My nephew LOVED this book October 1, 2008
I bought this book for my nephew for his birthday. He carried it everywhere he went and didn't look at his other presents much until later.
Best Star Wars product ever September 24, 2008
There isn't much else to be said that the other reviews don't say - clearly this is a winner. There is something magical about a non techie item that reveres the tech filled star wars universe. During Hurricane Ike in Tx, we had no power for nearly a week and my kids loved this book. There were so many delightful surprises in it, its a wonder of papercraft engineering that will delight for years to come.
Guido Didn't Shot First September 21, 2008
I bought this for my nephews, 3 and 7, and they love it. Even though their parents won't let them watch Star Wars yet, they love being introduced to all these characters through this book.
The pop-ups are intricate and amazing. The multiple layers within layers on just one page is evidenced by the thickness of this book. The pop-ups cascade out to reveal a surprising number of characters from the original trilogy. Luke's boyhood friend Wedge is even in there.
The artwork is true art - reproductions of watercolor. The pop-ups aren't always true to form (the Death Star looks kind of like a squashed ping pong ball) but come on - it's a pop-up!
Great introductory Star Wars brainwashing. Highly recommended.
