4. What events have you found work best?

SHOHEI: So far events based around pets have performed quite well.

5. If you could tell people new to the 3D printed figurine industry one thing, what would it be?

SHOHEI: As current full color 3D printers get better, the quality of the 3D printed figurines will rise, making the product more and more mass market. Right now the bottleneck for higher quality 3D printed figurines is the 3D printing technology.
