    mine is not a R2. I'm running it on a Zortrax M200. I dont have and didn't back the C2 or the R2 machines. Just doing a comparison for my own curiousity.

    They just posted an update confusing as hell to view it through their Instagram but here are the photos. Theres a video and Braydon stated they are packaging the R2s to be shipped out.

    TINY lol. Scaling up to try to match what they did. Looks ok, little on the hot side being so small in ABS

    From Robo today to R2 Kickstarter backers "... wanted to let you know that we have air shipped a container of R2's - close to the entirety of Kickstarter preorders today. We should be getting them in San Diego in a few days and they will finally be shipped to our backers! We will have another air shipment scheduled early next week as well for the few remaining units."

    Sounds like we'll have about 210 R2's in the wild shortly.

    Yep - Got my tracking number today as well. Shipped on May 26 and I expect it to arrive tomorrow or Thursday. Guess I better move the R1+ to one side and clear off some table space! Before turning the switch I'm going to inspect closely for anything that may have come loose. Hopefully Robo learned from past C2 shipping experiences. I'll take some video and I'm sure there will be plenty of photos / videos popping up later this week as owners receive their printers.

    Edit: Looks like a couple of Southern California Kickstarter backers received their R2's today - so photos and first impressions could appear at any time.

    Pokuto has posted a video of Robo R2 un-boxing and first prints.

    I thought the C2 section was going to be the section for both the C2 and R2 once the R2 was released. Will be good to start seeing first impressions soon. Let's hope the wait was all worth it for the backers.

    @mark tomlinson @WheresWaldo and I have asked that they add a specific R2 section or subsection so it can be seperated a bit (not so Beta-+ confusing :D )
