Join the Force’s 40th Year with 11 Star Wars-Inspired Finds

Posted on by

Here’s a fact: Star Wars is a classic. There is no need to argue about that. In every Star Wars franchise, I (and maybe other Star Wars fans, too) become ecstatic whenever the Star Wars Main Title music begins to play, together with the opening crawl. The first of this legendary saga was brought into theaters in 1977, which means that Star Wars is now celebrating its 40th anniversary! If you’re one of those Star Wars geeks, of course, you know that already.

Because Star Wars is classic and timeless, there won’t be enough merchandise for all fans. What better way to celebrate this milestone but to bring additions to your collection – may it be something for a display or a multipurpose item. Here are just some of the few items you may want to take with you:

Star Wars Lightsaber Flatware Set

It’s nice to have your lightsaber prepared for battle. The only difference is, with this lightsaber flatware set, you won’t slicing storm troopers into pieces, instead, you’ll do it in the kitchen.

Star Wars Death Star Waffle Maker

What’s the advantage of joining the dark side? You get to have more waffles. But seriously, eating waffles would be more fun if it has an interesting shape, right. How about gobbling up a Death Star waffle?

Star Wars Death Star Teapot & Mug

Why not compliment those kitchen tools with a cool teapot that’s shaped like the death star? Not only that, it can also serve as a mug. Getting this would be like hitting three birds with one stone since it’s perfect for Star Wars fans who enjoys a cup (or two) of tea.

Star Wars Rey’s Backpack

For the ladies, if you loved Star Wars seventh franchise, “The Force Awakens,” why not get a complete Rey look by getting this backpack?

Amazing Star Wars Posters Made Out Of Post-Its

Star Wars Post It Posters

Who says that there is no room for creativity at modern offices? A company in the UK had a very special decoration based off of Star Wars that we are now sharing with you. 

As if they were creating intricate and beautiful pixel art, a group of employees decided to decorate their office walls with a Star Wars theme in a very geeky fashion, using post-it notes. The company is Viking from the United Kingdom, who is in the office supplies business, and they decided to recreate some of the most well known characters from the series as giant posters made completely out of their supplies.

In the year of Star Wars we are seeing the franchise get stronger than ever, with many new releases in video game, comic book and movie format, with Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens being the main driving force behind the entire experience. Yet, this is the first time we see such a loving tribute based off of doing something fun at the workplace, in true geek spirit and do-it-yourself fashion.

All in all, it took these guys some 3.597 post-its to recreate some of the most iconic characters in the series, with Darth Vader, R2-D2, a Stormtrooper and Yoda among them. All of these pictures were worked on by the team at Viking in a joyful community effort, which must have been way more fun than any motivational speech or activity than any boss could plan. In between planning and executing, this piece of art took some 5 hours of work, what with removing post-its and getting a better feel of the over-all picture. After the process was done, the walls of the office were then photographed and now we get to share them with you.

Being that each post-it us a perfect square, this style lends itself to pixel art and minimalist aesthetics, so each and everyone of the characters looks a bit simplified but still perfectly recognizable – this is a great way to remain faithful to the original depictions but also showcase some style and originality. We are particularly fond of the Yoda and Darth Vader posters, for they have the cutest eyes and happen to look great in this style too.

The team behind these posters also created a fantastic timelapse video where you can see them hard at work, putting each note on the wall by hand. The posters were created simultaneously, with all of them moving from one piece to the next one, and, well, we say the end result was worth all the hard work they put in. You can check out the video right below these lines. Which ones are your favorites? Let us know about them in the comments section.
