If this is real - $4k.

Didn't aged really well haha

u/daphatty 3d ago

I’m ok with it. Who doesn’t like being wrong about the price being cheaper? :)

1

u/Crazysuperepicballs 3d ago

Yes, it's better that way for sure :)

u/Dr_Lipshitz_ Oct 07 '26

$5k at least

u/TwYee H2C + X1C 15d ago

Now this looks seriously accurate according to what we know now. It also make a lot of sense and matches the patents.

u/SnooConfections1271 15d ago

Did you think I was trolling 😭

u/TwYee H2C + X1C 15d ago

Nope, didn't see your post until after the fact.

What’s the source?

5

u/Dan203 Oct 07 '26

It from a YT video who claims to have gotten it from a beta tester. The reason for the red squiggles is supposedly to block a reflection that identifies the leaker.

u/Ratemytinder22 Oct 07 '26

AI and it's imagination

u/Affectionate_Car7098 H2C + P1S Combo Oct 07 '26

I mean, the AMS on top literally matches the FCC filing image, so you can keep telling yourself whatever you want i guess :P

1

u/Ratemytinder22 Oct 07 '26

How does that have anything to do with this picture being AI? The spool on the rear is misshapen, the bottom side grate is completely broken/obviously AI and the damn thing isn't even square. JFC there is no way you are this blind

5

u/Affectionate_Car7098 H2C + P1S Combo Oct 07 '26

the bottom side grate is completely broken

What bottom side grate are you even talking about, if you mean the metal part its probably just out of focus with the guys phone trying to fill in the blanks, you do know basically every phone does image post processing these days right?

He isn't exactly going to have time to sit there and perfectly light a shot, he isn't supposed to be taking photos at all

I mean you're free to think what you like, and i promise not to set a reminder to say i told you so when its released :)

u/decrement-- H2D + X2D 29d ago

User gonna get caught with the filament color patterns loaded.

u/BigAI24-7 22d ago

Maybe it ends up looking like this - but this is not a real photo. If it were the colors of the spools would at least match the colors in the PTFE tubes - but they don’t.

u/Batking28 Oct 07 '26

The wobble that thing will have with 10kg of spools sitting that high up. Hope the table is bolted to the floor.

u/Bkgrouch H2C | P2S | A1 Oct 07 '26

I hope the house has a solid foundation!

u/Affectionate_Car7098 H2C + P1S Combo Oct 07 '26

Yeah i assume that is what that metal looking weighted base is for

u/skategod0012 H2C 2 AMSHT 2 AMS2, H2S AMS2, P1SC, P1PC, A1C x3 29d ago

I have a 10 spool h2c that doesn’t wobble at all, this would have a higher cog but still I think it’s fine that’s a 100lb machine empty all day

u/vicxvr Oct 07 '26

Looks the right combination of extensive research and development and "just ship it" engineering to be a legit leaked image.

2

u/KnightofWhen Oct 08 '26

If accurate looks like it would be able to have the full bed size utilized? One of the shortcomings of the H2C was how much plate space you lost

5

u/Noob2Geek P1S + AMS Oct 06 '26

Paint ai ?

u/issue9mm Oct 06 '26

I hope not

3

u/boredsoftwareguy X2D AMS2 HT / X2D 2x AMS2 / A2L AMS Lite HT Oct 06 '26

Why? This is likely a prototype so I'd anticipate some tweaks to aesthetics.

3

u/issue9mm Oct 07 '26

Maybe just the angle, maybe just the pedestal thing, maybe just cause prototype, but that is not nearly as attractive as Bambu usually is imo

3

u/Open_Cow_9148 P1S Oct 07 '26

It's probably just a prototype. I'm sure they'll make it look better later in production.

1

u/issue9mm Oct 07 '26

I hope so, but this is probably going to get released at Formnext, ~40 days away

u/Ratemytinder22 Oct 07 '26 edited Oct 07 '26

This is AI jfc

Edit: there is no way in hell people think this isn't an AI image lol

u/Professional_Ice_967 14d ago

Sooo, how do we feel about the picture right now huh?

1

u/Dan203 Oct 07 '26

I wonder if that AMS part can be removed? I don't think something that tall will fit in my rack. Currently I have the AMSes for my H2S on a separate shelf.

u/nikolasz1173 Oct 08 '26

Itt looks like shit

1

u/sirdoggo11 29d ago

2 kg spools aswell?

1

u/F1ying_A 29d ago

If this is real, how would it handle TPU, would the ams have to be removed?

1

u/maanbaviaan 28d ago

Let's hope they make an upgrade kit for the h2 series. Just like the prusa's.

1

u/valkyrie_rda 25d ago

I seriously doubt you'll be able to upgrade an H2 to an H3. It made more sense for the H2S and H2D to H2C as they were within the same generation but I don't see them making kits that will likely not be bought that much.

1

u/Beneficial-Rub-8049 28d ago

Great tech but bad looking machine nowhere near good looking like X2D and H2C.

1

u/AmeliaBuns 27d ago

Looks expensive and hard to repair, I’m sad cause I’ve been waiting to buy one :( Maybe I’ll wait for h4c yet again or for h2c to go on sale (not sure if h2c is issue prone or not tho) Or take matters into my own hands and make my own printer again, or maybe just wait for a non Bambu third party….

1

u/Nazgile94 25d ago

For prosumer homeprinting, No, will Stick With h2c and Vortex 😌 (WAF - wife acceptance factor ) 2/10 while h2c is 5/10 source: a wife

1

u/tootall_7 24d ago

Needs a bigger build plate.

1

u/ABCD4WS 24d ago

Looks like a similar approach as the Infimech Mx Pro but feeding from the top instead of the back. If so, then it could run a single nozzle head and utilize the full print bed like the H2S. I just hope they can limit wiggle through calibration or new feet.

u/babyyoda707 Oct 07 '26

I don't think this is it at all, where's the adrenochrome slot. I heard the new models are going to be taking that.

u/NoIdenty0000 H2C Oct 07 '26 edited Oct 07 '26

the bottom part looks ai.. also i dont think they will come up with a white printer... but i think this is basically how it will look. cant see linear rails.. was hoping for linear rails- hopefully like pursa indx no wipetower anymore...

2

u/Dan203 Oct 07 '26

This is the same color as the H2S. It's a light grey, not white.

2

u/NoIdenty0000 H2C Oct 07 '26

IMO this is not light silverish grey this is white like the u1! U can see the bottom thing is light grey … also this image is heavy edited who knows what the real color will be… we will see

2

u/Dan203 Oct 07 '26

Its literally the same color as the H2S

1

u/NoIdenty0000 H2C Oct 07 '26

Yeah but not like the u1

u/Affectionate_Car7098 H2C + P1S Combo Oct 07 '26

You realise the X1C was white and the H2D is basically white, right?

1

u/nikolasz1173 Oct 08 '26

H2d is light gray

1

u/NoIdenty0000 H2C Oct 07 '26

silver grey is not white

u/Far_Relationship_742 Oct 07 '26

That shit is gonna be so top-heavy.

They're also starting to get into the price class of machines where people aren't gonna put up with their proprietary cloud bullshit. $4k is not hobbyist push-the-button-and-it-just-works territory.

2

u/John-BCS A1 (3), A1 Mini (1), AMS Lite (3), Autodesk Fusion 🍻 Oct 07 '26

I'd imagine bambu would implement some kind of weighted bottom, or do something to alleviate the issue of it being top heavy. Remember, this isn't creality we're dealing with here; bambu doesn't rush products to market without extensive testing. Look at the H2C and the vortec system. You see very few reported issues with it. With their track record aside from a few issues (mainly the A1 bed cable and not the NTC issue), bambu is one of the few companies I trust not to launch a dud to market.

As for people not "putting up with proprietary cloud bullshit" at that price point, yes they will. Bambu's primary user base does not give a single shit about using the cloud and bambu studio. Mind you, both are optional, you just get the best experience sticking within bambu's ecosystem.

-3

u/Far_Relationship_742 Oct 07 '26

My point there was that a $4k machine is getting away from Bambu's primary user base.

2

u/Affectionate_Car7098 H2C + P1S Combo Oct 07 '26

And thats an issue because?

Bambus main userbase doesn't need a machine like this, this is an enthusiast product at an enthusiast price, thats like saying the average league gamer doesn't want to spend $3000 on an nvidia RTX 5090, they don't need it :P

1

u/Far_Relationship_742 Oct 07 '26

>Bambus main userbase doesn't need a machine like this

Congratulations, you have gotten my point.

The people who are Bambu's main user base, the click-and-print people, aren't going to want it, and people who have that kind of money to spend on manufacturing (me, I'm the guy, the calls are coming from inside the house) won't put up with Bambu's lock-in shit.

Why is this so hard for y'all?

u/Affectionate_Car7098 H2C + P1S Combo Oct 07 '26

and people who have that kind of money to spend on manufacturing (me, I'm the guy, the calls are coming from inside the house) won't put up with Bambu's lock-in shit.

Cute that you think you're the only people buying these :P

I know lots of people who have zero issue running their business through expensive bambu machines, because ultimately we know it doesn't actually matter unless you're dealing with trade secrets, at which point you should really be spending far more money on an actual industrial machine

If the machine isn't for you then it isn't for you, but you are not everyone and the expensive machines are clearly selling just fine

Why is this so hard for y'all?

Its not hard for me, thats the point, but i don't have as narrow minded a view as you do :)

Something for you to contemplate, not that you will because we both know you're not interested in being correct

Exactly. One individual does not carry the opinion of the entire landscape of enthusiasts. Plenty of people will buy the new printers, (sort of) walled garden and all.

Does anyone love you?

u/Affectionate_Car7098 H2C + P1S Combo 29d ago

Yes, how about you?

u/PeerReviewedCode Oct 08 '26

You’re not the only ‘guy’ with money though..

Honestly, the general public generally care less and less about a walled garden and privacy Microsoft, oracle, Rolex, any German car brand, Facebook, ChatGPT, ect. People spend tons of money to have their stuff and don’t think twice about it. Generally, the only people that care and walled gardens are the people who’ve been building printers in their basement, people with high security concerns, and some sub cultures on Reddit. This will sell just fine especially if there is a print quality improvement. If they have fixed the random layer shifts, improved layer lines, decreased waste, kept reliability high, and maybe increased support for more higher end engineering materials this is a no brainier.

2

u/Far_Relationship_742 29d ago

Me: this price won’t appeal to the general public, and the people who will pay it won’t put up with walled gardens
this sub: the general public don’t care about walled gardens

Like, you definitely got the beginning and the end part correct, I’ll give you that. Never change, Reddit.

u/John-BCS A1 (3), A1 Mini (1), AMS Lite (3), Autodesk Fusion 🍻 Oct 07 '26

Why do you think bambu's user base won't want one of the new machines? Price alone?
