Tapekachu, pronounced tape-katchu, is a tape sculpture of a Pikachu that currently resides in the office. It is based on a plastic Pikachu toy that used to make noises and was brought in by Maclean Rouble. Tapekachu is likely to be featured as a monster in the upcoming Spacesim Munchkin being developed by Ben Paul.

Creation

The Tapekachu was made by Arrian Amir-Rafiei during the 2008-09 second semester exams. It was made out of clear sticky tape, and later covered with masking tape and colored with a black marker to make it look more like Pikachu.
