The Bitterwallet Christmas Box: Gift 1 – your own face

The Bitterwallet Christmas Box: Gift 1 – your own face:
If we learned anything at all from the film Face/Off, it’s that swapping your face with someone else can lead to a shitload of confusion and a triple dose of mayhem. But swapping your face with… your own face? Hmm… it might just work you know.

That’s what Japanese firm REAL-f are hoping anyway. They’ll create a chillingly realistic 3D copy of your face and make it into a mask, all for only $3,920. If you want your entire head, it’s $5,875.

It might seem weird now, but trust us, we’ll all be doing this in about three years time. Or something.
