I was browsing randomly and stumbled across this. Then I thought, wouldn't a pixel version of this be great?  We could build little pixel toy packs in a variety of sizes and make it a community collaboration.  

If someone wants to make a decent template, go ahead, I'll put it in this post for you.  (An unfolded pixel template should be made, and to show off your unfolded template, a folded template).   That may sound confusing but basically, you have a folded and unfolded version. The unfolded version would have to be able to be printed off and actually made into a little toy.

Here's an example of an unmade and made.


The top is unmade and the bottom made.

My understanding was juts pixeling but I really am not sure. The description was a bit vague... Are we supposed to make a template for a folded flatpack or an unfolded version? Elaboration would be nice if this is to go anywhere.

Exactly.  Jalonso got it. 

They look great and I really think that there could be some cool and very creative ones made. 

EDIT:

That and it helps get pixels off of the screen and into life...

Sounds like a good idea to me.

Yup. I guess you can print them at whatever you want.  

There is a mesh unfolding script for Blender: Unfolder

good for inspiration i guess
