Meowser" is a portmanteau of "Meow" (the sound a cat makes) and "Bowser" (the main antagonist in the Super Mario video game series). Meowser refers to a transformed version of Bowser that appears in the game "Super Mario 3D World" and its enhanced version "Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury."
In these games, Meowser is the result of Bowser using the Super Bell power-up, which turns characters into cat-like forms. Meowser is a larger, more feline version of Bowser with a cat-like appearance. This version of Bowser has sharp claws and can climb walls, much like the playable characters when they are in their cat forms.
Meowser serves as a formidable and recurring boss character in "Super Mario 3D World," adding an interesting twist to the traditional Bowser battles. Players need to use their cat-like abilities to defeat Meowser and progress through the game.
This papercraft gets a hard rating for a couple of reasons. First is simply its size and complexity - at 15 pages it’s quite a long build. The second reason is there are some difficult angles and curves to negotiate. There aren’t really any small fiddly pieces, but attaching all the large pieces together can be a bit tricky. Dimensions of the finished product are about height: 22cm x width: 30cm x depth: 26cm.
