I'm pretty sure this is a mockup. Putting a heatgun to it would make it into a glob of warping plastic... [8D]

Working model meaning that parts move. Of course it doesn't really work like a real one. The interesting thing is that all of the parts used to make it were printed in a 3D printer. I recieved a sample from these guys. Pretty cool stuff. If I had $15K to blow I would buy one.
