Starbucks may not be canon but that doesn’t mean the coffee company isn’t continuing to expand throughout the Star Wars galaxy.
In what is becoming an annual release associated with May the Fourth, three new Star Wars Starbucks Been There series mugs are being added to the current stable of planets. This year Coruscant, Jakku, and Mustafar join the previous nine editions (Hoth, Dagobah, Bespin, Endor, Tatooine, Batuu, Naboo, Nevarro, and Ahch-To).
Each mug is decorated with illustrations of characters and scenes from each location in a three-tone color palette.
Coruscant is purple, muted-grapefruit, and gray with images from the prequel trilogy including a young Anakin Skywalker standing before the Jedi Council, Emperor Palpatine in the Senate, Mace Windu with his purple lightsaber, and the tense exchange between Anakin and Padme Amidala in her quarters overlooking the skyline.
Jakku is a light yellow, soft peach, and light sky blue combination. It highlights Rey from The Force Awakens in multiple ways. It also includes BB-8, Finn, the Millenium Falcon, First Order TIE-fighters, and the Imperial wreckage of a crashed Imperial Star Destroyer.
Mustafar brings the heat with gray, dark orange, and a lighter orange to help mimic the lava. The visuals include Darth Vader, Vader’s Castle, Obi-Wan Kenobi dueling Anakin Skywalker, and two of Kenobi’s most poignant lines: “You were the chosen one,” and “I have the high ground.” It is the most intense mug yet and with a good chance the art is hotter than the coffee in the mug.
All three of the new mugs will be available on shopDisney on May 4 at 8 am PT.
