Setsubun Japanese Demon Mask Paper Model - by Rinkintan

By Japanese designer Rinkintan, this is The Demon Mask, used at Setsubun Japanese Festival to scare away bad spirits. Setsubun is the day before the beginning of Spring in Japan. The name literally means "seasonal division", but usually the term refers to the Spring Setsubun, properly called Risshun celebrated yearly on February 3 as part of the Spring Festival. In its association with the Lunar New Year, Spring Setsubun can be and was previously thought of as a sort of New Year's Eve, and so was accompanied by a special ritual to cleanse away all the evil of the former year and drive away disease-bringing evil spirits for the year to come. This special ritual is called mamemaki (literally "bean scattering"). Setsubun has its origins in tsuina, a Chinese custom introduced to Japan in the eighth century. - Wikipedia

Da designer japonesa Rinkintan, esta é a Máscara do Demônio, usada no Festival Setsubun para afastar maus espíritos. Setsubun, ou Festival Japonês da Primavera, é celebrado na véspera do início da primavera no Japão. O nome significa literalmente "divisão das estações", mas o termo normalmente se refere ao Setsubun da primavera, apropriadamente chamado de Risshun (o início da primavera), comemorado anualmente no dia 4 de fevereiro. Faz parte do Festival da Primavera . Setsubun da primavera foi e talvez ainda seja considerado por alguns o Ano Novo Lunar no calendário, ou seja, uma espécie de véspera de Ano Novo. Essa data era acompanhada por um extenso ritual especial de purificação do mal do ano anterior e o afastamento de demônios que possam trazer doenças no ano seguinte. Este ritual especial é chamado mamemaki. Setsubun é originado do tsuina, um costume introduzido pelos chineses no oitavo século. - Wikipedia

Approximately 55-65 centimeters tall, they are the largest of all toucans. Their bright yellow beaks make them truly unique-looking. For food, they mostly eat fruits and insects.

Realistic Octopus Paper Model - by Akashi City

Model Assembled and Photo by Perseus

This realistic paper model of an Octupus came from Japan, offered by Akashi City website. The octopus is a cephalopod mollusc of the order Octopoda. Octopuses have two eyes and four pairs of arms and, like other cephalopods, they are bilaterally symmetric. An octopus has a hard beak, with its mouth at the center point of the arms. Octopuses have no internal or external skeleton (although some species have a vestigial remnant of a shell inside their mantles), allowing them to squeeze through tight places. Octopuses are among the most intelligent and behaviorally flexible of all invertebrates. The octopus inhabits many diverse regions of the ocean, including coral reefs, pelagic waters, and the ocean floor. They have numerous strategies for defending themselves against predators, including the expulsion of ink, the use of camouflage and deimatic displays, their ability to jet quickly through the water, and their ability to hide. An octopus trails its eight arms behind it as it swims. All octopuses are venomous, but only one group, the blue-ringed octopus, is known to be deadly to humans. Around 300 species are recognized, which is over one-third of the total number of known cephalopod species. The term 'octopus' may also be used to refer specifically to the genus Octopus. - Wikipedia


Os polvos são moluscos marinhos da classe Cephalopoda, da ordem Octopoda (Oito Pés), possuindo oito braços com fortes ventosas dispostas à volta da boca. Como o resto dos cefalópodes, o polvo tem um corpo mole, sem esqueleto interno (ao contrário das lulas) nem externo, como o argonauta. Como meios de defesa, o polvo possui a capacidade de largar tinta, como camuflagem (através dos cromatóforos), e autotomia de seus braços. Os polvos possuem oito braços, ao contrário das lulas e sépias, que, além dos oito braços, possuem dois tentáculos. O hectocótilo que atua na hora da reprodução é um braço modificado. Dado que os seus membros são usados na locomoção, também se pode referir aos polvos como octópodes. Todos os polvos são predadores e alimentam-se de peixes, crustáceos e outros invertebrados, que caçam com os braços e matam com o bico quitinoso. Para auxiliar a caça, os polvos desenvolveram visão binocular e olhos com estrutura semelhante à do órgão de visão do ser humano, tendo percepção de cor. - Wikipedia
