Cube box by Giovanni Maltagliati
If there's a way to "lock" this, I haven't found it, so I put a small piece of tape over the join at the top. From Kunihiko Kasahara's Origami El Mundo Nuevo.

Sparrow by Edwin Corrie
Yes, the directions clearly say to use paper colored the same on both sides. I used what was handy. From British Origami #145 (December 1990)

Balloon by Steffen Gnam
I could not get Gnam's basket to work, so I improvised one out of a square 1/4 the size of the balloon. The balloon does not stay in the basket, however—but I suspect Gnam's did not stay either.
From the British Origami Society Autumn Convention 1984.

Horse by Akira Yoshizawa
From British Origami #142 (June 1990). (The photo on the cover is of a different Yoshizawa horse made from two pieces; the one I folded is a one-piece model. Both are diagrammed in the magazine.)

Pyramid tent by Jonathan Walton
An incredibly difficult fold. I ended up using the "smash and hope for the best" approach when I could no longer understand the diagrams. From Eric Kenneway's Origami: Paperfolding for Fun.

Gorilla by Akira Yoshizawa
I was almost too embarrassed by this to post it. The face is hard! But I guess it requires "softer" paper (maybe dampened?—many folders advocate "wet folding") and lots of practice!
