On Star Wars Day 2014, Vans launched its new line of Star Wars sneakers. Drawing inspiration from the Star Wars galaxy, Vans has created custom prints incorporating timeless Star Wars characters into new and heritage Vans designs. To celebrate this release Journeys has teamed up with Funko to produce limited edition Star Wars x Vans vinyl figures! This blind box series includes Darth Vader and Boba Fett sporting Van’s signature classic checker slip-on sneakers and holding a skateboard.
Aren’t these figures awesome? But there’s a catch! The only way to get one of these stylized Star Wars vinyl figures is by pre-ordering a pair of these new Star Wars x Vans sneakers from Journeys here. For each pair of sneakers you buy you randomly get one of the two 6" figures seen here (while supplies last). The Blot’s still trying to find out more information on these Journeys Exclusive Star Wars x Vans vinyl figures, like their run size or if they will ever be available for purchase individually. The Blot really wants this Boba Fett figure, but unfortunately none of these Star Wars sneakers come in my size! What’s a toy collector to do!?!
