Seven-year-old Alex was born with a partial right arm, and back in July of last year, Albert Manero provided Alex with his first 3D printed myoelectric prosthetic arm. Neither of these two was content with that as a happy ending, though, as the story is still going for both of them. Manero, through his Limbitless Solutions organization, as well as with e-NABLE, the #CollectiveProject, and a little celebrity inspiration, presented the surprise of a (young) lifetime to Alex. Manero and Robert Downey, Jr. -- Iron Man! -- presented a 3D printed bionic Iron Man arm to Alex, as Downey tried on his own Iron Man arm to compare.
