Someone on reddit pointed this out. Makerbot shows this printer printing these crazy teeth. It can't be printed in one piece without supports like being depicted in the photo. Do you guys consider this to be false advertising, or just clever marketing? I honestly have no problems with this at all.

Well it is kinda, as people with no knownledge how these printers work will think that it would be print able like that.
But i guess its more to show how big your print volume is.
If the ad doesn't specifically state that this picture is for build space references only then it's pretty clearly false advertisement. Stuff like this is what will eventually drive customers insane with frustration and will most likely lead to Makerbot's downfall, 5th Gen already being a massive disappointment. Also stuff like this could impact the future of this hobby as well. Clearly FDM printers cannot print as depicted, and anyone who says it can is a liar.
