Print Your Skin At Minecon Thanks To Mattel & 57digital

If you’re going to MINECON you may be interested to know that toy-wizards Mattel are offering a supercool skin-printing service, so you can slap your game-face (and game-body, game-legs and game-arms) onto a nifty figurine!


It’s seriously cool. You craft the look of your unique figure by using an actual skin from the game. Mattel creates and prints a custom label based on your in-game skin (or one of the exclusive soon-to-be-revealed MINECON 2016 designs!), and then you stick it onto the figure. Just come to the Mattel booth at MINECON, purchase your Survival Mode Player One Figure ($15.00 + tax), print your label at the booth and you’ll have your very own mini-minecrafter, ready to create, explore and survive the sprawling landscape of your shelf or desk!



It’d be super nice if you could have a design ready before you hit the queue - it’d speed things along for everyone. <3

If you don’t want to use your in-game skin, you can print a custom skin you’ve designed yourself: Mattel have teamed up with app-making geniuses 57digital, who make the Mojang-approved Skin Studio, a powerful and slick skin editing tool for your phone. Just work up a design in the app, and Mattel will sort out the rest when you hit the front of the queue at MINECON. If you’re more of a pen and paper sort, you can also design a skin with 57digital’s Skin Scanner - print out a skin template, colour in the squares as you please and the app will scan it in and turn it into pixels.

​

Just make sure you keep your designs to the standard human body template. (Helmets and other overlay objects in the armour layer won’t print. Soz.)

Get pixel-pushin’!

Cheerio!
