All were obviously 3D printed. Layer lines were very clean. Even saw a kid walking around with one in hand hugging his parents to buy it for him.

My daughter’s friend got a 3d printer for Christmas (K1C) and started making bank printing anything he could find free off Cults.

This little kid - think he is 12 - is printing those dragons and everything else imaginable and taking them to school and selling them to classmates.

Am pretty sure my daughter told me that he was selling them from $20 up to some of his classmates. Whereas chump me will give them to friends for free.

There's probably some sort of lesson to be taught here, but hell I respect the hustle.
