Weighted Companion Cube!

kobaj · 10-27-2007, 10:39 PM

Ive played through portal several times and love the game. And then when I heard valve was going to produce a weighted companion cube desk toy I was even more overjoyed. However, its not going to be released until later in the year...

As many of you know I liked to do small paper craft's in my free time. So I googled, and sure enough, while I wait for the official plush to come out, I can mass produce an army of paper ones!

Guide/links to printable cubes.

Have fun with your weighted companion cubes!

(P.S. Mods, I didnt know if it would be best here, because its paper craft, or in the gaming section, because its portal?)

The one that has slits inside, I can slip a penny in, then its weighted! (Cant get my penny out easily though).

Yep, Ive played it through twice, completed the advance maps, and am working on those other bonus (like 7 steps to complete a map).

I was thinking of making one out of metal, and it would be a real weighted companion cube. But then my brother gave me a better idea, Ill see how it plays out this weekend.

when you complete the game there are advanced maps with stuff changed to make it more of a challenge at it makes it harder by changing the weighted companion cube into a ball
