When there’s paper toys, that gotta get made … Who ya gonna call? Cubeecraft! Now available for download are Peter Venkman (Bill Murray), Egon Spengler (Harold Ramis), Ray Stantz (Dan Ackroyd) and Winston Zeddemore (Ernie Hudson). I LOVED this movie when I was young and taught myself how to draw the Ghostbusters logo so I could plaster it all over my school books. Grab the Ghostbusters Cubeecraft series here, including the older Mr Stay Puft model from a while back.
Many readers of Toy Tragic have been commenting on the Cubeecraft paper craft toys that we’ve featured. They’re an awesome way to spend a night in and to add some cool character toys to your collection. Since I talk a lot about Mighty Muggs here as well, I though I’d highlight all of the Cubees that you can make that also have Mighty Mugg equivalents:
I’ve got some ideas for other ones which would be cool -Palpatine? Boba Fett? C3-PO and R2-D2? The possibilities are endless! 
Exclusive to Toy Tragic, download The Phantom, Ghost Who Walks in his Cubeecraft form. Available in the Downloads section of Toy Tragic. Based on the original Cubeecraft template by Chris Beaumont. I’m pretty happy with how he turned out, considering I’m not really a “comic artist”. Thinking about what other ones I could do in the future …
One of my earlier posts introduced you to Cubeecraft – downloadable paper models that you print out, cut out, and fold together. I’ve had many responses from readers on how cool they though they were, which is great to hear. Over the past couple of nights I’ve made some new ones – Master Chief, Aztec Nerga (complete with with Oscar Award), Gir and Superman. Later on (maybe tonight … we’ll see) I’m going to make a Dana Scully (for my Fox Mulder), Dr Zoidberg and a Marshall Alexander exclusive called The Rubee Project (Rubiks Cube robot!).
Not all toys or collectibles come in boxes and are characterised by as mint or near-mint. For some toys the act (or art) of construction is what it’s really all about. For about the last year I have been looking at Cubeecraft paper toys and wanting to find some time to start making some. They’re cool characters, many from particular genres I know and love, look great and are relatively easy to start building. It wasn’t though until Christmas 2008 when I made my first one, and I haven’t really stopped since (Note: most collectors have some form of an addictive nature – it goes with the territory!). (more…)
