A whole lot of antique paper toys for download.
There is a print of a Japanese woman and her child assembling a paper toy (Trigger warning: depiction of sharp scissors),

A web page about a paper model of a kitchen from 19th c. Japan

豊久｢おもちゃ絵　忠臣蔵｣ | 山田書店美術部オンラインストア
An amazing 4 sheet tatebanko of Lord Kira's estate under attack by the 47 ronin.
There are many figures and buildings.
The image of the woodblock prints are not large enough to print and assemble :-(

A little searching turned up a copy of the Revenge of the 47 ronin with all the prints in the set, and available for download as high resolution images:
赤穂市「忠臣蔵」浮世絵データベース - 検索結果
The artist was Toyohisa, the publisher (or censor?) was Jusai Toyomaru.
The tatebanko includes buildings on the estate grounds, the famous fight by the pond, the 47 ronin and Kira's retainers, fleeing women in various stages of undress, and of course Kira himself trying to hide from the ronin.

Bonus, a playset of Edo period carpenter's tools.
