When this technology filters thru and becomes economical enough, will there be a paradigm shift in this TS hobby?

Maybe it is already happening.......these figures are picture perfect,,,,I have seen a plastic figure assembled in pic's....how they can model a 1/35 model so well I do not know....I would like to know their sculpting teck......Yes one day 3D printers will be as common as PC's are today......any soldier...any amount...anytime....it is a worry for the TS industry but I imagine they will simply do the same themselves and we would have cheaper TS,,,and maybe the metal figures would still be in demand for serious collectors....who knows ?.....only hope I am still around and I can get me a 3D printer..WOW...would I have a ball,,,cheers Chris....TomB
