Based on the original helmet moulds created back in 1976*, these double-walled Stormtrooper ceramic mugs are the perfect pick me ups when you need a Hoth shot of espresso.

Each one holds up to 80ml of your favourite rocket fuel, just the job when you’re a hard-working Imperial stiff facing another difficult day in some far-flung corner of the galaxy; suppressing rebellions, fighting tooled-up teddy bears and being given the runaround around by some plum-voiced pensioner looking for one last big paycheck.

So start the day on a caffeine high, even if it’s downhill from there and the only other shot you’re likely to experience is from a well-aimed blaster.

*Prop maker Andrew Ainsworth of Shepperton Design Studios created the Stormtrooper helmets and armour for the first Star Wars movie, these shot cups are as close as it is possible to get to the authentic film props.

The Original Stromtrooper Espresso Mug Set costs from £14.99 at TheFowndry.com
