I read that this morning too!
Definitely interesting!
And not to be funny, but they may think about expanding into our realm of collecting. I am sure people that want really top notch costumes and prosthetics additions for CONs would pay top dollar for something fabricated by them!

Cool stuff. I was thinking how this could be used to design/make custom foam storage for high value collectibles.

You could do that now yourself with a hot wire cutter. I make some already for wine bottles and will be doing so for all my kits when they are completed!
