The Kidd here...
Tell me that it wouldn't be cool as hell to be frozen in carbonite. I mean, without the dangers of being trapped in stasis for an indefinite amount of time or becoming part of Jabba the Hutt's wall decor, it really would make for an interesting and awesome piece of art to hang in your home.
Now it's entirely possible, not to mention cost-effective... and even better, you can freeze yourself in carbonite and be able to take the piece home with you.
As part of their Star Wars Weekends this year, starting May 18, Disney's Hollywood Studios at Disney World in Orlando, FL, you have the opportunity to be carbon frozen for the price of $99.95 plus shipping (in addition to your theme park admission).
The process is said to use state-of-the-art imaging technology to capture your face from a number of different angles for digital reconstruction in the form of a 7 3/4″ figurine that'll be shipped to you about four weeks later.
Reservations are needed, and you can get more info on how to take care of that over at the Disney Parks blog. It looks like you have until June 16 to get this done, and it is available at any time during the week, too, during that span, so, if you've always wanted to see yourself frozen in carbonite, this is your best chance of making that happen for yourself.
Who can get me into Disney World for a day? Because, in case you can't tell, I totally want this. Who wouldn't?
