SUMMARY- He had me at Battlestar Galactica and Star Trek. I can't wait to give a folded Enterprise to a friend who collects Enterprise models! I have no idea how Mr. Nguyen got this past Paramount, and whoever owns the Battlestar Galactica franchise now, I'm just glad he did. These are challenging folds, so I wouldn't hand this book to a kid or complete novice unless I was willing(assuming you're NOT a novice) to sit down and fold with them.

Small note- I hated the fonts and layout of this book. Each page has a watermark bill as a background and the written instructions are in a very light type, plus the busy background is very distracting from the illustrated folds. The book will lay open flat because of the metal comb binding, but they chose rings that are a little too tight, so the pages do not turn smoothly. If you use this book much, it will end up looking a ragged mess with pages falling out. This is all the publisher, who with their experience really should have known better. The odd shape of the book means it will not play well with others on the shelf. As always, your mileage may vary.
