    Need a head shrinker

    No, not the "tell me about your mother" kind, although that wouldn't hurt.

    I have an item I'd like shrunk. I'd like to do a limited run of heads for it.

    I'll pay for all supplies, I'll pay for your time. In return I'd like the item back, 12 castings of the head and the molds.

    If the head castings is a problem, I'll just take the molds and the item.

    I have no idea if this appeals to anybody but I thought I would try my own back yard.

    Timing is eight weeks from approval.

    PM with costs and let us discuss.

    Maybe you want to talk to the guy in Germany:

I'm quite happy with the results. Below comparision pics of a regular Starbuck figure of the left and one with a reduced head on the right. I did Apollo and

      Another option could be scanning.
      We have 3d scanned some Mego things and enlarged them as we print em out.
      If we could simply get the printer to print high res...but a fix is on order and is giving us high hopes.
      Course, we could supply you the 3d file and you could have someone like shapeways.com print it out.

        Been taken care of on this round but I may be in touch for the future. I have kind of a weird one on the table.
