2019 update: Epson's 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics papercraft minisite is long gone of course... The new link that I provided is is a 'capture' of the website by the Wayback Machine of The Internet Archive. Some of the download links still work, but not all of them sadly...
The Wayback Machine has crawled this website many times though, so be sure to try different captures to see if you have more luck downloading the papercraft you want from another date! And don't forget: always save a papercraft you like when you see it, even if it might be more than 10 years before you decide to build it. 😉

Surging the internet i've seen the beautiful templates of the 2008 Epson olympic papercrafts. I aso have reed that there are two series of that. But what i do or surge, i cant find where i can download the two olympc papercraft series.
Is there anyone who can or wl help me to get this two beautyfull Epson papercraft series?
With regards from John Statue from the Netherlands.
Now in Dutch.,
Hallo allemaal,
Ik ben nogal een fanatieke verzamelaar, maar vooral bouwer van papieren bouwplaten (zg papercrafts). Nu ik met pensioen ben heb ik er nog meer tijd voor.
Nu zag ik dat Epson twee series van olympische papercrafts heeft uitgebracht (2008).
Ik kom ze regelmatig tegen op het net. Maar als ik ze aanklik kom ik wel op de Epson site maar kan ze dan niet vinden.
Wie o wie kan mij helpen om aan deze twee series olympische papercrafts van Epson te komen, of aangeven waar ik ze kan downloaden. Enkele berichten aan Epson heeft tot op heden nog geen resultaat opgeleverd. Eventueel graag een bericht via e-mail.

Hi John! The papercrafts from the post are still available, they've just been moved to a different page somewhere over the years: http://www1.epson.com.hk/campaign/minisite/papercraft/olympic.htm
DeleteAnd I'm not 100% sure if it's what you mean, but I think it included the first ones that you can see here: https://web.archive.org/web/20080421054905/http://www.epson.com.hk:80/files/minisite/papercraft/olympic.htm (the download links there don't work anymore, but you can see they're on the new page with the newer ones as well)
Have fun building!
Dear, i post my question now 4 months ago. I just see now the answer. Thank you very very much that you reply at my post. I am very happy with it. Now i can start building the olympic sports papercraft. Yours sincerely John Statue from the Netherlands (Holland)
DeleteSee my website www.john-statue-pictures.com ans see in the gallery "my papercraft models"
DeleteAnd many more free downloads of the Citroën HI
I had to go to https://www.john-statue-pictures.nl/ (instead of .com) but when I checked out your Galerij I could see that you weren't kidding when you said you are a papercraft enthusiast...! ;o)
DeleteThat's a *huge* gallery with papercraft pictures you built, and a *huge* list with free Citroën HY papercrafts as well! And even a section with papercraft building tips! It's great to see people sharing their papercraft enthusiasm, I hope lots of people will enjoy your builds and get excited to try it out themselves!
Thanks for sharing and have fun!
Thank you very much. I found all Olympic papercrafts.

DeleteHi Ninjatoes,
ReplyDeletedo you know how else can I get the taewondo model in those models? the link in your comment doesn't work anymore.
I think Epson finally shut down the 2008 Beijng Olympics papercraft minisite... ;o) I updated the link with an archived link from the Wayback Machine:

The taekwondo download link still seems to work, but not all of them will sadly... :o( But the site has been 'crawled' by the Wayback Machine many times, so you could try if other captures will have different working links? If you like them, save them now, even if it might be 10 years before you decide to build them! ;o)
Oh my goodness, the link really still work. I saw the link you posted in the comment above, but didn't think it works. Thank you so much, it means a lot to me.
