Hi guys. I'm not really into the origami of making cranes and stuff like that, but I got this little kit for christmas a few years ago called "geogami". I think it was basically this one:

But I've since lost it. I googled "geogami" and found a few of the things from the book like this one:

and this one:

but I can't find many others. Basically I'm wondering, is there another more common name for this? Can anyone suggest me some good sites for this? Cause I really like making these shapes and stuff. Thanks!

Hello and welcome on board, it seems what you are searching for are Modular Polyhedra. Visit Meenakshi Mukerji's homepage to find lots of diagrams: http://origamee.net/

There are also three books by John Montroll how to make Polyhedra from one square sheet of paper, don't know if this is any interesting to you.

Other books to look into can be found at the Viereck-Verlag here.

if you're looking for more, there is also this guy on youtube called barbaaltje (i think thats how you spell it...) who do some very good modular origami tutorials.

Barbabellatje you mean? She's not a guy...
I agree with you, she does indeed make great tutorials for modulair origami
