There are dozens of gifts you could buy for Father’s Day, but one of the simplest ways to make the dad in your life feel special is by creating a custom LEGO Minifigure in his likeness. LEGO offers this service through its online Minifigure Factory where, in a matter of minutes, you can transform your dad (or anyone else) into a 1.5-inch LEGO icon with almost any style of hair and facial expression. Of course, dads who like building with LEGO or have a tradition of building with their kids will be especially appreciative. But you don’t have to be a LEGO-head to get a kick out of unwrapping your own personalized minifig.
