Theirs had interchangeable media, you could use wood or plastic and it was all CAD driven. Very cool stuff, thanks for posting Mikey... BTW, anybody got 15k laying around

Jurassic Park III (2001) has a nice scene featuring a machine like this
Being in the jewelry business---I've seen these type of things for years

So I wonder how many photos you would need to get a head made...
I know of a company that back in the 80's used a process similar to this to make busts of company executives but that involved shooting the head from all sides in a complete 360 degree loop.sigpicComment

I read that article in the paper edition of the Times a few days ago. I only remember that toy-duck-like object & recall that it struck me as somewhat rough & crude. The other examples in the color photo--from the online version you linked to--are more impressive.
On the subject of Easy-Bake Ovens, there was a huge recall just a couple of months ago. You'd think that after manufacturing some version of the Easy Bake Oven for decades that they'd have figured out how to make it safe by now.

One of the Micropolis Embassy gang has one of these small-scale rapid prototyping machines. He's used it so far to make the masters for resincast models of the Micronauts comic space ship ENDEAVOR, and the body parts for an original magno-figure that he sold kits of:
