Steampunk Star Wars

I did have something witty and insightful that I planned to post today, but between toying with the pacing of CALLARION AT NIGHT and general busyness, I kind of forgot. So instead I will today regale you with photos of Steampunk Star Wars action figures.



The view of all the characters -- Obi-Wan is on the far left and a stormtrooper is on the far right.




C-3PO and R2-D2


Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker




Chewbacca and Han Solo




Stormtrooper and Darth Vader

Am I too much of a nerd if I say that I really really want to buy the entire set?

  1. You are not a nerd. They are very cool. (Well, maybe you are a nerd, but who cares?)

    Thanks for the OK on being nerdy. These figures are just too cool to not share with you all.

  5. You're not alone. I want them too, and I'm not even that huge of a fan of Star Wars. (I know, I know... I just don't get it, I guess). But yes-- want!!!

  7. These are beyond cool, somewhere in a perfect storm of awesomeness.

    I'm really, REALLY, going to have to start reading steampunk now.

    Bane - I'm pretty sure steampunk would be an advancement in technology for the Ewoks.

    Also: Is is me, or does Chewie look unchanged from the original??

  8. Susan Quinn --

    The original Chewie just had the bandoleer as clothing. This one includes a vest and pants.

    "Perfect storm of awesomeness" ... totally have to use that phrase somewhere now.

    All --

    I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one set to drooling by these.

  14. I've been coveting these for AGES. Genius, I tell you. GENIUS.

    And Luke looks kind of non-wuss. How did they accomplish that?

  16. I've been a recovering nerd for years, but I just had a major relapse.
