Very nicely formed jet-pack. And I especially like color-changed stripe on the shield (is it shield?).

You should replace the shield with a giant machine gun.

Thank you everyone! Ondrej, it is indeed a shield. I didn't think of the giant machine gun, but perhaps it is possible...One problem though is that adding fingers greatly reduces the length of the flap that I used for the shield. Come to think of it, I initially had fingers on that hand and he was holding a pistol

It's the year 2200. After decades of inhaling toxic vapor from over-polluted air, a strange mutation has occurred within the human species. TINY LITTLE HANDS have started to sprout out of the human finger!!!
These "fingerhands" can be trained to hold objects and perform daily tasks like a normal hand. They also make for the ultimate game for rock, paper, scissors! The only problem is that it's a major pain to cut the tiny fingernails. The moral of the story is that, if you don't want to spend 5 hours a day clipping your fingerhandfingernails, you should stop driving motor cars.

Now that was amusing.
Yes, I am that Joseph Wu. Not that it really matters. And please call me Joseph or Joe. "Mr. Wu" is my dad.

Hummm. I think that it shouldn't take so long cutting fingernails. A hand cuts nails of the other, that cuts from other, that cuts from other...
All right, according to the global watch, it seems you have like an hour or so for posting, and ill post the results in, hummm, eighteen hours (its still 6:41 pm in Mexico)

This was a very prolific challenge. All the entries were very creative and well folded. But, as I have to choose a winner, here it is:
And the winners for this monthly folding challenge are...
Tuturu tuturu tuturu tuturu pishhh!!"
3rd place: Origamimasterjared Gatling gun. I searched for one of these a long ago, never found one. This has all the line simplicity and charm that mathces with an origami model, good job.
2nd place: Jonnnycakes Future soldier. I liked your first folding rather than the second, mainly for the colors and the pose. Indeed, the character structure and the model design are both excellent. good job.
1st place: Daydreamer 19th century camera. I have no words to describe how good I think this model is.
So, daydreamer is the judge for May and the topic chooser for June
For May I would call it "Life in Oceania". As I know, in that continent lies the largest biodiversity of the world. I encourage to fold only endemic species.
