The two companies are working together to 'co-develop and commercialize innovative play printers and platforms later this year.'"

[Ed. Note] The first one I would print is Applejack.

    My son has some not-LEGO blocks that fit together and don't look like they need high tolerances (Mega Blocks I think it is). Each piece is about the size of 10 or so single LEGO bricks though, so that might not be good if you want to build larger structures with lots of bricks.
