Cutzilla

Cutzilla is a cute kaiju who just loves to make friends! Their inquisitive and helpful nature makes this docile dino the perfect desktop companion for anyone. Don’t let them near anything too important though, as they’re also chronically clumsy!

Ten years on from the release of the classic Cutzilla paper toy, Luke Glood has returned to the design, to revisit their classic template, this redesign improves on may of the features of the original, while using new folding techniques to achieve an easy to build model with just two pieces. Also like the original series, you are encouraged to create your own design using the blank template provided in the download, which can be shared for others to download and enjoy.

– Print
Print the model onto paper or card, Fold Up Toys recommends a 250gsm card stock for best results, however all models on the Fold Up Toys website should work perfectly well on standard A4 printer paper. On the bottom of the flat template you will see a recommended card stock weight (e.g. 250gsm) for this models specific design.

– Cut
Cut the model out along the solid outline, some models will have sections that need to be cut with a craft knife, younger builders are recommended to get help from an adult.

– Fold
Follow the key on the models flat template, folding up or down along the dotted lines as instructed. Some model builders like to score along the fold lines (go over the lines in advance) with a craft knife or empty ball point pen to get a more precise fold.

– Glue
Most models have numbered tabs, glue the tabs in order to complete the model. If you get stuck, feel free to message the designer using the contact page with a photo of what you’re working on and they’ll be happy to help you.
