Pikmin Art: A Crowd in Cardboard!

As you know if you are a frequent visitor to Socklet-World, or even the occasional viewer who picks out Pikmin entries, my son LOVES Pikmin games, characters and objects.

 As it is very difficult and would be astronomically expensive to find and buy all the toys and models from the games, we are reduced (or elevated??) to drawing them out on cardboard from cereal packets, which he then colours and cuts out. 
This has the added benefit that you can a) have as many as you like and b) have them in any colour, pose or oddness you like.

Here is a sample


This is the kind of scattered handful you generally find on the sofa or in the backseat of the car, after which he will tell you at a glance that one is missing and, after a fruitless search, it will be drawn, coloured and cut all over again.
