Probably the most famous origami Yoda is designed by Fumiaki Kawahata. It’s one of my all-time favourite origami models. Tons of people have folded it and each time it has a slightly different personality based on the folder.
Here’s Tong Liu’s take on the model.

Alexander Kurth folded this Yoda and took this great photo of it out in the forest. It’s a little bit nicer looking than Dagobah but it’s still a great photo.

Finally here’s Gonzalo’s excellent version of the model. I find it very interesting how so many people can fold the same model yet it looks so different each time.
