3Doodler Announces Sales of Over 100,000 Pens; Launches New Plastics and Accessories Range at IFA

BERLIN, Germany, September 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

          3Doodler 3D pen becomes the most popular 3D printing device on the market;

                announces accessories and plastics news at Tech tradeshow

    3Doodler [http://www.the3doodler.com ], the world's first 3D printing pen, is
revealing its new accessories range of a 3Doodler stand, nozzle set, and foot pedal at IFA
this year, as well as a brand new range of eight plastics. The pen, which retailed
globally this year, allows people to 3D design incredible doodles, limited only by their
own imagination.

    3Doodler will be exhibiting their brand new accessories at the German tradeshow,
including the DoodleStand, Nozzle Set, and the 3Doodler "Pedal". The DoodleStand not only
elegantly holds the 3Doodler but also moves, helping users doodle accurate and clean lines
- especially useful for those with unsteady hands. The Nozzle Set is a series of six
interchangeable nozzles including ribbon-shaped, square and triangular nozzles, which
allow users to extrude plastic in completely new shapes and sizes - the set even includes
a handy tool for removing and storing your nozzles. The Pedal, revealed for the first time
at IFA, is a foot pedal that you control to stop and start the extrusion of plastic. This
means you can hold the pen from various angles to create and doodle without the
restriction of holding the buttons near the tip, making 3D design easier than ever before.

    Having shipped more than 100,000 pens in the past 11 months, 3Doodler is now the
world's most popular 3D printing device. 3Doodler took the 3D printing world by storm
after launching in 2013 as the world's first 3D pen, and has now far surpassed the number
of units sold by any other brand in the 3D printing space. Key to the 3Doodler's success
is how compact and easy it is to use. The pen allows you to literally draw in the air -
whether freestyle 3D sketching or tracing shapes from templates to make larger
architectural structures; the 3Doodler allows designers, geometrists, hobbyists, teachers,
and architects to test out their ideas quickly and easily.

    3Doodler now boasts one of the largest and most extensive ranges of plastics for any
3D printing related store, with a total of 46 colors across ABS and PLA. The introduction
of the new range of eight colors - including Radioactive Yellow, Cotton Candy Pink, Cafe
au Lait, and two additions to the "Clearly" range, Clearly Yellow and Clearly Black - is
based on the company's research and analysis of plastics purchasing behavior and user
preferences to date.

    "We're very excited to be showing off our new accessories and plastics at IFA, after
successfully shipping units globally and retailing in stores around the world." said
Daniel Cowen, Co-Founder. "The simplicity of 3Doodler has sparked imaginations. Just a few
of the things that have been 3D designed include a 6ft scale model of the Tokyo Tower, the
first ever life sized 3D printed humanoid skeleton, fashion designs, including a fully
3Doodled dress, and a working RC plane. That more than a hundred thousand people are using
our 3D pen worldwide marks a fantastic year for both 3Doodler and the 3D printing industry
alike; and by giving people new accessories and plastics to use with the 3Doodler, we hope
to continue sparking imaginations and encouraging people to doodle truly fantastic
creations".

    About the 3Doodlerhttp://www.the3doodler.com

    The 3Doodler [http://www.the3doodler.com ] is the world's first 3D printing pen,
having quickly become Kickstarter's most popular 3D consumer printing device. Designed by
WobbleWorks, Inc., an emerging consumer electronics and robotics company with big ideas,
the 3Doodler has been created to be compact and easy to use; you simply plug the 3Doodler
into a power socket and start drawing anything in 3D within minutes. Whether freestyle 3D
sketching, or tracing shapes from templates to make larger architectural structures,
anything is possible.

    Note: the plastic extruded from 3Doodler is safe to touch once it has left the pen,
but the pen itself has a metal tip that can reach 230c.
