Origami Star Wars TIE Fighter
The Empire’s fleet is accepting paper reinforcements. One sheet, 24 steps, and a little patience will get you a miniature TIE Fighter, but you’ll have to supply the terrifying flyby noises yourself.

Joining the Galactic Empire used to require questionable morals, a black uniform, and a willingness to work inside a moon-sized workplace with an alarming number of unguarded shafts. Now, all you need is a square sheet of paper.

OrigamiOK’s TIE Fighter transforms a 15 x 15 cm (5.9 x 5.9-inch) sheet into the Empire’s screaming space hexagon in 24 steps. It takes around 20 minutes and is rated intermediate, meaning your first attempt may resemble a crushed napkin from the Death Star cafeteria.

The completed fighter measures about 4 x 3.5 x 5.5 cm (1.6 x 1.4 x 2.2 inches). It cannot fly, fire lasers, or hunt Rebels, but neither can most office stationery. Place it on your desk and hum the TIE Fighter sound yourself.
