With a bit of effort (and access to the right hardware) it is possible to 3D print your own (for a reasonable price) using data derived from Google mapping - for example here (or alternatively with OS elevation data). Though that would still leave you having to overprint the details of relevant geographical features (if you wanted such).

Africa and Russia look pretty large by comparison.

Dymaxion is better, IMO. Look what that thing's done to Brazil!

Brazil looks like a Spitting Image puppet of Brazil.

Russia looks in bad shape...
