Now here's a gadget that has taken on the status of an icon. And because there's nothing quite like seeing a unique 3D impression of your face, it's just the job to break the ice and get people talking. And the world-famous PinPressions system from PinArt is the hum-dinger of a gizmo to make it all possible. To make your mark in the world of impressionism, simply lift the device to your face - or another appropriate part of your anatomy - close your eyes and press gently. Then slowly remove and avoid tilting, to reveal a perfect 3D impression in glorious shiny metal. It's the 4500 individually controllable pins that do all the real work behind the perspex display panel. By sliding to match the contours of your face, they render not only a perfect profile, but a fully featured 3 dimensional mask of the original visage. Simply splendid. But is it life or is it art? At gadgetshop HQ, we can't quite decide. So we'll jolly well leave it up to you. Buy one and narcissistically model your own face, or buy multiple sets to create and display your own art. That's the beauty of PinPressions. It helps you unleash your creativity in the most downright classy and sexy way possible. Did I just say sexy? Goodness me. I think I need to sit down Suitable for all ages Always close your eyes when taking an impression of your face
