Papercraft: Portal Papercraft
I've got no idea exactly what this is. And I won't check the comments section to hear you tell me (Orange Box isn't out yet here, you see). But I do know Portal's Companion Cube is already a big hit with the kids, so much so people tell me Valve will be releasing a plushie. Adorable. In the meantime, though, you can honour your favourite gaming character for this week by printing off this papercraft and either gluing or (if supervised) stapling it together. Portal-obsessed parents of small children may even wish to print off multiple copies, and arrange them in some form of dangly mobile.

I would like to remind you that the companion cube can not talk. If the companion cube would happen to talk, ignore it.
Off to mass-make these :D

okay, this is horribly delicate work, you need some sort of large format printer to get a decent result. i'll contact my missus to see if her dad (who is something like an architect) can print it in a larger format.

Gah, my new office only does A3. We had a full monster-size plotter in my old place, probably could have done full size!

You are all silly.
It is only a matter of time before Valve add the WCC to their store.

Indeed, but it's unlikely they'll make a full size WCC
