My kids are gonna have a blast with this!
For those of you interested, he says he sacrificed playing time and sleep to
make this model. The notes on the instructions read:
B6/B4 (B5, B7 on opposite side)
All the other text in the diagram basically says some combination of left,
right, top, and bottom.
The legend reads: Solid line: Cut Dashed line: Fold out
Dot-dash line: Fold in
Dot-dot-dash line: Glue region line
Stars and dots: Show marks to be mated in drawings.

Thank you, gentlemen!
Edward, are there dimensions given? I saw the cigarette pack for
comparison, but I'm lousy with my Mark I. ;->=
Are the sheets what in the USA would call standard typewriting size?
I recently found some really cheap cut out Star Trek ships; with the right
paper, this looks very promising as a mystery attacker!

I downloaded the gif and put together the Protoss Probe. The gif was not
standard U.S. letter size. However, the parts of the Probe each fit on letter
size paper. So, with judicious cropping, I was able to print it out on heavy
paper, cut it out, and glue it together. The Terran Battlecruiser looks a lot
more complicated, so I haven't tried it yet.

The sheets seem to be A4 without margins. I just set Acrobat papaer size
to B4 and punched print - no problem.
If you're in the States, maybe 11x17? Anyway, they are in pieces, so you can
pop it open in Photoshop or something and move things around easily enough.
No dimensions given, but the easiest thing to do is just open it and see.
The diagonals are pretty bad (staircase artifacts), but considering these are
templates for making a model, probably acceptable. Slop some paint over it
when you're done and viola!
P.S. My kids did love it. Not done yet, but seems to be pretty well done.
