Awesome!

For some reason 70s music is really popular on the Death Star.

Oh ... my ... GOD!!! Not only is this a fantastic photo (along with the rest of the stormtrooper series), but your sense of humor is priceless! Certainly among nerds, geeks and dorks (such as myself), you must be hailed as a god, no?

Just wait until the Emporer hears about this!

Palpatine was big on the 80's I understand.

this definitely made me laugh. i can't deny that...
i love how shiny the floor is that they're all standing on is. and i definitely gotta hand it to you on the posing of them. i used to take pictures of my brothers action figures until i realized how frustrating it was to pose them.

Emperor Tux says:

I think I figured out why 70s music is popular on the Death Star: the original Star Wars came out in 1977.

BTW You and Dr. Beef: I saw the other one first, and when I saw this, I thought, "...So that's where I saw it." Then I found the other one again...then I read through the comments on this one...so all I can say is, "Great minds think alike."

JD Hancock (in & out) says:

Emperor Tux: Exactly correct regarding the 70s music! And as for Doctor Beef and me: great minds do think alike, and apparently ours do too! ;-)

These stormies look so cute doing the YMCA.

Yeah Right!!!

In their hearts they must be thinking, "Common you low lives, prepare to be annihilated. HA HA HA HA."
