Steampunk-Inspired Star Wars Figures

steamwars-QUADpic.jpgLast week, a reader sent in a question asking for suggestions on how to incorporate a steampunk look into her son's room. Well, we found these fantastic steampunk-inspired Star Wars figures that are just too cool for school. Yowza!

 
 

These lovelies are created by Sillof's Workshop and have an amazing attention to detail. Sillof states, on his Web site, "I love the clunky old-fashioned look of the industrial era...it is influenced by Jules Verne, HG Welles, Terry Gilliam, Guillermo Del Toro, etc. But I feel it has my own unique sensibilities as well."

The entire Star Wars gang is here with Victorian looks, steam-powered lightsabers, watch fobs and an entire galaxy full of cool. Sillof has also created figures for The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.

Wow! I'm on geek overload right now! I want these for myself! I'm new to the steampunk aesthetic, but definately a fan.
