When I was a kid I enjoyed making things out of paper as much as the next kid. Sure, for the most part it was paper airplanes that didn’t go more than three feet, but I was having fun. After a few years I even dove into origami, the ancient art of folding paper to make things. After a few frogs and swans I was bored again.

I never thought that you could make your very own Mario out of paper though! Thanks to the folks over at GotOrion.com though now you can. They have a large selection of Nintendo characters that you can choose from. All you need to do is print them out, cut them out then put them together. Sounds simple enough right? Well, not exactly.

After spending two hours trying to cut out the first sheet of my Mario paper doll here, I got bored with it. Well, I got bored and the scissors started to hurt my thumb. This will not be a quick project, I can promise you that. Sure, I plan on going back and trying to finish it, but it is a lot harder than you might think it would be.

Some of them get a little silly as well. Does anybody really want to make a paper version of Mario wearing a bunny suit? I do not think so. Give it a shot though and let me know if you get all the way through creating any of these paper models. You can get twenty-one of them at the GotOrion.com Web site.
