If there's one thing to say about Star Wars fans it's that they like to express their love for the franchise in interesting ways and these complex paper airplanes by Martin Hunt are make to look like the Millennium Falcon and other famous ships from the epic series.
Being a huge fan of the film series myself, I was instantly drawn to these because they have such a fantastic attention to detail. Moreover, each one is folded to near perfection and actually look like models; that is until you realize they're made of paper.
The entire collection ranges from including intergalactic vehicles from the movies like Boba Fett's ride or an Imperial Star Destroyer to loveable characters like R2D2.
