Good that they finally "made right" and I would love one from a novelty standpoint but...
That thing looks "3d printed" in the worst possible way. Like, they didn't even bother to do a quick pass with some sandpaper to get rid of the FDM striations.
I am not saying everything needs to be injection molded and 3d printing is awesome for small batch products (my favorite HOTAS is pretty blatantly printed). But I would at least expect a quick pass with some sandpaper to make it feel "premium".
When I saw the image I thought it was a prototype. That's pretty funny.
It is a prototype, but honestly the production model doesn't look to much better. Warning, Twitter link
It's been printed on a textured sheet, lmao
That can't be a production product...God damn it i would be pissed if i paid for something and it turned up looking like that.
