Welcome once again to the movie marketplace that is Watto’s Emporium, which rounds up some of the best merch that we found across the online galaxy this week. And this week we have species equality, ruthless jewellery and Empirical propaganda drives, as this week’s collection of merchandise, inspired by the week’s new releases or news, is just as odd an assortion as ever…
3. Queen Ravena inspired Jewellery (etsy.com, £13.10)
Over at Etsy.com many a bold, barmy and well crafted movie-tie in can be found but for those of you excited by today’s release of fantasy action film The Huntsman: Winter’s War, the sequel to 2012’s Snow White & The Huntsman, ManandDogDesigns has crafted this brass jewellery inspired by the attire of Queen Ravena (Charlize Theron) in the film. Perfect for a power wielding wicked ruler.
2. Equality For Prawns Shirt (, £18.02)
Meanwhile, also out today (see our review here), is the first person action experiment Hardcore Henry, which features an unhinged (is he ever not) Sharlto Copley. Now many of you will best remember Copley for his astonishing work in Neil Blomkamp’s 2009 Sci-Fi masterpiece District 9, as Wikus. So as a fond reminder of a very grisly and layered film, how about you check out this brilliantly designed ‘Equality for Prawns’ shirt over at Redbubble.com, designed by TwistedTea. Standing up for equality among all, er, species, has never looked so good, though we can’t help but think they should avoid the stereotypical name “prawns”, mind you at least they didn’t go with “Fookin’ Prawns”.
1. Support the Revolution T-Shirt (beltsbucklestees.com, £15)
You may have noticed that yesterday, a little trailer for Gareth Edwards’ upcoming Rogue One: A Star Wars Story hit the Internet like a tester Death Star blast. And if you haven’t had chance to watch the chills inducing teaser footage yet, you can do so right here. Anyway, if those images of the iconic Stormtroopers and Star Destroyers have struck a nerve, march on over to Beltsbucklestess.com and show your support for the Empire, with this WW2 Propaganda styled shirt. Who knows it may save your life, come the imperial inspections.
Be sure to keep an eye out every week for our pick of the top 3 funnest, funkiest and freakiest finds in our online merchandising explorations!
