Star Trek fan Bob Prior has boldly gone where it's safe to say no man has gone before.
The Trekkie has built sets and characters from the sci-fi show out of packets of Rice Krispies.
His 50 models include the Starship Enterprise, its command bridge and captains James T Kirk and Jean-Luc Picard.
The car park attendant, who says his favourite characters are Kirk, Scotty and McCoy, took six months to put together his cardboard collection, and roped in sons Nigel, 25, and Daniel, 20.
Mr Prior said: 'I just love Star Trek – I loved it since the first series.
'I've made models from the start – right through Deep Space Nine, Voyager and the films up to First Contact.'

But the 52-year-old said his wife, Alison, was not a fan of the show.
'She thinks its like a museum in here, although she's very good and puts up with it,' he added.
Mr Prior, from Ramsgate, Kent, said he got the buzz for cardboard models when he was with the Canterbury Model Railway Society.

'I started off when a member showed me a train built out of card,' he said. 'Since then, I've had a ships phase, a railway phase and more recently I've got into space models.'
His other creations include a 4.5m (15ft) Titanic and a 3m (10ft) Apollo 11 craft.
PUT DOWN YOUR PHASER, OPEN THE DOOR, AND THROW YOURSELF IN FRONT OF THE FIRST LORRY YOU SEE!

"and roped in sons Nigel, 25, and Daniel, 20." i bet he did. spot the contenders for that areas next rapists! get out, meet girls, drink white lightning, smoke a joint and do what you you should have been doing whilst cooped up with your freak of a father. fuck me, that twisted cunt in austria treated his kids better, and he locked em in a cellar for 24 years!!
the biggest shock here is he' s actually married and has kids. (adopted? not his?)
