If you’re a fan of Star Wars or classic movie icons, you should check out these geeky Stormtrooper roller blinds from the team at English Blinds. The company has created a collection of 14 Stormtrooper-inspired window shades depicting movies greats who’ve crossed over to the dark side!

Featuring a range of iconic film characters such as Forrest Gump, Wolverine, James Bond, Lara Croft, The Terminator & Freddy Krueger, all portrayed by the Imperial Army’s elite shock troops. The uniquely styled designs are digitally printed onto a high quality fabric to create a seriously geeky yet cool way to add to some movie chic to your pad.
