I love Rock Band. I have done nothing but champion the game since it was released. I had dinner with Alex Navarro, and made no secret to him throughout the meal how much of a fanboy I am of the title his company has created. If he would have let me give him a beej, believe me, I would. So it should be of no surprise to you that I am very excited for the band mate figures, which are currently available for sale through Rock Band's homepage.

The Boston Globe recently (well, a month ago, but I bet you never saw it so nah) had a video interview up with ZCorp, the company behind the printing machine which will be producing all of the figures. It is a really interesting look into how each one is made, and only makes me all the more excited to get my own. Seriously, I spent about five hours last night fussing over how I should make my character look for the toy. It is that much of a big deal. Katrina and myself will be doing a review of the figures once we get our hands on them, so be sure to stay tuned for that. In the meantime, if any of you play Rock Band, are you getting figures of your in game characters? If so, what does your character look like?

Also, do ya want to play? I've got nothing else to do, really.



MOAR I want to have sex with that:

3D printer? I thought it would be something a little cooler... but, I guess for custom figures that is the best thing to do.
Pretty cool!
I love this idea so much. I think its a great feature, and I will totally get one of these at some point.

But in general, the idea of getting 3D sculptures/figs of your own, customized in-game character is just mindblowing. This would be an amazing idea to grow on.
cool video - I'm surprised how fragile the final product is,
but the concept is very awesome. I hope the future
brings more innovations like this into the figure
manufacturing process.
