Stormtrooper Helmets Reimagined by Celebrities & Artists will be on Displayin Celebration of the Global Fan Holiday, May the 4th
Lucasfilm, Disney Consumer Products and Neff announced today the upcoming Star Wars Legion exhibition. Artists from across The Walt Disney Company including Lucasfilm, Industrial Light and Magic, Marvel and Pixar—as well as select street artists chosen by Neff and celebrity Star Wars fans –all come together to create individualized interpretations of the iconic stormtrooper helmet in celebration of the global fan holiday, Star Wars Day or “May the 4th be with you.”
One of my local collector friends from JediDefender ran into this Star Wars themed beer last night at a local liquor store: Dark Fatha American Emperial Stout from Bent Brewstillery from right here in Minnesota. I guess I know where I’m going tonight.
Collider has posted an exclusive that Bottleneck Gallery will be having a timed release sale of Marko Manev’s Star Wars Triptych prints this Friday (Jan 17) through Sunday (Jan 19). Prints can be purchased individually or as a matching numbered set. Head on over to Collider.com for details and a closer look at the art.

Funko has also announced a new Star Wars BOXOS papercraft two-sided display featuring the Bespin Carbon Freezing Chamber and Gantry. Now before you dismiss this out of hand, the figures included with the display are about 4″ tall each, so you may be able to use it as an action figure display for Hasbro, LEGO or Kubrick figures (the last two being more appropriate stylistically). I plan on picking up a set when they are available to test out.
Similar to a mash-up between Star Tots and Mighty Muggs, Mini Wars are cute interpretations of iconic Star Wars characters by talented artist Ryan Spencer. Check out these awesome illustrations and design concepts and more on Flickr.
