This is perfect! Cory's posting (years ago now) of Shunichi Makino's
SF Papercraft Star Wars models is what got me into designing my own. I
owe a debt of luck to both of them.

The book is filled to "stuffed" with so many designers I admire:

- Julius Perdanna, the paper czar of paper-replika.com with two
monstrously detailed machines.

- Axel Bernal and his Bolo Bot -- a uniquely designed ratchet/flap-
jointed beauty (my personal favorite out of the book).

- Elso Lopez, yes, "the" Elso of Elsocraft, who made a downhill-
walking dog bot. Terminator and Wall-E would have each taken their own
books ;)

- Arif Suseno, who made 4 toy-riffic models calling back to the era of
Voltron, Transformers and Aliens. Sweet!

- Kurt Young, Mr. Paper Robots 1999 (!!!), who has demonstrated his
lineage of Makino's techniques with two mega-poseable models. The
Spider-bot is as poseable as a LEGO Bionicle!


I'm just glad to have the book and CD so I can finally build them now!
