Play 'Star Wars' at Your Desk: Make This Paper X-Wing Fighter Now
If you’re anything like us, you spent all night giving that Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer the Zapruder treatment, reveling in the Han-Leia clinch or recoiling at Kylo Ren’s Vader fetish. Now what to do until the movie’s Dec. 18 release?
How about building a fleet of X-wing fighters to guard your desk from First Order intrusion.
Noted notebook purveyor Moleskine has released these instructions for an origami X-wing. With a few folds here and there, you can create the starship of choice of such noted Rebel/Resistance pilots as Luke Skywalker, Wedge Antilles, and Poe Dameron. Break out the Crayolas to design your personalized TIE-blasting rig. Astromech not included.
Moleskine released the papercraft fighter instructions, available online at moleskine.com/templates, to mark the launch of its two new Force Awakens limited-edition notebooks, one styled after Sith wannabe Kylo Ren and the other after the First Order Stormtroopers. The $24, 240-page notebooks include movie-themed stickers, images from the new film, and info on the vehicles.
