It is very unlikely that you will become a real life superhero unless you have access to a lot of radiation or mystical stones. The easiest way to achieve your heroic ambitions is through a collector-grade six-inch figure with a custom 3D printed version of your own face.

Five super fans were given the chance to create an action figure based on their own likenesses, a few years ago, as part of a contest run by the two companies. The limitations in 3D printing and digital scanning made it hard for fans to get a chance to turn themselves into a figure, but now that the technology has improved, anyone can get a chance to be a part of the series.

Fans will be able to base their action figure on classic to current characters seen across popular films, television series and comic books with the help of the mobile app. Some of the designs will be inspired by Star Wars characters. You won't be able to slap your face on Princess Leia's body, or get a green face lift to become Yoda, but a provided press release did mention an X-Wing pilot, so you can probably imagine what other generic bodies could be used.

The dolls will not be available in the United States until later in the fall. When it comes to how long it will take for a custom figure to be created and shipped out after a digital face Scan is completed and submitted, the company hasn't given any details.
