I tried to post some video to youtube but it wasn't cooperating so video should be up in the next day or two. If anyone at Monty Madness wants to demo this come find me, I should be in the Vex pits.

These are really cool i got to see them at Monty and our mentor (head vex ref at Monty i believe) Ben Mitchell explained to me how they were made. This is really sweet.

Where the wheels made on a 3-D printer? If so, that is even cooler!

Yeah they were made on a 3D printer. The design isn't mine though I found it on the vex forum.

do you have any kind of suspension?

Hmmm Ill try to answer your questions.... even though dustin will correct me.... from what ive seen they work fairly well.... might be better in other peoples opinions... i dont know the material.... and from what i saw there is no suspension

That's awesome, how long did it take to print each roller?

I would also love to see some video of this in action, this could become a very cheap way to prototype a mecanum drive if someone started selling these.

thats awsome for you to accomplish that. I hope that they work as cool as they look. I cant wait for a video of it in action.

Three dimensional printers for rapid prototyping typically use ABS plastic, which is likely the same for the wheels.
