Kirby Sculpture Made By Fan Is Equal Parts Adorable & Terrifying

A fan’s home-made sculpture of Nintendo’s round pink adventurer Kirby is both cute and unbelievably disturbing. The protagonist of his own series of action-platformers, Kirby made his big debut back in 1992’s Kirby’s Dream Land and has since become one of Nintendo’s many mascots. While some have given Kirby’s copy abilities a dark twist, the hero’s smooth appearance and pink color make him one of the cuter members of the already adorable Nintendo family.

For almost thirty years the Kirby franchise has brought players on unique platforming adventures with the series’ titular hero. The character’s ability to float leads to a great deal of creativity in terms of level layouts, as players are able to complete jumps that would be impossible for other platforming protagonists. Kirby also possesses the truly unique ability to inhale enemies and objects into his mouth, shooting them back out as a projectile. Inhaled enemies can also be swallowed, letting Kirby copy their powers for himself to use in combat. Many fan creations such as a Kirby’s Dream Land LEGO set have paid tribute to the puffy pink gaming icon and his beloved series.

Reddit user I-am-L- has also paid a unique tribute to Kirby, but their interesting sculpture puts a truly terrifying spin on the typically cute character. The sculpture itself seems to be made out of yarn, perhaps as a tribute to the 2010 game Kirby’s Epic Yarn, with lifeless googly eyes replacing the hero’s usual friendly expression. Unfortunately, Kirby’s mouth is also filled with many straight pieces of sharp wire, making him look like something out of a particularly horrific nightmare. The teeth would likely eviscerate anything he ate, making this version of Kirby even more merciless than the normal one. While the sculpture does capture his color and shape, the deadly mouth adds a wholly original horror compared to usual depictions of Kirby.

Kirby has been around for almost thirty years, and in 2022 the long-running Nintendo mascot will receive his next exciting series installment. Kirby and the Forgotten Land’s reveal trailer was shown at September 2021’s Nintendo Direct, with the game slated for a release in Spring 2022. The hero’s newest journey will take him through a post-apocalyptic human metropolis, potentially acting as a large open world for players to explore. The game is set to be a 3D platformer, with the abandoned city acting as an interesting intersection between cartoonish style and mature background.

Kirby’s copy abilities have always been vaguely creepy, with the cheerful pink hero swallowing enemies whole in order to steal their life energy. I-am-L-‘s yarn sculpture turns this disturbing subtext into full-blown context, with their version of Kirby no doubt shredding any hapless enemies that he inhales. While the creation is almost too horrific for this world, it also displays keen craftsmanship with yarn and presents a wholly original take on Nintendo’s Kirby franchise.
