period of a scarcity of Mini Munnys and complete absence of full-sized Munnys and Trikkys, all three are back in stock at Kidrobot thanks to their collaboration with Crayola. Joining them is a brand new blank version of Frank Kozik's Stache Labbit.
