1997 Star Tribune

Landmark Creations’ Inflatable Figures Take Center Stage Worldwide
In a 1997 feature by the Star Tribune, Landmark Creations was recognized for its rapid growth and unique impact in the inflatable industry, creating everything from towering Darth Vader replicas for movie premieres to giant promotional crabs.
Highlighted projects included a 35-foot Darth Vader commissioned for the "Star Wars" Pacific Rim release and a 70-foot inflatable light screen used as a theatrical backdrop.
Founded by Tom Meacham, Landmark Creations has grown into a leader in large-scale inflatable advertising, helping brands capture attention at events around the globe with custom, high-impact inflatables.
