I finally managed to find a few spare hours to make a spaceman from Shirley Ray's PDF instructions. This is not the same as the Buzz Lightyear from her DVD. It has a similar design and stands taller with a lovely backpack. Available as PDF from her website at £12.

I hope you like it...

Very nice, Darren!   :D

The proportions look spot on, and nice detail with the radio antenna, etc.

I can see why you said 'several hours'!  ;)

Thanks Neil - in the end it took about 2.5 hours following the instructions. With practice I should be able to get this down to less than an hour but it is hard work. One I will save for a special event. I took the completed model down to my local hospital and sold it to someone for £25... all monies to the hospital charity of course. Once I had taken a few photos for my collection I would have given it away so someone may as well benefit.
