3D Printers Article Response

Three things I did not know:
1. 3D Printers have been around for 25 years. I thought they were fairly new.
2. That some printers are selling for as little as $350.
3. That 80,000 printers have been sold since 2007.

Two opinions:
1. As 3D printers become cheaper, I think a lot of people, especially hobbyists, will pick one up. (Hobbyists could use one for making things such as pieces for tabletop RPGs. I think that would be pretty cool.)
2. That I really, really want one (this is a cop out, but it's been running through my mind since I found out about 3D printers a couple years ago).

One question:
1. As 3D printers become more and more affordable over the next 20 years, will that affect the toy industry in any way?
