a pop up guide to the galaxy

So, I’m not what you call a star wars fan, at all, but a friend of mine got this book, and it’s frakkin’ incredible! (for adults and kids!)It rivals those Sabuda pop up books in terms of the aesthetics.

(No, this isn’t my friend, but I kind of love this guy’s videos, even though I have very limited japanese knowledge. His excitement transcends language, man.) That last bit is pretty amazing!

Star Wars - A Pop-Up Guide to the Galaxy, by Mathew Reinhart

I got this Christmas of '07 from my hubs. He’s the bestest!

a friend gave it to my son for his birthday. It is fantastic.

Is it just me, or does it seem like each one had to be hand built?

The wife and kids got it for me for Xmas a couple years back.

Until I opened it, it seemed like a useless but nice indulgence.

It is frakking awesome.

It is an amazing piece of art, really something to behold.

Plus, the lightsabers light up.

Whoops, sorry! I feel pretty silly ‘reporting’ on such old news. :smiley:

I’m glad to hear that so many of you have this book though. Those lightsabers are pretty amazing, aren’t they?
