With Easter coming soon, you may be looking for some cool candy and gifts to give the geeks on your list. They would love to find the Easter bunny left this behind.

Check out this awesome Stormtrooper Easter bunny. I say it’s about time we changed the whole Easter bunny thing and I can’t think of anything better than a Bunnytrooper.
Wait, that’s no moon under his arm. It’s an egg-shaped space station! Forget chocolate and your dumb Easter cards. Forget all that fake plastic grass and Easter egg hunts. Let’s make Easter all about Star Wars toys and the almighty Stormtrooper bunny can be our mascot. We all need one more reason to dress up in our Star Wars garb.
