Send us a clear headshot photo.
We need to see the face clearly
like a passport photo, and you must tell us the eye colour.
Made to order, these individually crafted, slightly manga-esque dolls are set to become the keyring accessories of choice for narcissistic curio fans everywhere, as they depict – wait for it – you!
That’s right, simply send us a photo (and tell us eye colour) and Minimee’s team of skilled artists will get busy creating a comedy mini you. Think of them as 3D versions of those amusing caricatures you get at the seaside minus the sniggering onlookers.
If vanity is not your thing, Minimee Keychains make brilliantly unique pressies for friends and family. Simply pilfer a photo of the person you want immortalised in plastic and leave the rest to us. You can even send in a pic of a celeb. Just think, you could have Brucie in your pocket, Cheggars dangling from your phone and Posh in your purse. If you want.
Here's some we had made earlier...

"This is a good take on the personalised gift... they are surprisingly good and a little bit different." The Independent - Dec '09

I would not recommend your placing an order. My order was placed on 28th November last year. I have had two generalised emails replying to my enquiries but since January, my emails have simply been ignored. Be warned.Andrew, Kent - Mar '10
Firebox says: Andrew, please email us on info@firebox.com with your order details and we will try to resolve this for you.
Firebox please done ever stock these again! what a rip off. . I'm still waiting for my order 4months later, caricature works who make them do not answer any of my emails or phonecalls, I've since reported them to watchdog, trading standards and Paypal.
Firebox have been excellent though and caricature works should follow their example when it comes to dealing with customer complaints.Rachel Burgess, Halifax - Mar '10
Total rip off. The order came 3 months late and the final result did not match the order. The hair colour was not the same as on the photo or the order. Anonymous, LONDON - Mar '10
Firebox says: Please drop us an email to info@firebox.com with your order details and we will do our best to resolve this for you.
I bought one of these for my boyfriend to take when he goes away to work, I thought it seemed like a great idea. Unfortunately it was Godawful. I am pale with long curly dark drown hair but got an orange doll with a straight light brown bob. The face looked nothing like mine and was stuck on with a very visible transfer. For the price I paid from a website I was so fond of I was hugely disappointed, it went straight in the bin.Lizzi, Aberdeen - Jan '10
Firebox says: Hi Lizzi. Please contact us on info@firebox.com and we will try and resolve this for you. If you happened to take any pictures of the minimee please attach them to your email.
I purchased one of these and unfortunately the likeness is not as good as the examples provided. Would not recommend one of these for the expensive price tag. Would not even buy one if it was a quid. Very disappointed!John Windsor, Croydon - Jan '10
Firebox says: Please contact us at info@firebox.com and we will work to resolve the issue for you John.
Bought one of these for a friend for christmas and it went down brilliantly, it looked just like him, so many people have asked about them, when are you doing it again? i'd definitely order more.L Walker, Cheshire - Jan '10
Firebox says: Unfortunately we no longer stock the Minimee keychains. Glad you liked it though!
I bought one of these as a Christmas present for my girlfriend... it arrived in time for Christmas however I couldn't bring myself to wrap it and give it her as a present! It was rubbish. Not one person thought it looked like me, apart from the hair (which has since fallen off!). It brought a few laughs over Christmas when showed to family and friends, but was definately not worth the money (which also brought about a few laughs!).Asa, Lancashire - Jan '10
I too was very disappointed with this product. It looks very poor quality and was badly packaged, and it took over 6 weeks to arrive. It looks as though Firebox have realised the suppliers are less than perfect and have withdrawn this now - thank goodness! On the plus side, I've had excellent responses from Firebox Customer Services over the problems with this order, so well done to them for that.Kat, Oxfordshire - Jan '10
Ordered this on the 22nd of November, my only gripe is the delivery time, it came today which is pushing it a bit for Christmas, and was starting to get very nervous! But the result is perfect, i'm so pleased with the way it's turned out. I've bought it for my aunt as a christmas present as she hates the usual boring presents, so I thought this would be perfect for her. And honestly, I think this is totally original and she's going to absolutely love it!! Thank you firebox.Michael Coxon, Nottingham - Dec '09
I ordered one of these for my Dad way ahead of Xmas. Firebox emailed me on the 14th of Dec saying the company that made them couldn't meet the demand. Very disappointed and won't be ordering one of these again. Company that makes them have let so many people down.Jennifer, Millport, Scotland - Dec '09
