Oct. 18th, 2002 12:21 pmYou, yes, YOU can now order your very own Fandom Action Figure!
Sort of.
Neiman Marcus (a luxe retailer here in the US) always has creative gifts in their Xmas Catalog, and in this year's, in addition to the Warhols and the Cadillac and the London taxi, you can order a pair of action figures for only $7,500, plus tax.
Accessing technology at the world's leading maker of action figures, the adventure starts with a full-body three-dimensional digital scan of each of you. Don't worry; it doesn't hurt. You'll be undergoing the same process that hundreds of stars have completed to create movie and sports action figures, at Gentle Giant Studios in California. With the digital imagery captured at the sessions, a team of figure artisans will spring into action molding, casting, sculpting, and painting.
Shazaam! Amazing, lifelike 6" posable action figures of you are created in polyurethane. This adventure package is priced per person, so you can fight crime as a couple, send your spouse into action solo, even become the first action figure family on your block.
: giggles madly at the thought of what various fandom members would do with their fanfic-inspired action figures
