A Classic Maneki-Neko
This is an interesting paper model that you find only in the Japanese version of Canon website. Created by designer Ayumu Aaito, this is a Maneki-Neko, or Lucky Cat, and according to Japanese tradition, it is a common figurine (lucky charm, talisman) which is often believed to bring good luck to the owner. In modern times, they are usually made of ceramic or plastic. The figurine depicts a cat (traditionally a calico Japanese Bobtail) beckoning with an upright paw, and is usually displayed—often at the entrance—of shops, restaurants, pachinko parlors, and other businesses. Some of the sculptures are electric or battery-powered and have a slow-moving paw beckoning. The maneki-neko is sometimes also called the welcoming cat, lucky cat, money cat, happy cat, beckoning cat, or fortune cat in English. Maneki-neko come in different colors, styles and degrees of ornateness. Common colors are white, black, gold and sometimes red. In addition to ceramic figurines, maneki-neko can be found as keychains, piggy banks, air fresheners, house-plant pots, and miscellaneous ornaments, as well as large statues. Even though maneki-neko is a Japanese term and maneki-neko are Japanese figurines, they are sometimes incorrectly called the "Chinese lucky cat" and are increasingly popular among Chinese merchants. This pink Maneki-Neko, in particular, was created to attract luck in love.

A Collection of Lucky Cats
Este é um modelo de papel bem interessante que você só encontra na versão japonesa do site da Canon. Criado pelo designer Ayumu Aaito, este é o Maneki Neko ou Gato da Sorte, e de acordo com a cultura japonesa, ele é conhecido como Gato da Sorte, Gato do Dinheiro ou da Boa Sorte é uma escultura asiática comum, na maior parte das vezes feita em cerâmica, que se crê trazer boa sorte ao seu dono. A escultura mostra um gato (tradicionalmente um Bobtail Japonês) a acenar com uma pata levantada, e é muitas vezes colocado em lojas, restaurantes, salas de Pachinko e de outros negócios, quase sempre à entrada. Algumas das figuras são elétricas, funcionam a pilhas ou são alimentados por energia solar, e efetuam um pequeno movimento de pata, como a acenar. No design das figuras, a pata direita levantada supostamente atrai dinheiro, enquanto uma pata esquerda levantada atrai clientes. Os Maneki-Neko pod3em ser de cores, estilos e graus de ornamentação diferentes. Além das figuras de porcelana, os Maneki-Neko podem ter a forma de chaveiros, cofrinhos, aromatizadores de ambiente e outros ornamentos variados. Algumas vezes são chamados erroneamente de Gatos Chineses da Sorte, por serem muito populares entre os comerciantes chineses. - Este Maneki-Neko cor de rosa, em especial, foi feito para atrair sorte no amor.

The "Real" Ash (Bruce Campbell)  in Action
The Evil Dead is a 1981 American horror film written and directed by Sam Raimi and executive produced by Raimi and Bruce Campbell, who also stars alongside Ellen Sandweiss and Betsy Baker. The Evil Dead focuses on five college students vacationing in an isolated cabin in a remote wooded area. After they find an audiotape that releases a legion of demons and spirits, members of the group suffer from demonic possession, leading to increasingly gory mayhem. The film has spawned a media franchise, beginning with two sequels written and directed by Raimi, Evil Dead II (1987) and Army of Darkness (1992), as well as video games and comic books. The film's protagonist Ash Williams (Campbell) is regarded as a cult icon.

 photo ash.paper.toy.robot.004_zpstbtycy9d.jpgThe Evil Dead (no Brasil, Uma Noite Alucinante: A Morte do Demônio; em Portugal, A Noite dos Mortos-Vivos) é um filme norte-americano de 1981 escrito e dirigido por Sam Raimi. O filme teve duas sequências: Evil Dead II (1987) e Army of Darkness (1992). No filme, cinco jovens vão passar um fim de semana em uma cabana isolada nos bosques de Tennessee. Os jovens têm estranhas experiências, obviamente causadas pela presença ali do Livro dos Mortos (o Necronomicon Ex Mortis, encadernado em pele humana e escrito em sangue). Logo depois encontram um gravador. Dentro do mesmo a fita que foi gravada pelo dono da cabana (um arqueólogo), contém a tradução de algumas passagens do livro. Ao ser reproduzida pelos estudantes, desperta os espíritos que estavam adormecidos e que habitam o bosque. Os espíritos começam a possuir os jovens um por um. - Wikipedia
