TruffleShuffle Loves Chunk!
Here at Truffle Towers we love waiting for deliveries of new Retro T-Shirts, especially when thei're coming from top brand Chunk Clothing. As soon as that loading bay door goes up and that delivery truck backs up, itâs like a stampede of hungry Truffle Shufflers at Christmas ripping open boxes just to get our hands on those new funky T-Shirt designs.
My favourite design from their range are the funny Star Wars Stormtrooper T-Shirts. So I figured Iâd use my Jedi powers and search the galactic web space (also known as a Google search) and share some of my favourite Star Wars inspired fan art, Cosplay and other crazy goodies from the farthest reaches of the Dark Side.
Enjoy and may the force be with you.
1) I think the Droids went this way. No Mike I think those were Beatles
3) Ok so the plan is. Hit 88 mph go back in time and patch up that tiny vent thus making the Death Star completely indestructible so we can all go to the annual Empire Employee dance and chat up drunk alien chick right?
Our New Star Wars T-Shirts Are Out Of This World!
With so much hype surrounding Star Wars recently with it being sold to Disney and an impressive THREE brand spanking new films coming our way soon, we just couldn't resist the temptation to reaffirm our love of the cult films than with some fab new Star Wars T-Shirts!
With a little something for everyone be it a classic style Star Wars Logo T-Shirt design, a fancy dress style R2-D2 vest, or even a fun twist on a classic with a funny t-shirt, our latest collection is the perfect way to show your love in style and won't break the bank too!
A simple classic, this wicked Star Wars Logo T-Shirt features the logo we all know and love as seen at the beginning of the 1977 film before the text crawl starts.
If you like your style and designs a little different, our new Pool Hall Star Wars T-Shirt is the one for you! Featuring the Dark Lord Vader himself shooting some pool with Boba Fett and a trusty, if not very accurate, Stormtrooper. Let's hope they can shoot pool better than they can shoot their E-11 blasters otherwise things could get messy!
