Mini me

Immortalise your loved ones as a customised bobblehead. Creators work from a photo to create eerily accurate likenesses. Design them from top-to-toe or put their head on a superhero body, a ripped strongman or maybe a mermaid.

How much: From $80. Orders take two to four weeks.

For a gift that’s truly out of this world, snap up a piece of intergalactic real estate – say a few acres on the moon, or a chunk of land on Mars?

Twenty years ago US man Dennis M Hope made a land claim for the moon and the eight planets in our solar system and since then has sold more than 12 million extraterrestrial land lots.

Get it here: Lunarembassy.com

How much: One acre lots are $19.99 (US). Recipients receive a deed, planetary map marking their land, a constitution and bill of rights for their planet.

How much: from $55.
