Quirky, funny and easy origami action models that move, fly, delight and surprise!

On every page of Action Origami you'll discover unusual origami models that will tickle your funny-bone! Folding up these quirky objects is just part of the fun! Once they're folded, you'll have hours of fun playing with toys that spin, flex, hop, fly, wink, chomp, wiggle – and so much more!

The 70+ unconventional models in this book fall into five exciting categories:

  • Funny Faces and Silly Poses that Disguise, Flex and Amuse: like Cheeky Moves, with its waggling rump, the hilarious Blinking Eyes, and an origami Sit-Up enthusiast that you can force to perform rep after rep!
  • Amazing Magic Tricks that Transform and Surprise: like Momotaro's Peach, with Peach Boy concealed inside until you 'deliver' him, and the spring-loaded Surprise Snake-in-the-Box!
  • Spooky Otherworldly Models that Wiggle, Chomp and Startle: like the silly 'two-models-in-one' Kappa Eating a Fish, and the scooting Snake Cryptid!
  • Awesome Articulated Toys that Spring, Scoop and Fly: including a functioning Power Shovel Arm and a Catapult, to respectively grab small items and then launch them away, and the Spinning Propeller, which spins just like a falling maple seed!
  • Cute Chibi Animals that Dance, Swim, Jump and Move: like the Monkey Playing Cymbals, the topsy-turvy Headstand Penguin, and the Howling Dog that tips his head toward the sky, as if ready to let loose with a volley of soulful baying!

Never settle for folding ho-hum models again! You have dozens and dozens of fold-and-play action models to enjoy and share with your friends!
