Today in “Sure, why not,” Groupon is offering – what else – a deal of a lifetime that lets you 3D print a life-size replica of yourself for only $30,000. And it’s being offered as Mother’s Day special.
In collaboration with Alabama-based 3D-printing company SWIGRO, the deal includes travel to the headquarters to create your body’s blueprint and framework, and free shipping within the United States. It won’t likely arrive in time for actual Mother’s Day (this Sunday, May 8) but if you’re seriously considering getting this as a gift for the lady who raised you, we’re guessing it doesn’t matter when mom’s day is.
Groupon suggests that you or your mom can take the 3D clone to do the following activities:
- Savasana (corpse) yoga poses
- Blink-free family photos
- Couples massages
- Tandem skydiving
- Trapeze classes
- Tubing down a lazy river
