3D printed “Lego” R2D2 robot

From Thingiverse: www.thingiverse.com/thing:168833. Printing this item for my son sent me looking for more information about how Lego is reacting to this potential threat to its IP. According to this recent Washington Post blog post it seems they take it pretty cooly. It is worth mentioning they are right when Lego says the quality of 3D printed parts doesn’t match the one of its production lines. But I’m sure they’ll revisit this assumption in a few years (if not before!).
