3D scanners are capable of the fine detail I see in the model above. The only problem is price per resolution delivered. To achieve this detail you are looking at a $60K scanner and a 3D printer in the 6 digit price range range.

Kinda what I was afraid of. Some people on a larger scale have done cheaper powered remote control models and fun things, but for the game even if the details are dumbed down a bit, I think just too small.
Warhammer models are near criminally expensive :(
This is cool, not really sure how useful it is right now, but the potential is awesome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZboxM...e_gdata_player
Better, cleaner and stronger technology available. I printed these on one of my Dimension 3D printers. AR upper, lower, mag holders for my P220 and AR. I'll post some pictures when I get to the office.
Figured I'd be the first to post this.

Then printed and I've been using this controller in my race truck for over 2 years:
