Support Stormtroopers is a movement which has captured the hearts of those on both sides of the forces. Featuring the ribbon design familiar to many activist groups, the Support Stormtroopers magnet might be for a fictional cause, but the place it holds in our nerdified hearts is all too real.
I won’t lie to you, I even have one on my fridge (where do you think I got some of these pictures?). Check out other Stormtrooper finds on Trend Hunter below.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Fandom Magnets
- There is an opportunity for companies to create a line of fandom magnets based on popular TV shows, movies or books.
- Activist-inspired Design
- Designs that take inspiration from activist groups can be used for products other than activism-related merchandise.
- Nostalgic Products
- There is a market for products that appeal to people's nostalgia, especially in the sci-fi and fantasy fandoms.
Sectors Adopting This
- Merchandise Manufacturing
- Manufacturers can create licensed merchandise for popular fandoms that includes novelty items like magnets.
- Retail
- Retail stores can carry a line of fandom magnets that appeals to their customer base.
- Marketing
- Marketing companies can create promotional magnets that utilize activist-inspired designs to appeal to a wider range of consumers.
