Your face on a bot

We’ll file this one under “creepy yet amusing”. You can now order a MechRC robot with a 3d replica of your own head mounted to it. The site thatsmyface.com is offering this as a product. Simply take some pictures of your face upload them and mark some options. They’ll send you your robotic replica, ready to go. As they point out at botjunkie, they’ll put any face on there that you have some decent pictures of. That’s even creepier.

    I was thinking about sending in some Hitler pics and recreating the final scene from Wolfenstein3D. I’ve seen 12″ GI Joe-type figures that look remarkably like BJ, so it would work out great!
    :-D

    I fail to see how they’re in business. $150 is neat to have your own action figure, but $2000 for a “lifesize” cup made to look like my head? Rediculous.

    That, in a nutshell, is why this is so creepy.

    i love watching GI Joe, both the cartoon series and the movie. I am hoping that they would make a sequel. `
