Movie fans, rejoice: 3D printing technology will soon make it possible to create all sorts of ultra-geeky merchandise! The proof is in this amazing foosball table in Star Wars colors that would make even George Lucas jealous...
A "Death Star"-style football table
For a true fan of the Saga, a Darth Vader figurine is great, but a Star Wars table football with two armies of Stormtroopers facing each other is even better! For a die-hard fan of the first trilogy, this custom-made football table is a magnificent tribute to a science fiction masterpiece. The only downside is that one might wonder if the accuracy of Stormtrooper players when shooting the ball is as poor as that of their life-size counterparts when it comes to targeting Rebels...
3D technology at the service of the mini round ball
Once again, 3D printing has made its mark. It seems that the future of table football is linked to that of 3D printing. Of course, technology alone is not enough to create a Star Wars table football of this quality. It takes talent, and Thingiverse designer Christophe Zuk, the father of the concept, clearly has plenty of it. It's a safe bet that this 3D printer virtuoso will repeat the experience, and this time with another film. We could easily imagine a Star Trek Enterprise vs. Klingon foosball table!
A quick thought: why don't foosball table manufacturers offer player poles featuring movie characters?
