Attention, parents! You can now turn your entire family into LEGO minifigures, thanks to advances in 3D printing technology. A UK-based company, Funky3DFaces, is offering a unique service where you can customize your very own minifigure with the likeness of your choice. Imagine the joy of seeing your little ones and even yourself as mini LEGO versions!
Just in time for the holiday season—or perhaps a spooky Halloween surprise—these custom LEGO figures could be the ideal gift for your young LEGO enthusiasts. For just $34 each, you can create these delightful keepsakes. All you need to do is snap a couple of selfies: one of your face without glasses (yes, no nerdy specs!) and another profile shot. Their website provides detailed photo guidelines to ensure your minifigure looks its best—no one wants a LEGO version that resembles the villains from classic movies.
You can even mix and match hairstyles or colors to create the perfect look. While a full-body LEGO version is, unfortunately, off the table due to costs, this actually works to your advantage. It means you can place your face on any LEGO body you fancy—be it superheroes, wedding figures, or even something a bit more quirky. Just think of the possibilities!
These little creations can really add a personal touch to your kids’ LEGO adventures or even serve as a fun and slightly weird gift for adults. It’s a fascinating use of 3D printing technology, but as the wise Jeff Goldblum once said in Jurassic Park, “Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.” We’re kidding, mostly!
I have a mixed bag of feelings about this. My 7-year-old, who’s obsessed with LEGO, would love to see his face on his favorite characters. However, the concept is also a bit unnerving! Ultimately, $34 is a small price to pay for the delight (or terror) of seeing your child’s head among the sea of LEGO bricks you step on every night.
