Star Wars fans know that Han Solo ended up a wall decoration at Jabbas place after being frozen in carbonite. Jabba was clearly a sicko and liked to gaze upon frozen Han every day, while yanking slave girls around in chains. Anyway...for the fee of $99.95 ( yikes ) you will go to the Carbon-Freezing Chamber (near The American Idol Experience theater) and have your face scanned by several cameras. The images will then be used to create a three-dimensional digital version of your face. In about four weeks, a completed smaller-than-life-size figurine of yourself frozen in carbonite (measuring approximately 7 3/4" x 3" x 1") will be shipped directly to your home.
The experience will be open only on Star Wars Weekends event days, and reservations are required. You can make a reservation at 407-WDW-TECH (407-939-8324). You must provide a valid accepted credit card number at the time of booking, and a $25 cancellation fee will be charged to no-shows and those who cancel within 48 hours of their reservation.
This is NOT on my list of things to do anytime soon. Do I really need a small frozen me to put on my wall and look at? I think not, but I'm positive there are lots of fan boys out there who will go-dressed as Han Solo- and maybe even ask their girls to say "I love you" (ala Leia) so they can oh so cooly respond "I know". Then vanish to get their faces scanned.
