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.”
If you followed along via Facebook and Twitter on Tuesday, you’ll be up to speed on these but if not, here is a gallery of the 12″ scale line of figures coming to the Disney Store starting in May for $29.95 each. Things kick off with the Stormtrooper and then a new figure is released approximately every week there after. First for figures are Han, X-Wing Pilot Luke, Stormtrooper, and Darth Vader. Later in the fall we get Boba Fett and a 15″ Chewbacca. Click on through for the gallery.
