‘Smart toy’ outfit secures cash, with contributions from games and anime angels

MakieLab has secured £1.4 million in funding for its user-designed, 3D-printed action doll business model.

The company lets users design digital dolls via its website. The designs are then made physical with 3D printing, and sent to customers who pay for the dolls.

Currently in open alpha, the service will eventually expand to included dolls with various new features, and link the vitrtual world where the Makies are created with the physical product through social and gameplay mechanics.
