Drone ate my hamster, claims FPS designer

Hard on the heels of news of a ‘Terminator 2-inspired’ souvenir-extruding 3D printer comes this report from FPS designer James Waite:

“We were having breakfast at home when this little helicopter thing with an Amazon logo starts hovering above our back garden. Then it comes down and lands on the little one’s clockwork plastic hamster and kind of scoops it up into a kind of bath thing. As it lifts off we can already see how the drone is melting the hamster somehow. I then tracked the drone with my binoculars as it flew off – it looked like it was turning the hamster into a toilet plunger.”

The story becomes even more sinister.

“What with the cuts and everything, there?s more and more litter lying around on the streets. But now it’s like the streets are being picked clean of plastic. If only the drones could extrude stuff from dog poo.”

Unconfirmed reports now suggest that a printer-drone has been seen extruding a replica of itself. Amazon has declined to comment.
