Play-Doh, Hasbro’s glutenous modeling compound with the Proustian aroma, has offered hand-powered extruding kits since your parents were eating the stuff in the 1970s. Very Early Play-Doh Extruder, 1980s edition A smart collection of books, magazines, electronics kits, robots, microcontrollers, tools, supplies, and more You can either use the designs given or you can use the blank design board to create your masterpiece. Load the styler with the deco pop tube in whichever colour you are working with. Then press on the lever to decorate your chosen design. Leave to harden overnight. This new range is perfect for slightly older children who still love Play Doh (who doesn’t!!) and would like to do more with it.

I on the other hand have a love-hate relationship with it. I love the scope of play it affords. I hate scooping it off the carpet! Of course, extruding Play-Doh (and similar materials) through a 3D printer is not new. Hyrel has been doing it since sometime around Winter 2013 with their desktop printers the “ Engine” and “ System 30“. (The Engine was not quite ready for Make’s July / August printer testing, and the System appeared later.) The ‘doh’ is a little bit thinner than the normal Play Doh so you can create beautiful designs. It is much like icing or frosting. The styler does require a bit of getting used to and some pressure so that the deco pop comes out effectively so I think the target age is about right. It may be difficult for younger children to use. Looking like a hand-held glue gun, the DohVinci appeared a few days after Hasbro announced a collaboration with 3D Systems, to, in corporate speak, “co-develop, co-venture and deliver new immersive, creative play experiences powered by 3D printing for children and their families later this year.” The juxtaposition of the two events has set some industry minds pondering why the company showed off a product that is a primitive extruder along with a new formulation of Play Doh that produces smooth results when run through that toy.

I was really pleased to visit Hamleys recently and be privy to the introduction of Doh Vinci – the new creative range from Hasbro. Jadyn was thrilled to meet Dani Harmer and have a picture with her. This is a lovely creative kit for children over 6 years and Jadyn loves spending time with it. I have also been trying my hand at it and I enjoy it too. But this year, at a invitation-only preview event away from the prying eyes at Toy Fair, Hasbro was showing off the latest in their Play-Doh extrusion kits, tailor made to jump on the Next Big Thing: the DohVinci.
