Make Your Own Vault Boy

by Matt Miller on Feb 21, 2011 at 07:50 AM

An enterprising artist has put together a papercraft model set for the inimitable Fallout 3 mascot. Do you have the folding and cutting skills necessary to create your own bobblehead friend?

Deviant art member z8-0 has put together a cool papercraft model set of the Science Vault Boy Bobblehead from Fallout 3. Geeky glasses are included. The collectible bobbleheads in Fallout 3 awarded stat and skill bonuses, not to mention a nice little achievement for the full collection. Completing this model set will not award you an achievement, but will no doubt earn you the respect and admiration of your peers.

Sadly, we lack the necessary artistic skills to put such a fine construction together. If anyone successfully prints out the model and puts it together, let us know how it went in the comments below.

Thanks for reading.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.

Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.

We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.

It’s not possible without support.

In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.

Thank you.
