“‘basic‘ kit, which collectively contain perforated paper shapes to create giraffes, ladybugs, boats, rockets, fruits, trees, and other designs. users can also invent their own custom shapes by cutting and punching paper to use with the LEGO pieces, consisting of regular and... More jointed LEGO blocks and caps to permit the secure fastening of paper in-between.”

“Wow, this design from MUJI is one of the most original that I have seen in a long time. The basic kit comes with a bunch of bricks, and some material hardly ever used with Lego: paper. Paper with some punch out holes as well as a hole puncher. The idea is that you take... More pieces of paper and stick them in between bricks for some unique creations… see the alligator on the last pic for example.”
