Would've made the job of swapping all the guns in E.T. with walkie-talkies a whole lot easier

You're going to have to -- that project looks pretty difficult to re-implement, and Microsoft Research isn't likely to give out source code or get it into a product quickly.

While they were demonstrating the limitations, I'd have been interested to see what would happen if they painted augmentations onto one of the copies of a duplicated feature - like Godzilla's right arm. Though I suppose it would just show up on the arm during one of the arm's two appearances as the model rotated.
