\"OptimusIn one of my rss feeds I came across the papermodel of Optimus Prime<\/a> (yeah: nerd<\/em> I know..)
\nI am truly amazed at this papermodel: it’s almost as good as a action figure. It has joints that move freely and smoothly but the best of it all is: it transforms<\/strong> into a truck: this papermodel is a real transformer. <\/p>\n



\n\"blankPaperrobots1999.com<\/a> has 4 models with the same flexibility, but I want to focus on the blank robot<\/a> version.
\nI’ve written about my<\/strong> definition of urban-papercraft<\/a> and I was not sure if this model would fit my definition. <\/p>\n



\n\"KamiUntil I read the story about another model of Paperrobots1999.com<\/a>: the Kami Robo the Birdman<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

This model is based upon the works of Tomohiro Yasui<\/a>, who created over 200 of these papercraft wrestlers with there own name and a well-defined personality. And these wrestlers slug it out at kami-robo.com<\/a> so check that out.<\/p>\n



\nAnd so I started to realize that the blank robot is indeed a urban papercraft.
\nAnd for the inspiration you can check out the gallery of wrestlers made by Tomohiro Yasui.<\/p>\n

Here two of my favourites:<\/p>\n

Genie (King of evil)
<\/A>
\n Shark Hawk

And check out the rest of the wrestlers<\/A><\/p>\n
