LINCOLN, England, Jan. 7 (UPI) -- A UK Etsy shop has begun selling 3D printed Lego pieces made to resemble life-like human heads.

By combining two photos, English Etsy shop funky3Dfaces offers buyers the opportunity to recreate themselves and their loved ones as Lego pieces.

"We convert two photographs into 3D - then using sophisticated full-color 3D printers, we create eerily life-like 15mm high heads," the shop's item description page states.

The heads are sold individually for $29.96 and feature a 5mm wide hole on the bottom allowing them to fit on to any standard Lego body.

After placing an order, buyers are sent guidelines for taking and uploading their photos for use. Once the photos are received, the pieces take up to four weeks to manufacture.

The site also offers custom magnets and a wedding cake topper including Lego mini figures in addition to the custom heads.
