These Pearl Harbor Paper Planes are Confusingly Cute

Legendo's WiiWare shooter gets cut, folded and thrown
If there's one way to get your WiiWare game on the news page of every Nintendo site going, it's clearly papercraft: last week's Bit.Trip Runner set may not have been as difficult as the game but it looks just as awesome, and now Legendo is following up with foldable paper versions of the planes from upcoming WiiWare dogfighter Pearl Harbor Trilogy - 1941: Red Sun Rising.
Taking in a P40B fighter and an A6M2 Zero Fighter, when completed the two have a charming boxy look about them, with little propellers and even a bit of advertising on the P40B to remind you about the promising WiiWare title that's on its way soon.
Have a go at the papercraft yourself and let us know how they turn out: ours look like they've been shot down already.

More paper craft, cool. This is fun promotional material!
@irken004 The planes don't have to fly. I mean, the Bit.Trip Runner papercraft Commander Video doesn't really run. hehehe

Will always keep my eye on a shooter. Hope this one is good and cheap.

I'm afraid a game with these type of visuals will cost 1500pts.

1500pts? There is no way I'd pay that for a WiiWare game.

@Brandonbwii we're doing our best to make sure that the game launches at a price below that!!
