50 Coolest Star Wars Flickr Pics

Darth Pramface

Possibly the least practical fun-run getup we've ever seen, but that lucky kid won't care one bit. Not least because he's being carried.

Imperial Spokestrooper

Should it worry us that a news channel is relying on reports from fictional antagonists? Perhaps this is a vox pop. About, like, the new bus routes or something. In fact we really hope it is.

The Sandman Cometh

We'd turn around if we were this bloke - those Tusken dudes don't half honk.

What, No Blaster?

Target practise gets expensive when your weapon decimates anything it hits. So, on training days, budget-conscious Imperial forces kick it old skool.

Force Econoline

We bet it's literally FULL of hot chicks, 24/7.

Attack Of The Tits

Surprisingly SFW, even though there are gratuitous nuts in the shot too.

Steam Wars

A slightly less long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Like, say, around 1892.

Amputoys

Oh, the humanity! Won't someone please think of the children?

Lando Loafers

We have absolutely no idea what's going on in this image, but the captioning on the Flickr page made us cackle like a rutting Tauntaun.

Space Style

The first magazine fashion spread we've ever seen that would hold our attention for more than four seconds.

Rad Radio Control

Our cherished cars, boats and helicopters suddenly look awfully lame. How long is it until Christmas?

Photoshop Force

One of the more impressive photo tweaks we stumbled across - the moody lighting is ace, but we're a little irked by the jeans. If a job's worth doing, etc...

Art Attack

This would actually look pretty cool on our wall. Or any wall, for that matter. But especially ours.

Oh, Wheely?

Imagine pulling up at the traffic lights in this bad boy! Try not to imagine breaking down on the hard shoulder of the M6 in it though.

Jabba Jabber

Jabba ignores the tourists.

D2 Diet?

Old R2 has lost a heck of a lot of weight recently. In fact, we think he's gone a bit too far now - time to get back on the Space Cakes. Or whatever.

Barking You Must Be

About eight hundred different kinds of wrong. And yet so, so right.

Naboo Starfighter

2 miles to the gallon? We'll take it. And no, we won't bother with the optional tinted windows, ta - we're not show-offs, y'know.

Nice Set-Up

We don't remember seeing the red bucket on Luke's homeworld, though - perhaps some local kids were off playing Emperor's Royal Guards with it at the time.

Sarlacc Impression Win

That is precisely the expression we'd be wearing if we found that playset for under fifty bucks. Well, until we realised we were probably too old to justify buying it, and sulked all the way home.

"Sexy"?

There's nothing about this little dude we don't adore.

Attack Of The Clothes

It's her ex-boyfriend's, apparently. He must've REALLY driven her nuts to justify revenge thievery of this magnitude - we'd be gutted to lose that shirt.

X-Win(g)

There isn't a tremendous amount needs adding to this image. Suffice to say, we'd eat here EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.

R2 Goes Postal

We might even be tempted to start writing actual letters to our loved ones again if we had one of these on our street.

ScientLOLogy

Not that we're saying the whole 'space opera' backstory thing is completely insane or anything.

Varga You Than Me

An old cartoon from Mad magazine that, in parodying the wildly complex relationships between Star Wars characters, actually managed to foretell certain events in the later installments.

Hardcore Pawn

We'd gladly put up with the wholy inevitable thrashing for a go on this beauty.

Dancin' Darth

Excuse us if we forget to look terrified, Darth old boy...

Insurrection

Somebody's going to have their graphics tablet confiscated. And probably their throat crushed too. Tsk, tsk.

Hot(h) Brushwork

Awesome artsiness that we'd be proud - although probably girlfriendless, let's face it - to hang in our homes.

Banksytrooper

It's loads better than that Portaloo Stonehenge thing, at any rate...

Obead-Wan Kenobi

We love this pixelly pop art - at first we thought it was a video game sprite, but it's actually those little melty beads that you press with an iron. Top crafting, that Flickr user!

Chewie Hugs

Why didn't we have one of these plushy Chewbacca dolls when we were kids? Gah, our parents clearly never loved us. SULK.

Queen Of Costumes

Top marks for effort and execution here - we've no idea whether or not that hair piece is real, but it must weigh a ton either way. Neck brace tomorrow, we reckon.

Dark Side Or Bust

There's absolutely no way we'd allow this in our house - imagine stumbling to the bathroom in the middle of the night, only to run into this in the hallway - but it's a pretty stunning bit of photorealistic sculpture. Mightily impressive.

Chew Backie

This probably wasn't quite what C-3PO had in mind when Chewie offered him a lift home. Still, we're sure he's too prim and proper to grumble. Much.

Slavish Devotion

Fairly inevitably, we spent a disproportionate amount of time on the Leia gold bikini fan homages. Just to make sure we picked you a good one, y'know.

Little Trooper

This kid is too awesome - we want one. We'd feed it and walk it and everything, honest.

On Yer Bike

From the very top of the 'WTF?' pile. For some reason, we can't stop looking at this one. It's...well, it's just mental, really.

Vadercorn

This isn't the first time we've seen Mr Vader looking distinctly effete. We're sure it'll be the last though. Ahem.

Family Values

Definitely the coolest household on the block. Look at the little Ewok dude down the front! We want to go play with these guys after dinner. Every day. Actually, sod it - can we just live at their house?

Shroomtrooper

Nice forced perspective on this one - somehow makes us feel a bit gippy, but in a weirdly good way.

That's No Moon

The only thing that could make Pink Floyd's amazing The Dark Side Of The Moon any better is if it somehow synched with Star Wars, as opposed to its alleged compatibility with The Wizard Of Oz .

Femtrooper

She makes us feel a bit funny. Well, its either her that does it, or all that sleek white plastic moulding. We can't even tell any more. Help us.

Gotta Han It To Him

We SO hope this is one of those 'man riding an ostrich' designs, with a little pair of fake man-legs dangling down limply at the front. Although we suspect it probably isn't.

City Slickers

It's something about the composition of this one that makes it a winner - the shamelessly macho posturing of the Stormtroopers against that Philly skyline is just ridiculous, especially given the blazing sun.

Chopsabres

If we owned a pair of these, we'd actually use them so often that we'd no longer humiliate ourselves every time we go for sushi. Our lives would be different. And we would be better.

Housetrooper

This Imperial army isn't really quite as blood-curdlingly terrifying as it likes to make out, is it?

Toys R Ace

We had to examine this pretty closely to work out whether it was a toy or...well, not real , obviously...but, um...oh ok, whether it was real. (It's not, it's a toy. Sigh.)
