Vending Vending Machine produces a perfectly detailed miniature replica of itself.
Simply choose one of the three sizes, small, smaller or smallest; insert payment and watch the blur of movement as the rapid action 5 axis CNC machine creates your replica from an aluminium block in a few seconds then

Cheaper version dispenses premade coloured plastic replicas.

A protozoa hunts and eats. What would a killer vending machine eat? |

Oh actually, that argument makes it quite likely
that the galaxy is teeming with murderous hive-
