Now, it would appear that making a cardboard robot and taking a couple of pictures of it holding a Wiimote wouldn't be that newsworthy. What's newsworthy about this particular piece of art is sculpted after the Revoltech Dunboard Figure and the boxes used to construct him are custom-made, as the Japanese Wii box (wow, remember when we thought we were getting different colors at launch?) very much resembles the one here for us in the United States.

That wrist strap is not properly fastened. Pray for the day of peace as our robot overlords destroy each other in Wii Tennis matches.

His chuck isn't connected, poor little paper robot with no thumbs.

Those aren't custom boxes. They are the shipping boxes. One of them says on it "3 pces." indicating that it holds 3 Wii's.
