I was just doing some random surfing and came across a couple of really intriguing pictures, of what looked like a little cardboard man in all sorts of situations.
For some strange reason, I couldn't stop looking at them. I did some research and discovered the cardborad man was a Danbo Cardboard Robot. Danbo, is a derivative of the word danboru, which is Japanese for corrugated cardboard.
