Product Description

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.

Customer Reviews

It's art really, not a toy
It seems that everyone wants one of these - for a few minutes! My daughter was given one years ago and my son recently said he wanted one as she rarely let him play with it in case he broke it!

He plys with it perioically, and it's fun to leave an impression on it and then leave it, like a piece of art for a while and then change it again.

This particular make is a little delicate, as the feet are prone to being broken off, but if it's treated more like an art piece than a toy it's fine.

Health And Saftey Comes Into Mind When Mentioning This!
When I first got one of these I was excited as I herd there was a big "fad" about "O my, my face will look so cool if I put it into it" (joke!) well the truth is I felt like that myself when I got this.

So you are now wondering why such a hennas title, the fact is when I got this (1 year ago) it was great but the fact is the little pins over time become weak and feeble (at the point you would of lost interest).

Pin art
I was impressed with the company who responded positively and without fuss when the article was damaged in delivery.
When dealing with a company at a distance there is always a concern over this sort of event happening - well done the company.
