Star Wars Family Car Decals Bring the Force to Your Ride

Remember those Zombie Family Car Decals? If the Force runs strong in your family, here are some Star Wars-themed family car decals. They’re for people who like Star Wars, have a family, and a car. So… not me. I got the Star Wars thing down, but that’s about it.

My family stopped returning my calls a long time ago, and I haven’t had a car since that one time I sold my Camry for drink-money. After the guy forked over the cash and I handed him the keys, I realized what a mistake I had made. I mean, I had to walk all the way down to the liquor store! I know, I know. I should’ve asked him for a ride.

Star Wars Family Car Decals Are Strong With the Force

These novelty window stickers put a galactic spin on those familiar stick-figure family decals people slap on the backs of their minivans. Instead of boring old Mom, Dad, and the kids, you can represent your family with characters from Star Wars. Because nothing says “happy family” quite like Darth Vader and the children he spent several movies trying to capture.

One of the best-known sets came from ThinkGeek back in 2012. The officially licensed collection included 50 stickers featuring 19 different characters, with options like Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Yoda, and R2-D2. The set originally sold for $14.99.

And the possibilities were endless! Dad can be Darth Vader, Mom can be Princess Leia, and the kids can be Jawas. Sure, that might raise some uncomfortable questions about your family’s genealogy, but hey, this is Star Wars. Complicated family relationships are kind of the whole deal.

A Galactic Upgrade for Your Family Car

The original ThinkGeek decals were designed to stick to clean, flat surfaces, especially car windows. And because they came as individual character stickers, you could arrange your own ridiculous little galactic family. Want to make Chewbacca the family dog? Go for it. Prefer Yoda as Grandpa? That seems appropriate. Just remember that 900 years of wisdom probably comes with a whole lot of unsolicited parenting advice.

Of course, ThinkGeek wasn’t the only source of Star Wars family decals. Other designs offered different character styles and family arrangements, so the whole concept became a fun alternative to the traditional stick-figure lineup.

Personally, I think these things are pretty great. Now if somebody could just get me a new car, a family that returns my calls, and maybe a fully operational Death Star, I’d be all set.

On second thought, forget the Death Star. With my luck, I’d accidentally blow up the liquor store. THE HORROR!
