Check out the adorable Pikachu papercraft that comes with Super Pokémon Rumble for the 3DS! Not only that, but the game also comes with a collection of AR Markers for Pokédex 3D (protip: we have them all HERE), and codes to unlock four special toy Pokémon in the game.

Keep in mind this is for the Japanese version of the game and these extra goodies will only be offered through select shops. Check Pokémon Co.’s notice page for more info.

X-Ray Origami.

Artist Takayuki Hori created a collection of origami entitled Oritsunagumono, which means Things Folded and Connected. He printed out translucent sheets with animal skeletons and discarded human objects. When assembled, the origami comes to life and tells the story of nature’s fight for survival against a polluted ecosystem.

Way more depressing than papercraft of video game characters, but still pretty damn cool.

This papercraft Figma is mind-blowing. This is a papercraft version of the Figma of Aegis from the game Persona 3 by Plus Kareha. It’s made completely out of paper except for a few bits of ribbon and chain for added detail. And just like real Figmas, this one can be attached to a stand and even has removable accessories. Crazy sauce.

Check out this pic of the actual Aegis Figma for comparison.

Stubby The Papercraft Pencil.

Designed by Matt Hawkins, this easy-to-build papercraft pencil is available to download as Matt’s Free Papertoy of the Month.

Some pencils can just draw, others not so much. I’m not sure how this happens but it does and when you find a pencil that can draw you keep it around. A friend, a collaborator and trusted creative partner. But there is only so much lead a pencil has to give and after many hard fought creative battles it’s left short, used up, stubby. So this papertoy “Stubby” is a tribute to those great pencils past, present and future who so proudly sacrifice there graphite soul in service to the higher creative calling! This is a pretty simple one to build for you who like the easy ones. Hope you enjoy it.
