Introducing Ro-Domo-kun, the latest addition to this unexplainable phenomenon of all things Domo.

This Ro-Domo-kun was created to carry on the long lost craft of the Domo kingdom whereas the last Great Giant Domo-kun was trapped and turned into a backpack for humanoid use as a cruel twist of fate by the mysterious Doctor What. In order for it to replicate, you must Domo It Yourself.

Step 1Bare Essentials

Bare Essentials
This was created using sewing machine, a serger, some hand sewing and a hot glue gun. If you do not have the high-tech industrial equipment, getting by with a needle, thread, and basic sewing skillz will work. You need the ability to cut a straight line and permission to use sharp instruments like a pair of scissors. If you don't have a hot glue gun, regular school glue will work.

CAUTION: Hot glue is hot. Make sure you know how to use your hot glue gun safely and avoid burning yourself if you come in contact with the glue/ glue gun when it is hot. Scream like the Dickens, not like Dickens unless you are British, and apply first aid to the burn.

You will need various ~~pelts~~ swatches of fabric to make your Ro-Domo-kun. They can be any color or texture that you want. I used colors that closely match the Instructables Robot.

You will need bits of different colored scraps of felt to make the trim pieces.

For the core of the Ro-Domo-kun you will need a sponge, preferably clean and new or any foam shape. Additional fiberfill or scrap material will be used as the fill for the plushie figure.

You will lastly need a bit of stiff wire to form the arms and the legs. The bendable wire will give it its poseability.

I have some idea that these are actually angry Domo-Kun as in "Angry Domo-Kun's smash-fest" (or whatever it was called) or was that just the same being angry?

Thanks. I guess that's why someone made the angry smash-fest game. But I think that's done a lot for Domo's popularity?
