ThingMakerMattel Is Making a $300 3D Printing Toy Studio For Kids

The ThingMaker 3D is an aggressively priced ($300) 3D printer that pairs with an app to allow kids to create a wide range of toys than span both jewelry and figurines. The companion app that operates the printer is actually a very sophisticated 3D modeling software that lets kids or parents render new toys straight from their tablet or smartphone.

If they can keep the price this low, and the quality is as good as the review says, this will be pretty awesome!
