Howdy SuperFolders!!!
We’re CHANGING the way we do TALK TO TOM.
From time to time, Tom will do a LIVE session and answer questions as they come in.
Stay tuned, because the first one is coming up SOON.
Until then:
Here are a few FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS, with answers!
Q: Are you writing more books?
A: YES!!!!!!
I hope to write many, many more books.
Right now I do not have a new Origami Yoda book coming out, but I do have:
The Qwikpick Papers series Book 2 coming in spring 2015.
Return of the Jedi, Summer 2015
McToad (a picture book), Fall 2015
A series with Cece coming 2016!
And of course, my other books: Fake Mustache, Horton Halfpott, Stonewall Hinkleman and Crankee Doodle.
Plus, Cece’s book, El Deafo, tells the real story behind Caroline, from the OY books.
Q: How do I write to Tom?
A: Origami Yoda
Abrams/Amulet
115 W. 18th ST
NY NY 10011
Q: Can I email Tom? Can I post my email or home address in a comment?
A: No, that’s not allowed because of Internet privacy concerns. You should NEVER post your home address online ANYWHERE. NEVER! And you should be very very careful with your email address as well.
Q: Is the TalkZone coming back?
A: No, never.
Q: Is this Website shutting down now that the series is over?
NO! The website stays! It’s a place for you guys to show off your Star Wars origami — and me, too, sometimes. So keep folding and submitting and having fun!
SuperFolder22

SuperFolder22

Banthafolder
Hey tom
Ecko123
Hey Tom, i missed this one… but how about for the next mega doodle it could be a shelf at the super market that has things related just to food, like general cheeses, big pink, a chicken going hey, I’m not food!’ and so on. do you think we could do this?
PauseenP
GENIUS!
Ecko123
Did Tom skip me?
Claire
For the megadollde:princess Leia doing her hair.
folder_888
October 19 is my birthday! yay i am going to be 11 years old
BatMan_Returns
Mine too! I’m turning 13! But, this isn’t the place to talk about it.
folder_888
good point
night_stalker53
Tom, if they make an OY movie, would u want Fox, Disney, or Universal to do it. PS I’m new
folder_888
i’d prefer universal
Claire
Me and my friends used to joke:what if origami today was a musical?
PauseenP
Not Fox because… Anyway, not Disney because they would make it all like ” Oh Tommy, I think I love you but the Ice King, Harvey froze my heart. The only thing that can save my is true lives kiss of Tater Tot. XD
Jessenia
LOL PAUSEEN
Lord_Vader
LucasFilm!!!!! (About 1% Disney, 99% Old LucasFilm before it got sold!)
SFTMGames
Well, thats a tough one. If it was Fox, they might make yoda cgi (like that terrible movie Alvin and the Chipmunks), Disney would make it into a too family friendly movie, and Universal would be like “We don’t and have never had the rights to Star Wars, and we dont want copyright, so what if we replaced Origami Yoda with something we own! Michael Bay, come to the conference room, we want you to direct.”
TomAngleberger
I’ll stay out of this!
BatMan_Returns
Tom, I saw your ” Kendama while skatebiking ” trick on Instagram, and I loved it!!! ^.^
TomAngleberger
Thanks, dude!
MeganPhred

Where can I find El Deafo?

SF_Mega3

BatMan_Returns
Tom, if I send you a letter this month, when do you think it would arrive to you?
BatMan_Returns
Oh, and can you post the Darth Grievous Doodle I sent you? I forgot to post it before I sent it to you.
DarkPVPHacker
k
BatMan_Returns
Um……
TomAngleberger
It often takes a month or two for me to get it, then can take awhile for me to answer…
MaxReboRules
Ive waited 4 months…
BatMan_Returns
Tom, who shot first?
Hansel or Greedo?
LOL! Get it?
SFMichael
Hansel because you are still alive 😛
SF_Mega3
Han and Greedo
Hansel and Gretel
Speed9548
I never noticed that!
LOL 😆
BatMan_Returns
It’s supposed to bw a refrence to Han and Greedo…. Not Hansel and Gretel…
BatMan_Returns
*be
TomAngleberger
Han and then he ate a candy house.
BatMan_Returns
LOL!
BatMan_Returns
Tom, are you subscribed to Loot Crate? It’s like a Magazine subscripiton that you get in the mail every month, except it’s a box filled with nerdy things. And every month is themed. September was Galactic. It had a Tribble from Star Trek, Pop Rocks, a Firefly Vinyl figurine, and a few other things I kinda don’t remember about. I’m trying to subscribe to Lootcrate for three months. It’s cheap. Also, is anyone here subscribed as well? If your not, than you should! You get exclusive things! Oh and there was a Han Solo in Carbonite Poster for the Galactic month. And a Exclusive POP Vinyl Groot!
SFRobby
Quick, lock the tribble in a cage! Don’t let it multiply! Don’t give it food!
BatMan_Returns
Sideshow Bob: *Grumbles*
TomAngleberger
Sounds awesome!
sf_c3p0
Hi Tom! I liked the Mega-Doodle that you made! (Also, I liked the guinea pig! It was quite!)
TomAngleberger
THANKS!!!!!
MaxReboRules
Tom i got an idea for qwikpick 2 or 3 or 4, maybe!
It’s based on something I did in the summer. Maybe the society should do the “Perro Buggati Challenge” invented be me! Reply if u want to know what it is!!!
Claire
I want to know what it is!
TomAngleberger
Save that idea for yourself! You may want to use it someday!
MaxReboRules

TomAngleberger
I’ve been thinking about it!
foldywanrocks1
For the mega doodle can you draw Mike eating astronaut ice cream please
TomAngleberger
Er…. that was last night. Sorry. Join the next one!
SFMichael
Tom, why is everyone making a big deal of getting the last comment on it?
TomAngleberger
Well… it’s just for fun. And it was funny last night since Sam forgot to turn the comments off, so it kept going and going….
Jessenia
Its traditional. And it was funny XD
Rebeljedi
Tom, where do you buy Origami Yoda paper? I looked it up on 3 websites but it isn’t there!
TomAngleberger
It’s almost time for stores to start selling Christmas gift wrap. At least one store, Big Lots, often sells paper that is green/brown. You can buy a lifetime supply for $4!
night_stalker53
STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOKKKKKKKYYYYYY
Crazo2000
Tom, have you seen Super Smash Wars? It’s a mash-up of Star Wars and Nintendo (it’s on YouTube).
TomAngleberger
Not yet!
chewie5
Tom, did you really find the quickpick story or did you make that up for the story? What inspired you for Horton Halfpott?
TomAngleberger
Qwikpick…. well, I DID see the poop fountain and write an article for the newspaper about it!
As for Horton, I was inspired by Charles Dickens.
chewie5
That’s really stooky. I like his book “A Christmas Carol”.
chewie5
Tom, what is your favorite origami piece you have ever made?
TomAngleberger
Cover Yoda!
SPArman
How to you fold the cover YODA
chewie5
Cover yoda’s stooky!
DarthAnna
Your books are sooooo awesome! My friend keeps on letting me borrow her books ( she is obsessed with Star Wars. Are you? ) I think they are … AWESOME!!! Are you going to make another book after Emperor Pickeltine rides the Bus?
TomAngleberger
THANKS!!!!!!!
EP is the end of the OY series, for now. But I have lots of other books, including the Qwikpick series!
SPArman
????????????????
SF_Mega3
Origami Sora: Kingdom Hearts Part 1 Is heading for OY Legends/Expanded Universe!!! Tom, are you excited???
TomAngleberger
YES!
SF_PaperDragon
Where’s the comment thing for the doodle? Is it finished?
MasterFoldrGrievous
yeah, were are the comments?
SF_MyrMyr
We finished, and we were battling for the last comment, so Sam turned off the comments and told us who had the last comment.
MaxReboRules
Tom have you received my letter? It has instrux for a folda fett in it. It also has folda fett
TomAngleberger
Not yet…. it takes awhile….
MaxReboRules
Oh…
sfyoda
hey Mr. Angleberger, I’m trying to make Rotta the Puppettlet!
TomAngleberger
Sounds great!
SFTMGames
Tom- I just realized something. Isn’t Qwikpick the same name as the convenience store in OY???? Perhaps a crossover/reboot of OY and Qwikpick? Like the Simpsons/Futurama crossover, where it reboots Futurama even though Futurama is permanently cancelled. That would be #STOOKYFIZZPOPWAFFLETASTICTRIANGULARSLICKSLACKTOTHEMAX!
sfyoda
yeah I noticed Qwikpick is in DP
SFRobby
Yeah. Qwikpick was a book Tom made a long time ago, but he just remade it.
TomAngleberger
Right, Qwikpick IS in OY.
The first QP book came out awhile back. But now Qwikpick is a series — a trilogy, actually. Book 2 comes out this spring. Book 3 comes out spring 2016.
BatMan_Returns
TOM! I think you can make Foldy-Wan with hood by using Emperor Pickletine instrux AND the Foldy-Wan instrux!
TomAngleberger
Hmmmm….. I’ll have to see it t believe it!
Jawafolderz
hey tom, if youre still here, will/have you made plans to go to other states that you haven’t visited yet?
TomAngleberger
Right now, I don’t have a book tour planned. BUt I will be touring in the spring and summer….
