Just posted on the MakerBot site: the advanced hobbyist Thing-O-Matic 3D Printer is about to start shipping this Friday. Those who’ve ordered the device in advance will receive their shipment in the order it was received by MakerBot. 
 
The new printer is perhaps the most advanced hobbyist 3D printer kit available, including a precision Z-axis, nearly-indestructable extruder, USB connection and a very unique heated bed equipped with an automatic conveyor belt to drop your prints conveniently into a basket for you. 
 
For a sneak peek at how tricky the assembly will be, just check out the instruction wiki right here.
