‘Mustache Wars’ will no doubt be a hit with the geek and hipster crowds. Combining the awesomeness that is Star Wars with the counter-culture chic of facial hair, this wonderful series by French Copywriter and Creative Director Aurelie Scour puts some scruff on the upper lips of iconic robot heads and helmets. The resulting images are so cool, George Lucas will probably try to add mustaches onto his robot creations in the next re-release of the Star Wars films.
Mustache Wars features the memorable mechanical faces of C-3PO, Darth Vader, R2-D2, Boba Fett and a Stormtrooper. Fans are likely to get into heated debates over which poster is the best, making the name Mustache Wars totally appropriate.
