If you’re in a repressive Communist country and have a little time to kill, what are you going to do? I mean, the Internet’s all censored, TV as well. You need a hobby, and this young man’s is papercraft, the art of sculpting complex and/or beautiful items out of paper and glue.
But this guy’s gone to the next level, and we love it. Using nothing but cardboard from Chinese KFC buckets (they have KFC in China?), he’s built a fully-posable replica of Bumblebee from last year’s Transformers movie. And it’s badassery at its finest. Hit the jump to see the final product. Then make sure to hit the guys blog at the link provided for tons more photos and a rough how to. Warning: wonderful Engrish abounds.

They have KFC in China, yes. It’s pretty much like KFC in the US, but if you go there, you have to try the Peking Chicken. It’s totally bizzare.

Whoa, I need to try that!
I’ve had Chinese-style pizza before, it was terrible. Just awful.

KFC is actually really big in China - they’re the biggest in fact: http://www.fas.usda.gov/info/agexporter/1997/July%201997/fastfood.html
McDonalds, who is #1 in the US, can’t keep up.

Yes - Colonel Sanders is the Ronald McDonald of China.
