Stunning Papercraft Transfomer Model was Inspired by Cookies

So began the truly amazing papercraft model of Transformer Bumblebee, built over four weeks and made entirely from KFC and Orion Custard packaging (hence the "custard pie"). Japanese maker Wonderdasher has detailed the whole process on his blog, complete with composite photos of himself in city streets, facing down the giant card mecha.

I’m idling at home for some days. Since the film show, I'm wondering to do something. Once in a shopping, I was attracted by egg-pie.

So began the truly amazing papercraft model of Transformer Bumblebee, built over four weeks and made entirely from KFC and Orion Custard packaging (hence the "custard pie"). Japanese Chinese maker Wonderdasher has detailed the whole process on his blog, complete with composite photos of himself in city streets, facing down the giant card mecha.

You should really go take a look. After seeing the intricacy of this model, I'm truly astonished.
