This Star Wars t-shirt shows the blockbuster's logo, and X-Wing Fighters chasing TIE Fighters in a galaxy far, far away. In the 1977 classic Star Wars, the galaxy was in a period of civil war. Luke Skywalker joined forces with the Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi, the cocky pilot Han Solo, the Wookiee Chewbacca, and the droids R2-D2 and C-3PO to save the galaxy from the Galactic Empire's world-destroying battle station, while also attempting to rescue Princess Leia from the mysterious Darth Vader.
