Japanese papercraft designer Dotubo (Crazy Craft) has been working on this paper model that mimics the versatility and poseability of action figures (Revoltech, Figma, etc.). The jointed skeleton frame makes various poses possible and at the same time serves as a base for creating custom/different characters.
The good thing about this papercraft is that you can do a variety of different poses and it allows you to "dress up" your character, specially if you plan on glass shelving it. The head, chest, back, arms, legs, and feet are interchangeable - you can make it look like a male, female, or robot character.
On the other side, the initial assembly will take longer to assemble (compared to static paper figures) and would need a little bit of skill to complete, but once you've built the skeleton frame, the sky is the limit.
What do you think, are we heading towards the right direction?
