“That’s No Robot Monster” for the Rancho Obi-Wan Fundraiser
Our Death Star entry into the Rancho Obi-Wan fundraising project entitled “That’s No Robot Monster…”
We couldn’t be prouder to help support our friends at the non-profit Star Wars museum, Rancho Obi-Wan. This year’s fundraiser is an amazing collection of creativity. Thirty artists were presented with a resin replica Death Star model and asked to do something creative and fun with it. The results are a diverse collection of clever and artistic creations, inspired by Star Wars and beyond. Our entry is titled, “That’s no Robot Monster” and combines the very aptly shaped Death Star with our love of campy 50’s b-movie sci-fi like “Robot Monster!”
From the official Rancho Obi-Wan page:
From an illuminated Dagobah garden to an exploded Darth Vader mask, from a Fabergé-style egg to a dianoga’s lair, and from R2-D2 to Scarif’s Citadel Tower from Star Wars: Rogue One, artists have turned 30 10-inch high resin replicas of the Death Star into ingenious and in some cases automated works of art in a fundraiser for Rancho Obi-Wan
The auction is being run by Prop Store, the well-known London and Los Angeles based seller of pop culture memorabilia. The online sale runs from Feb. 10 to Feb. 21, 2020 and will support Rancho’s mission of using its collection to inspire others to be imaginative, creative, learn new crafts and gain knowledge.
Steve Sansweet, the owner/curator of Rancho Obi-Wan, says: “We couldn’t be more thrilled with the Death Star replicas that Star Wars artists and fans have contributed to our auction following in the tradition of artists’ reworking of Darth Vader, Stormtrooper and other helmets. We also want to thank our friends at Prop Store for donating their time and bandwidth to run the auction.”
