FigurePrints makes your World of Warcraft character a reality

FigurePrints-model-top.jpg

There was a time when I spent more hours logged in as my brazen, orange-bearded gun-nut of a dwarven hunter on World of Warcraft (a bit like the guy above, minus the wussy bow) than I did walking around the lands of the living. FigurePrints would allow me to remember those days in style, coupling three dimensional color printing techniques with Blizzard's Armory, a website by the game developer which keeps track of everything about a player's character from their talents to what armor they have equipped.

You'll have the option to customize your avatar before you print, like what pose your character is set in — modeled after in-game emotes and actions such as waving and shield bashing — and the base the model's on, as well as decorative choices such as what weapons to equip or if your helm or guild tabard is displayed.

The model plus shipping to anywhere in the US or Canada will set you back about $115. Check out the gallery below for examples of other characters after printing.
