Officially Licensed STAR WARS Stormtrooper NFT to Launch on Wax — GeekTyrant
You will find the full press release below with all the details:
Supremacy Games, a Helsinki-based developer and publisher, has teamed up with Tyranno Studios, a team of Web3 pioneers and video game industry veterans to release an officially licensed NFT collection based on Shepperton Design Studio’s Original Stormtrooper.
Do you remember that one space opera movie that took the world by storm and has since given birth to one of the most recognizable and beloved science fiction universes? Remember its most iconic symbol – an imposing army of black and white armored Stormtroopers? Well, now Supremacy Games is giving fans of galaxies far away the chance to own an officially licensed Original Stormtrooper NFT.
On October 27th, Supremacy Games will launch the officially licensed collection on the Ethereum blockchain, offering fans of the space saga a unique opportunity to purchase original Stormtrooper-themed NFTs. The collection will include 10,000 NFTs.
Supremacy Games – a Web3-focused Finnish game developer and publisher founded in 2020 – is the licensee responsible for the Stormtrooper NFT collection and has partnered with Tyranno Studios to handle the initial sales. Holders will be able to use their NFTs in an upcoming game, and gain access to future drops based on another, but unannounced, iconic design by Shepperton.
When the first Stormtroopers were first produced, nearly half a century ago, Web3 technology would have seemed like something out of a Sci-Fi movie, said CEO Jari Pauna of Supremacy. “Now, thanks to our deal with Shepperton Design Studios, fans of the Original Stormtrooper can own their very own digital version of this uniquely recognizable character.
Andrew Ainsworth of Shepperton Design Studios helped create the iconic Stormtrooper costume in 1976 and still reviews all designs for original Stormtrooper products, ensuring high levels of accuracy and authenticity for everything produced under license, including an extensive range products available worldwide. Anyone purchasing this collection of NFTs can therefore be sure that the digital representation is true to the original.
Michael Rubinelli, Chief Gaming Officer at Tyranno Studios, said: “We are excited to help Supremacy and Shepperton Design Studios bring the iconic Original Stormtrooper designs to fans of the franchise and present them in a whole new way to a new demographic. The addition of future utility in an upcoming game makes this decline even more remarkable.”
Tyranno Studios has had tremendous success integrating major brands into Web3. Last year, the company teamed up with Sony Pictures and AMC Theaters to give away official Spider-man: No Way Home NFTs. Many other global brands have joined the WAX blockchain, including Street Fighter, NASCAR and Atari.
