There's no denying that Star Wars is an enormous franchise that has inspired legions of would-be troopers, and to commemorate those fans, illustrator Mike Kungl has created these Soviet-styled Star Wars displays for them.
The Star Wars propaganda-styled art illustrations were created to to celebrate the annual 'May the Fourth Be With You' event. The art depictions showcase popular characters such as Darth Vader, C-3PO, Jabba the Hut and one of those visually impaired Storm Troopers that's inspired several Internet jokes. The Star Wars displays by Kungl will be showcased at Disneyland Resort, California for the ACME Artist Showcase.
Luke Skywalker may be the protagonist of this film series, but there's no doubt in anyone's mind that Darth Vader is the one character that people often remember on a regular basis when remembering this franchise.
