Jake’s logic seems to be thus:  once upon a time we had a thing which we understood called websites.  Then something new came along called Facebook.  Facebook was really different and we needed to find a way to understand it so we decided the best way to do this was to try and turn it into the thing we understood.

    We’re so, so close though: some major hurdles to continue to wrangle include coloured plastics available for the SLS printing we’re using, and how to make the finish dirtproof. But the doll stood, and balanced, on one foot today. There’s not many dolls out there that can claim that: we’ve made anaction doll ;-)

    Can’t wait to see the result.
