Papercraft Car: 1972 AMC Gremlin
This papercraft car is a promotional item produced by the now defunct American Motor Company to introduce their 1972 Gremlin automobile. A line of text on the template proclaims, "Cut out and build a Gremlin, then come in and we will put you in the real thing." The white boxes on the sides of the car are where the car dealer's contact information was to be printed. A scan of the template for the Gremlin is located here.

Marvel Comics Paper Toys: Female Superheroes
Black Star Toy has a paper toy assortment of some of my favorite female characters from Marvel Comics. From left to right are Mystique. Psylocke, and the Scarlet Witch. Each of the characters has played a significant role in the X-Men titles, with the Scarlet Witch being a member of the Avengers as well. Black Star Toy also features paper toys of celebrities done in a similar style.

Edward Scissorhands Paper Dolls
I think this paper doll thing is growing on me. ^^ These paper dolls were created in 2011 to commemorate the twentieth anniversary of Tim Burton's movie, Edward Scissorhands. If you look closely you will recognize all sorts of props and characters from the movie. This art is the work of illustrator Rozenn Bothuon and may be downloaded here.

Lord of the Rings Papercraft: Elf Helmet
There seems to be an abundance of Fantasy themed paper model helmets around these days. Here is another one to add to the tally. This LOTR Elf helmet by Movieman has a unique open design. From its looks, I assume that this papercraft is based on a 3D model from one of the many of the Lord of the Rings video games. The Pepakura PDO template for the helmet may be downloaded here.

8-Bit Video Game Character Pop-Ups
The Cubeecraft website now has a side project of pop-ups called "Pixel Pages". As you might expect from the title, these pop-ups primarily feature classic 8-bit video game characters, however other pop culture characters in pixelated form are available too. Pictured above are Link from Legend of Zelda, Disney's Scrooge McDuck, Gizmo from Gremlins, and Mega Man. Templates for all 32+ characters may be downloaded here.

Retro UFO Papercraft
I like the retro styling of this little papercraft UFO. The finished model measures only three inches (7.6 cm) across. Created by Sirrob01, the flying saucer was originally intended for use in miniature gaming. The PDF template for the model may be downloaded here. Sirrob says the guns are the hardest part of the build followed by the clear canopy.

Half-Life Papercraft: Frag Grenade
For those of you who were hoping for more Half-Life papercraft, here is a little something until I can put together something more elaborate. This is a paper model of the Mk2 grenade that appears in the Half-Life 1 video game (as you might gather from the delightfully pixelated textures ^^). At only four parts, it is a simple build. The PDF template for the grenade may be downloaded here.
Other Papercraft Grenades:
Halo 3 Frag Grenade
Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch
Half-Life Snark (trust me, its a grenade)
