Oh look, another totally plausible use of Augmented reality technology. Because girls are totally going to be down with printing out a piece of paper and holding it up to the camera so they can get a poorly-matched static photo or crude paper-vision 3d model of something three sizes too big for them.

this is heaven in boxed form.
