Size matters: Mini-Me figures of you now possible with 3D tech

Fancy an action figure of you? Well, your own Mini-Me statue can now be yours, thanks to 3D printing of selfies that can produce detailed figurines.

A black and white photo of my paternal grandparents at their wedding, a teenage man with a stern expression and a diminutive 12-year-old gazing solemnly at the camera, adorns the living room wall of my family home. Next to that stands a colour photo of my parents in their wedding livery, a man in his 20s and an 18-year-old woman smiling broadly, their traditional red and white clothes a stark contrast against the dark studio curtain behind them.
