The toy you’ve always wanted: Action-figure you

action1

Do you ever have those days when you wonder what you would look like with a six-pack, throwing a punch, or literally bending over backwards to do something, but you don’t have enough confidence in your own strength and flexibility to actually try? Have you gotten tired of your usual action figures, wishing it was you fighting the bad guys? Well, you don’t have to wonder or wish anymore with this fully moveable action figure made to look just like you!

Just send a picture of yourself, choose your desired skin tone and hair color and you’ll have a little mini-you in no time! These 30-cm (12-in) figures are designed to be approximately 1/6 of normal human scale. In addition to having a fully mobile body (perhaps more muscular and limber than your own), the bottoms of the feet have strong magnets to help the figure stay in your desired pose.

▼ No pose is impossible for this bendable figure!

Now, I have to say, there is something creepy about owning a naked figure of yourself, and the creators agree. That’s why they are offering a stylish suit set for an extra 6,000 yen (US$55). Mini-you might be better dressed than the real-you!

▼ So fashionable!

While it seems that the doll is only available in the male body, girls can probably get a figure made, as long as you don’t mind a more macho stature.

▼ This would undoubtedly provide hours of entertainment.

The standard price is 50,000 yen (US$460 ), but it’s on sale until November 3 for half-off, at 23,800 yen (US$220 ) per doll. At that price, you might as well get one for yourself and another one to give away to that special someone or your co-worker. Better yet, buy an action figure of yourself to give to your mother so you won’t have to visit home as often.
