*I brought some t-glase and the woodfill from them previously with no problems.

It is pricey stuff...but hopefully worth it.
750g spool was about $67
1.5kg spool was about $100

He don't have it one his site yet but taken from thier twitter AKA @PrintedSolid just yesterday...

"Woohoo!  limited amount of @colorfabb #bronzefill in stock for US shipments.  DM or http://www.printedsolid.com/contact/  to order

Do you have a link for the US distributor?

It came out from Colorfabb about 2.5 weeks ago (in the Neatherlands). The US Distrbuter PrintedSolid took some orders last week and they mailed them out yesterday. I will probbaly get some in my hands on Thursday.

There is post processing needed to make it shine. I have heard people using sandpaper, dremmel tool, and/or rock polisher for the sanding; And for the polishing metal polish, ketchup etc.

Here is a quick How to print with Bronzefill link http://learn.colorfabb.com/print-bronzefill/
* I am gonna have to learn about antique patina and metals. That effect looks wicked.

How long has the wait been for you to get it (so far)?

I will be getting some from PrintedSolid(a US reseller of colorfabb) once they get some in a few weeks. This stuff is 80% bronze powder/20% PLA and something like 3 to 4 times heavier then PLA.

There is stuff on twitter about it including some sample prints. I can't wait to get my hands on this stuff!

So tempting except I'm in the states and the shipping is quite pricey. I might do it anyways even if a spool ends up costs waaay too much.

Clearly the benefit of this is getting a bronze look, the drawback is that you need to polish it and thus will likely lose much detail.
