December 7, 2012 (WLS) -- This year, some people in Japan are getting a high-tech alternative to the family portrait: 3-D figurines of the family.
It all begins with a 3-D scanner shooting 15 minutes worth of images.
The end product, a figurine, does not come cheap. The small, 4-inch version cost about $250.
For now it's only available in Japan.
