Cute Metal Gear Rex papercraft toy


Maybe even more iconic for the Metal Gear Solid series than Snake himself, is Metal Gear Rex! ;o)

At a game convention 2003, to promote the upcoming Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater video game, they would hand out a really cool and pretty detailed Metal Gear Rex papercraft! (I imagine they ran out pretty quickly...)

...but what were those brown pieces for on the sheets?? They were actually for building a second, "classified mech for MGS3"! ;o) (which turned out to be Shagohod)

The papercraft Metal Gear Rex and the "classified mech" Shagohod
you could build with the promotional kit from the convention ;o)
But back then of course, the fans didn't know what the new mech looked like yet, so there no instructions were included, to keep it a secret; if you wanted to know, you had to build it (even if Shagohod was changed a bit in the final game ;o)

Now this simpler version from Cubefold doesn't have a "secret Shagohod" (it just made me remember the story ;o) but it looks a lot cuter! (well you know, taking into account that in the ned it's still a machine of war of course...)

Papercraft Gaststätte "Zur Siegfähre"


The papercrafts from the Kallboys all have a Mondorf or Rhine theme about them, and so does this of the Gaststätte "Zur Siegfähre", an inn located where the river Sieg flows into the Rhine.

Papercraft picnic


I don't what it is, but does building papercrafts make you hungry too??
But seriously, I never imagined having to say this, but: don't eat the papercrafts...!!

Papercraft "Sound! Euphonium" school girl Kumiko Oumae



We already knew that some anime series are about school girls that go mountaineering; well, "Sound! Euphonium" is about girls that are in a school band. ;o)

Papercraft Pokémon Mega-Pidgeot


The last flying Mega-Pokémon Javierini made was quite a prehistoric one, this Mega-Pidgeot is a bit closer to home. (as much as that's it's possible of course, it's still a Pokémon ;o)

Papercraft "Encouragement of Climb" Kokona-chan v3


One thing about Japanese manga is a given: whether it's about about fantasy and dragons, giant robots, battleships and tanks, or mountaineering, there will be schoolgirls in it made to look as cute as possible in different outfits...

Papercraft riding mower


If you have a *really big* lawn, you might want to think about getting a riding mower? This tiny paper one is just for fun though (well let's face it, the big ones are really just for fun too... ;o)

1:60 version papercraft CH 801 amphibious plane


If you liked the 1:33 scale CH 801 Zenith amphibious plane that Stahlhart made, but found it a little bit intimidating, you can try the bit simpler 1:60 version now! ;o)

Poseable Netroid Shovel Knight papercraft toy


This papercraft Shovel Knight is more simplified compared to the one from SuperRetroBro (but less than the one from Cubeecraft ;o) and like all papercraft Netroid toys, this one is poseable!

Papercraft "Encouragement of Climb" Kokona-chan v2


That's right: after the first cute papercraft of Kokona-chan from "Encouragement of Climb" (no I'm not having a stroke, it's the English name of a manga series) here's a second already, in a different outfit!

Papercraft Marvel Daredevil


Every year, PaperPokés have a little April Fool's prank, where they pretend not to make Pokémon papercraft anymore...

But really, you get the last laugh, because they make a totally different papercraft that day for the occasion, and this year they were "Marvel Papercraft" - making a papercraft Daredevil! ;o)

Papercraft Pokémon Mega-Aerodactyl


Cartoon dinosaurs looks really cute - especially when they're Pokémon! ;o)

Papercraft spider collection


Of course Ravensblight is known for making scary papercrafts , but I think this spider collection is the first that some people might actually be too scared to build (even if the spiders themselves are just 2D... ;o)
