What is a MiniME?
MiniME by MiniMeWonder is a custom figurine made from your photo, 3D-printed in full-colour resin. You see a free preview before you pay, and you order on Etsy.
MiniMeWonder is based in Eindhoven, Netherlands, and sells through its Etsy shop.
- 1 Figure: you, your favourite person or your pet, from a single photo. Add their pet with the Single + Pet option.
- 2 Figures: the two of you from your favourite photo together, side by side. Add your pet with the Couple + Pet option.
- Pet keychain: your dog, cat or any other pet as a keychain, with their own markings.
What is it made of?
Full-colour resin. Every piece is made to order: printed in full-colour resin by our production partner, one piece at a time.
- Display indoors, out of prolonged direct sunlight
- Clean gently with a soft dry cloth
- A decorative collectible, not a toy
As a cake topper: it's solid resin. We recommend 8 cm or 10 cm for cake toppers, and a small food-safe barrier under the base.
What sizes are there?
1 Figure and 2 Figures at 6, 8 and 10 cm; pet keychains at 3, 4 and 5 cm. The medium is most popular in both.
- 1 Figure: 6 cm · 8 cm · 10 cm
- 2 Figures: 6 cm · 8 cm · 10 cm
- Pet keychain: 3 cm · 4 cm · 5 cm
For the 1 Figure, 8 cm is the smallest size that keeps fine facial detail.
How much does a MiniME cost?
The preview is free, and no card is needed. If you order, on Etsy: 1 Figure from €42.93, 2 Figures from €60.27 and a pet keychain from €30.63, VAT included. Tracked shipping is free.
How does the free preview work?
Send a photo and your email, and we'll send you a preview of your future MiniME. It appears on your screen in under a minute, and we email you a copy.
You don't need a card and you don't have to order. Nothing is printed until you've seen and approved a 3D preview of your piece.
What photo do I need?
One clear, front-facing photo is enough. Extra angles help us catch more detail in the hair and outfit.
- Clear, well-lit photos
- A front-facing view of the face
- A full-body photo if you want a specific outfit or pose
- Extra angles help us catch more detail
- Avoid: Dark, blurry or heavily filtered photos
For a pet: one clear photo where you can see their face and markings. A normal phone photo is plenty.
For two people: ideally one photo with both faces clear. If you only have separate photos, send both and we'll compose the pose.

How long does it take?
Your preview appears on screen in under a minute, with a copy by email. Once you order, we make your piece in 6 business days, then tracked shipping takes 10 to 16 days, with duties and import taxes already paid.
- Free preview: on screen in under a minute
- Production after approval: 6 business days
- Shipping: 10–16 days
- Free tracked shipping worldwide
Need it faster? Message us about rush processing.
Do I pay customs or import duties?
No. Duties and import taxes on your order are already paid, so there is nothing to pay on delivery.
Etsy shows where our print partner ships from, and for EU addresses it can add a general customs notice.
What about returns?
Every piece is made to order from your photo, which is why you approve it first: nothing is printed until you've seen and approved a 3D preview of your piece.
Orders are placed on Etsy, in our MiniMeWonder shop. Questions? Email contact@minimewonder.pt or message us on Etsy, and a human replies.
What happens to my photos?
We use your photo to make your preview (and your figurine, if you order), and nothing else. If you don't order, it's deleted after 30 days.
- Never sold and never shared with advertisers. The AI services that help us don't use it for training, under their API terms.
- Deleted 30 days after you send it if you don't order. Ask us any time and we'll delete it sooner.
- Shown publicly only if you tell us we may.
Can I ask for changes to my preview?
Yes. Reply to your preview email if you want anything changed, and we'll adjust it together. You approve again before anything is printed.
