Screw Titanic! Own a piece of an engineering marvel straight from the depths of fake history

Sure, you may be able to place your slop order at Applebee’s speaking Huttese—and boy, do dates love it when you do that—but elite Star Wars fandom? That would be acquiring one of these super-rare specplates salvaged from Palpatine’s fleet of Imperial Star Destroyers as they made their way to that giant scrap yard in the sky.

Limited to a mere 25 units, the 36-inch by 14-inch metal badges were reportedly bolted to the bulkheads of the gargantuan triangle-shaped rebel crushers on the day they were christened. Own one, and you can forever relive that day way back in 19 BBY when Imperial engineer Lira Wessex broke a bottle of space bubbly over the Destroyer’s hood and kickstarted the ol’ solar ionization reactor.

Measuring 43-inches wide by 24-inches when framed, the specplates are crafted in 1/8-inch aluminum and were designed by Naval architects in Seattle…um, make that Imperial metalworkers in a galaxy far, far away. The best part? They’re up for pre-order today for the bargain price of just $1,995. We know what you’re thinking: Yes, you should definitely buy a few.
