OMG, I LOVE these.

LOTS MORE...

JWBear · 08-09-2011, 02:46 PM

Much coolness.

innerSpaceman · 08-09-2011, 03:46 PM

Bwahahah, love 'em!

Cadaverous Pallor · 08-09-2011, 05:28 PM

I like this one.

innerSpaceman · 08-09-2011, 06:36 PM

Hahahaha, awesome.

Um, am I a bad Star Wars fanboy if I don't recognize who every one of those characters is supposed to be?

Ghoulish Delight · 08-09-2011, 07:23 PM

Yes.

Some of them are pretty abstract (the Noir one, particularly so), but it's the same set of characters in all of them, so you should be able to extrapolate who is who.

Need a Starbucks?

Use Jonathan's card.

And, of course, if they wanted to throw in a few bucks for the next guy or gal, that would be OK, too.

The card even has it's own twitter account.

Some nice images, but am I missing something because in most of them the only thing that is at all Star Wars seeming about them is a title under the image that includes the word "Wars"?

Ghoulish Delight · 08-09-2011, 08:48 PM

They are all stylized versions of the main Star Wars characters. So the first image in my post is the Star Wars good guys as if Star Wars were actually a 40s sci-fi serial. From left-to-right, R2, C3PO, Luke, Chewie, Obi-Wan, Han, Leia. In the Noir one it's R2, Leia, 3PO, Obi-Wan, Han, Chewie, Luke.

In the dark side group CP posted, Storm Trooper, Vader, Boba Fett.

Some take more liberty than others, but they've all got some thematic reference to the source character.

Oh, I realized that. And I figured the other western dude was Boba Fett, but I wasn't sure. Easy to get the serials and the samurais, but the noir was tough for me. Thanks for the key on that one.
