I like the side view--you don't see it as well on this (magazine) view--this robot is seriously Strutting! The model as a whole has the appearance of an animated cartoon frame!

Matt, this is (and I'm repeating myself) awesome.
I'm giving you 5 stars!

The robot is paper the figure is Sculpey. They liked my custom Obama action figure piece, so we riffed on that to create this. It's over 2 feet tall. I had to use a printer that does 12 x 18 (I had to print it at work) These one offs don't have tabs and fold lines to save time I just do it by hand as I build. The "Rupert" figure was so heavy I had to glue the feet of the robot to a large piece of illustration board.

Damn Matt, another big one. Don't tell me we can't have it like the Obama in the White House combo. Is it a combo of vinyl and paper? Then again your on a roll, keep it goin'.
