I think the closest thing I've seen to a customizable doll/figurine is called a ball joint doll. You basically choose the body from many types, the head, the eyes, the hair, you can paint the skin, add eyelashes, and choose from a plethora of clothing... sound familiar? There are several companies that make these. One of the big ones is called Volks. Making a complete doll can get very expensive.

Thanks. When the revolution comes, you'll all be spared.

I think they're talking about an actual physical figurine in the real world. Like Barbie or G I Joe.


Or in his case, a Bobble-Head.

My HAV unit design isn't even in the same science fiction sub-category as Star Trek...Isaac Asimov is the brains behind my concept...Gene Roddenberry created Star Trek...vastly different minds. But hey...the Trekkies would love me...wouldn't they?

I get a sophisticated bobble head? Woo Hoo! Thanks.

I'd love a 3-D version of my av if I could have sex with him. I think he's very hot.

He'd be 4D in your case

I have some of the smaller scale ones, and I've always thought they look like SL avatars....one even looks like a stick insect version of Alyx.... :D You can get a gazillion accessories too, like glasses and shoes (Brenda? ;) ) and stuff. And different wigs. JUST like SL.

I'm starting up a new business in SL. I'll make a life-like 3-D model of your avatar. My initial medium will be butter, but I'm not opposed to working in margarine, crisco, lard, or other fat and dairy based mediums.

Here's some of my early work. See if you recognize this avatar:

I'm also willing to work in tin foil. Here's a forum regular having fun on a swing:

If Teeny is ever replicated as a RL 3D statue, it will be the biggest, most wasteful sculpture ever. I would need a few hundred thousand laborers, all of America's nuclear arsenal and the dwarf planet Ceres. The end result would be a 1400 mile tall statue, striking a commanding pose, pointing into space. The statue would be orientated so that my pointing right arm is always pointing at Earth. My statue will wear pants, to ensure that Space Perverts don't flock to it for upskirt shots. At the base of the statue there will be an inscription. The inscription will read "Fear and Envy Me".

The statue will always be staffed by a crew of 250,000 workers, security and their families. The crew will live inside the base of the statue. Unused nukes (from construction) will be stored inside the torso, and my extended index finger will contain four missile launch tubes. At a moment's notice, the hand can be readied to fire nuclear missiles to defend the statue.

The statue will be equipped with twin plasma beam cannons, one in each eye. The cannons will be used to deflect large objects which could potentially collide with Earth or the statue. They will also be used to pinpoint and destroy anyone who pisses me off. On special occasions, the cannons will be used to put on plasma cannon light shows which will be visible from anywhere in the solar system.

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

Are you mocking me? You wanna get the plasma cannons first?
