National Public Radio’s Morning Edition is doing a series on American manufacturers. The series is called “American Made,” of course. But makes this story compelling is how a toy fabricator, Pretty in Plastic, has latched on to art fabrication to make a business out of it in Los Angeles.

Update: a reader points out MDMProps as a London fabricator with a similar foot print.
