Japan’s Cardboard Craftsman

He Made His Own Sci-Fi World Out of Cardboard
Meet Yamaguchi, a man from Zushi, Japan, who makes fully articulated and incredibly impressive blades and guns out of cardboard.
He goes by @nami_aidakko on TikTok and YouTube where he shows off his creations, as well as taking to the streets to impress, and perhaps briefly intimidate, children and adults alike with his realistic inventions and unique costume: a schoolgirl uniform complete with cardboard head, cardboard hair, cardboard headphones and cardboard cat ears.

Now you can build a papercraft version of your own. Reddit user dreamparacite hopes you'll give it a try. He's even uploaded the 100 MB PDF plans to encourage everyone. This one was so intricate that it took him 9 months to do it.
