For those of you who cannot get enough of your Xbox Live representation of yourself via your XBL avatar, Microsoft has made it possible for you to never have to lose sight of your little mini me.

Available for purchase is an avatar Fathead.  Fathead is a popular poster brand that focuses on making otherwise boring wall posters come to life and appear to pop off your wall.   Fathead sells numerous sports atheletes and other wall decals including video game themed Fatheads from Halo and more.  Now your avatar can add their name to that list.  An avatar Fathead that you can pose in various positions will set you back $79.99 – $149.99 depending on the size you choose.

Also available is a 3D FigurePrint model replica.  These miniature model replicas will cost you $49.95 plus shipping.  The replicas can all be posed in various predetermined positions.

Lastly you can bring your avatar to a Zune.  Pick which Zune you would like to purchase and choose between the 10 avatar poses and your avatar will be etched onto the back of your Zune.  Prices range from $169.99 – $349.99 depending on the HD space you pick.

Clever idea? Probably not, but have to see how it plays out.

Will I buy it? Absolutely not. lol

If my bandit mask stays on my avatar, I'd get a 3D model for sure. And if I could have my Claptrap with me, +10000 awesomeness.

I tried to do it but they aren't allowed to licence my pink t-shirt for some reason. In place of it they use some default blue t-shirt. If my avatar isn't COMPLETELY pink there's no point. But I would love to get a little statuette. The price is pretty cheap for a custom made object.

Would be cool, but they use hardly anything my avatar wears.

Didn't even get my hair right under my bandit mask. lol

Lol PK or should I say Siren....

I think the model replicas would make good gifts for friends. However the Fatheads and Zune thing.....a waste!
