R2-D2 Hoodie Can Turn From Awesome To Creepo At The Pull Of A Zipper

By David Ponce on 10/19/12 • Leave a comment!

We’re happy to see the above R2-D2 hoodie for men, especially given last week’s artoo dress. It looks pretty good, is made from 60% cotton and 40% polyester and comes in sizes Small to XXL (although Medium and XXL are currently sold out). Where things start to go wrong however is in its ability to be zipped up past your mouth, and past your eyes, engulfing your entire head. Sure, there are mesh panels so you can see and breathe, but we recon all you’ll see is people crossing the street to walk on the opposite side of it if you choose to wear it that way. But hey, it’s eccentric people like that that make the world more entertaining to live in, so who are we to judge? If you want one, it’s $70.

R2-D2 Dress from Black Milk Clothing Will Make You Look Va-Va-Voom!

R2-D2 Dress from Black Milk Clothing

Some people express their love for their favorite movie or comic book franchise by dressing up as their favorite characters. (In short, by doing cosplays.) Those who feel like they can’t pull that off turn to themed clothing instead, like this ultra-sexy R2-D2 dress from Black Milk that’s officially licensed by Lucasfilm.

Male fans will have to wait for another clothing company to churn out Star Wars-related stuff, but I have a feeling they’ll be able to appreciate this hot number just as much as the female ones. For obvious reasons.

Hit the break for a video teasing the rest of Black Milk’s range of Star Wars clothing.

Angry Birds: Star Wars. Let’s Keep Milking While The Milking Is Good

By David Ponce on 10/10/12 • Leave a comment!

Angry Birds has made Rovio a lot of money. Now, Rovio wants to make even more with this franchise by releasing a Star Wars edition. Yeah… Listen, we sort of understand why Rovio would want to get while the getting is good. Wouldn’t you? And while Bad Piggies, the company’s first game after Angry Birds, seems to be doing well in the App Store, we… really hate it. We’re not sure how enduring its success will be, but we suspect that the current sales pace is partly due to people’s high expectations. Then again, it’s not that the game itself is bad, we just don’t really like that gameplay style. It’s a personal preference, but we feel it lacks the simplicity that made Angry Birds so addictive.

In any case, opinions aside, Angry Birds: Star Wars will be available for download November 8th. The game features brand new gameplay, and there is talk of a massive retail launch set to coincide with it.

Artist Makes Some Kickass Star Wars Terrariums

By David Ponce on 09/26/12 • 1 Comment

Seems like today is Star Wars day (considering this post if you came here directly), but we don’t mind because hey, we love the films. What you see above is a 5 inch terrarium featuring none other than Yoda, chillin on Tatooine. One Tony Larson makes these and sells them from his Etsy shop. He doesn’t only make Yoda ones, but other characters like Artoo and an Ewok. They contain no live plants, meaning you can just hang these somewhere or put them on display and not worry about watering or anything. He sells them for roughly $100 a piece, with a 3 to 4 week turnaround since they’re made to order. So… either buy, or buy not. There is no try. (We had to, sorry.)

Hit the jump for a few more pictures and links, where you’ll discover that Tony doesn’t limit his terrarium creation skills to Star Wars items but a variety of others for you to discover.

Seiko Japan Launches Limited Edition Star Wars Watches

By Radu Iosif on 09/26/12 • Leave a comment!

The Star Wars saga is perhaps the cult classic amongst geeks, so it’s no surprise to see products like the above watch making the rounds whenever they’re announced. Seiko Japan is putting out a series of wristwatches featuring various characters from the films. The one in the picture is the Seiko Brightz R2-D2, and features a 300dpi screen that can display scenes from the movies. Other watches are more traditional looking and come in flavours of Darth Maul, Darth Vader and Stormtroopers. Depending on the model, there will be between 500 and 1,500 of each made. With limited supply comes of course the fancy prices: around $1,800, although now that they’re already on the market, you can find some on eBay for less.

May The Force Be Sweet, Cold And Melty

By David Ponce on 09/10/12 • Leave a comment!

George Lucas has a lot of money. And every time a Star Wars trinket gets sold, he gets some more. Such is life. We don’t think the above Lightsaber Ice Pop Makers are any different, but we’re willing to live with the idea because they’re just that cool. They’re cool… get it? No… ok, moving on. The lightsabers have an LED that will light up your frozen juice “blade”, increasing their realism and egging you on to do more than just eat them. Yeah, that’ll make some very messy and very tasty food fights because let’s face it, that’s what you’re going to do once you buy them. The blade is 6 inches long, and the hilt is 5. One purchase comes with 4 hilts, making 4 popsicles, obviously.

It’s $35 and coming this fall at Thinkgeek.

Star Wars R2D2 Lunch Bag is the Coolest Way to Carry Your Grub

By Hazel Chua on 08/29/12 • Leave a comment!

R2D2 Lunch Bag

School can sometimes be a drag. I think that’s something we all know based on experience. One thing I remember to get rid of the school-day blues back when I was still a student though, was bring something that made me happy every day to school. Sometimes it was a bottle of my favorite perfume, sometimes it was my favorite pin. It might sound silly, but it actually worked.

So maybe you could do what I did for your kids who are currently still in school, but in a more consistent and geeky manner. How? By letting them bring their lunch in this uber-cool Star Wars R2D2 Lunch Bag!

It looks awesome, it lights up, and it even makes fun beeping sounds once you push the button. It’s made from 100% PVC and is BPA free, so you don’t have to worry about food safety. It’s also padded with superior quality polyethylene foam insulation so your grub stays fresh.

The Star Wars R2D2 Lunch Bag is available for $19.99.

By David Ponce on 08/29/12 • 1 Comment

Oh that’s a terrible headline, we know. But the Star Wars Death Star Tea Infuser definitely isn’t terrible. It’s a $20 expense that will make you the coolest dude at your next tea party. Because that’s what all the cool kids are doing these days. Tea parties.
