May the Force Be With Your Nuts (Albuquerque Journal)

(Credit: ThinkGeek)

We understand if the idea of letting Darth Vader near your nuts causes, um, a
slight disturbance in the Force.

But never fear: It is, after all, that Nutcracker Suite time of year. And
unless you're clumsier than a Mythbuster and get your fingers where they
oughtn't to find themselves, the only casualties here are likely to be pecans,
almonds, and such.

In fact, seeing as these "Star Wars" nutcrackers appear to be ornamental in
nature, your cache of hazelnuts is probably safe from the Stormtroopers as
well.

Don't let your guard down too far, though. If one of these babies falls into
the hands of your younger brother (or problem child), your priceless
collection of "Star Wars" action figures may well end up tragically
decapitated.

The nut sabers, which can be sought out through Web site Kurt S. Adler (among
other places, we're sure), seem to run anywhere from about $25 to about ...

Amazing Stormtrooper Costumes From Stars Wars

After 3 decades the Star Wars series shows not any indication of scaling down and they just lately announced an animated version of the Clone Wars arriving at theatres soon plus an animated TV series too. Great.

It's no surprise that a movie this popular inspires generations of massive fans who desire to be as close to the movie and their favorite characters as they can be and it appears like the sci-fi genre produces the most significant of fans. Many of the most famous Star Wars Collectibles focus around some of the least glamorous characters in the movie, the unsung hero called the Storm trooper.

The Stormtroopers did all the work and got not one of the glory that many of the most favored Star Wars villains could actually achieve. Darth Vader, Boba Fett, Darth Maul all received the credit as being the villain when in reality without the Stormtroopers, they'd have just been some goofy looking guys playing around in funny looking costumes. The Stormtrooper provided the sheer might that it requires to enforce your will over the galaxy and without the tens of thousands of Imperial Stormtroopers, Darth Vader would've been guessing your weight at the circus.

The Stormtroopers have inspired and developed legions of fans everywhere that recognize that Stormtroopers rule thereby their is a big interest in Storm trooper memorabilia. Stormtrooper helmets are the most in-demand Star Wars Collectibles ever and most get it to a whole other level and buy a complete set of Stormtrooper armor. Although this may seem like overkill to many, to a true fan they want the whole deal and good quality pieces can be purchased.

Storm trooper helmets and Stormtrooper costumes are offered in different sorts of shapes and sizes and you can even end up finding authentic items from the actual movies for sale on Ebay or other auction houses. The exclusive edition Stormtrooper helmets you can purchase are perfect but nothing would complete your Star Wars collection like an Stormtrooper helmet from the actual movie. If you look, they are on the market but actually a supercool replica stormtrooper helmet is still guaranteed to be a hot collectible in the next several years.
