EUGY Armadillo

Armadillo means little armoured one in Spanish, and the name is well earned bony plates from nose to tail and, in some species, the party trick of rolling into a ball. The EUGY Armadillo stacks that armour up in layers of recyclable, biodegradable card, which feels rather fitting.

Ages 6+ Builds in about 1020 minutes

What’s in the box

• Pre-cut, numbered card slices armour plating included
• Non-toxic glue in the box, so you can start straight away
• Step-by-step illustrated instructions with armadillo fun facts

How it builds

• Glue slice to slice in number order the layered card mimics the real thing’s plating
• Ten to twenty minutes, no scissors, no fuss
• A slightly left-field pick that stands out in any EUGY collection

Finished, it’s a compact, characterful little tank of an animal the sort of shelf piece people pick up and ask about.

Odd, armoured and rather lovable. See who else is in the EUGY menagerie, or read our guide to why these builds beat screens.
