Sad Stormtroopers: Photos of Toys That Are Like Us

Written on by jeremy

Toys Are Like Us by Santlov

Santlov poses Star Wars‘ Stormtrooper action figures in utterly banal, vaguely depressing vignettes of everyday life. In other words, the toys are just like us!

Do you see yourself in the dejected Stormtrooper with his pile of losing $1 scratch-off lotto cards? Are you the type of person that bakes a whole tray of cookies, but dines alone? Has a friend ever referred to your “satchel” as a “purse”?

It’s OK. We’ve all been there. And so have the toys. Santlov is currently working on a website of his toy photography. You can follow his sad Stormtroopers on Instagram, and vote for his Art to Take Miami here.

    Dude the stormtrooper with lottery tickets is awesome. Probably the saddest part of my week is when I see these two single elderly guys at the grocery store buying scratcher lotto tickets and scratching them by themselves at the display picnic tables. They always look so sad when they are walking out alone. Man I am such a downer but I know how sad trooper feels.

Hypergraphia is an overwhelming urge to write. It is not itself a disorder. So says Wikipedia.
