Imagine a fleet of three dozen Valkyries or more--all while paying less than you did for last year's Christmas cards. Imagine designing your own Valkyrie color scheme and building a model of it--in about two hours. Imagine a Valkyrie model kit your 5-year-old cousin can make--in any size you want.
Paper models have advantages over plastic models in the same way that plastics models have advantages over die-cast: economy, scale, and ease of building.
There have been official Valkyrie paper models in Japan since 1983 in every form from giant 1/24 scale to several fully transformable ones. Think of the 1/100 Destroid Monster paper model kit, and then imagine how expensive and commercially unfeasible a 1/100 plastic model kit would be.

Interesting, the question though is why? Maybe it is just me but I would want something a lil bit sturdier...still cool.
