MakerBot Industries

MakerBot took New York Comic Con by storm last week! Amidst the costumed superheroes, anime characters, and vampires, stood the Thing-O-Matic — the only real robot at New York Comic Con!

See the action for yourself in the above clip from G4′s Attack of the Show. Jason Mewes (aka Jay of Jay and Silent Bob fame) stopped by the booth and talked to MakerBot’s Keith Ozar who showed off some our favorite printed objects.

Lots of awesome folks in costumes stopped by the booth (shared with the badass guys at MetalMachine), but these two dudes dressed as the Super Mario Bros. were out favorite. Of course they had to pose with the turtle shell racers…

We also got a nice shout out from the adafruit blog who said “It’s incredibly smart of MakerBot to have a booth at the Comic-Con, this type of out reach to comic community is how we’ll collectively add more makers to the DIY movement. It’s also good for business – nice work!” Photo by Cory Doctorow.
