Evian Star Wars Bottles: Drink the Force
Posted: 25 Dec 2011 07:00 AM PST
While I'm far from being a water-snob, I do like drinking Evian instead of tap water whenever I can find it here in Taipei. These concept Star Wars Evian bottles look pretty awesome, and just make me want to drink the expensive bottled water even more.
The special-edition bottles were designed by Mandy Brencys, who probably likes drinking Evian too – and definitely likes Star Wars. The bottles themselves are shaped a bit like lightsabers, so you're supposed to wield them as such, depending on which side you've chosen, the Light Side or the Dark Side of the Force.
While Evian probably won't ever make these, maybe if enough geeks forward them the concept, they might be convinced. I think the R2-D2 bottle looks the best. Which one is your favorite?

Christmas at the Skywalkers', LEGO Style

This shot of Luke and Leia decorating the Xmas tree does look quite funny, though the idea of a dead Vader head on as a tree-topper is a bit morbid. Either way, even with Darth Vader gone, the Skywalkers still have to celebrate Christmas, even if they are in a galaxy far, far away.
Chris McVeigh came up with a couple of fun scenes of a LEGO Star Wars Christmas. The Halifax-based photographer has all sorts of fun minifig photos and other cool LEGO creations that you can check out on his Flickr site or his Tumblr.
If you like these then you can get some prints of these and other shots over at Chris' Society6 site. Most of them are available as 10″×7″ prints and sell for $16 (USD) each.
