One goal has long evaded sex toy engineers: an exact replica of a human hootus. Not just any hootus, but yours, with all the contours and skin tone that the good Lord gave you rather than those unnaturally smooth and luridly pink options.

Plaster molds and other attempts take too long and often leave the customer limp with disappointment.

Now, thanks to 3D printing, the era of the perfectly cloned mini-you has arrived; finally, you can be in two places at once, as it were.

The New York Toy Collective, run by Murray Hillers Chelsea Downs, 28, and Laura Parker, 28, “searched for something like this in the market and couldn’t find [it

The pair teamed up with Openhouse Gallery, which has been running a 3-D printer pop-up shop on the first floor of the Eventi Hotel near Herald Square, to offer personalized sex toy making. The latest scanning sessions are being offered each Monday through Feb. 11.

They say they are aware that New Yorkers may be their target audience as if somehow New Yorkers are more degenerate than the rest of the world.

Wally, I can always count on you to come up with the strangest news in the world.

Makes me wonder what you read in your free time.

I'd make one at 7/8th scale so the wife is pleasantly surprised when I come home!

Now you could add a link to your hootus file to a dating site for the ladies with 3D printers. Viral marketing

Hmmm. I'll have mine done approximately 1/4 scale. That way the real McCoy will look like a #303 veggie can.
