Maybe not new in the 3D printing world, but M3D have released a colour 3d FDM printer at a relatively affordable price. Other printers either have multiple extruders, or can change fillament but the crane blends the colours together to give you infinite colour options which is very cool.
Haha true… but ultimately although this is a cool idea in reality it will be a massive pain to get it working as usually when you use multi-colour prints you need to export each colour region as a separate .STL so its more hassle than what its worth (in my opinion). But for things like tabletop gaming I can see this being useful.
