Electrobinoculars of some sort or another have appeared in every Star Wars movie except for Episode VI. According to Starwars.com, electrobinoculars are:"...handheld imaging devices used to view objects from a considerable distance. The sophisticated device displays images with an overlay of computerized information detailing the object's distance, relative and true azimuths, and elevation."
These 1:1 scale papercraft electrobinoculars are based on a 3D model from the Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy video game. The template for this paper model may be downloaded here. This is my second Star Wars papercraft, look for more in the future. :)
Designer and animator Eduardo Souzacampus has created a delightful series of simple paper toys which he calls "Tubeland". Each of the toys is assembled by rolling a single piece of paper into a tube, then gluing it in place. Pictured above are the paper toys representing Darth Vader, Carmen Miranda, and Nintendo's Mario. A wide range of pop culture characters are available including historical figures (Da Vinci, Mozart, etc), cartoon characters (Betty Boop, Flintstones, etc), and soccer players (Pele, Ronaldo Fenomeno). One of my personal favs is the Heath Ledger Joker paper toy. All 24 of the Tubeland paper toys may be downloaded here.
