Star Wars Stormtrooper Adult Small Mood Light brings a touch of sci-fi to your room

stormtrooper-moodlightWhen it comes to decorating your home, having a central theme to play around with is crucial and important. After all, it makes purchasing new pieces of decoration and bric-a-bracs a whole lot easier, and both family and friends too, will be able to figure out whether you need that mantlepiece or rug whenever they go for a holiday and are looking out for a gift. If you are a huge fan of the Star Wars franchise, then I am quite sure that the £15.00 Star Wars Stormtrooper Adult Small Mood Light would be able to resonate with you right down to the very core.

Never mind that the Stormtrooper is a poorly trained soldier who cannot shoot a blaster to save their lives, this misdirected servant of the Dark Side will be able to add a nice and warm glow to just about any room. Shaped in the same form factor as that of a 3D Stormtrooper helmet, this particular light will be able to emit a soft white light from the base of its head. This makes it ideal for any fan of the Star Wars saga, and the light will not be directly powered via a power outlet, but rather, by a trio of AAA batteries so that it remains highly portable.

The seat covers are $19.99(USD) each, while the floor mats are $14.99 (rear utility)  to $39.99 (front/pair). Mix and match them however you want. Vader and some Stormtroopers always go well together.

Guy Building Giant Star Destroyer

Damn. This dude is building a giant Super Star Dreadnought ‘Assertor’ that is made out of hand-carved styrene and some 3D printing. You know he is serious too. Just look at the state of that room. This is why geeks should not marry until at least age 40. There are just too many cool projects to complete and we make a mess.

Right now, The White Tiger’s project is about 50% complete, but already it looks awesome. This is going to be museum-worthy when it is finished. You can see his Starship Enterprise model in the lower left, to give you an even better idea of the size.

Of course, he didn’t just create this from memory – he got a good head start thanks to this 3D model by Ansel Hsiao (aka Fractal Sponge).

Star Destroyers rock. As long they are not pointed at you anyway.

Long Lost LaserDisc Found, Features Behind-The-Scenes Star Wars Footage

"Through the Force, things you will see. The future, the past, old friends long gone." Someone has just found a disc full of behind the scenes, never before seen footage from Return of the Jedi. Two clips were uploaded to a Facebook page yesterday: a silent 59 seconds of R2-D2 repairing Luke’s X-Wing on Dagobah, and a minute of Frank Oz getting fed lines and doing Yoda like only he can (which, in the end, sounds like quite a strain on the ol’ vocal cords).

You Won’t Notice Wookiee or Ewok Hair on This Chewbacca Sofa

Fans of the giant furballs known as Wookiees are going to love this Chewbacca Sofa. It comes from the design team at New York based Sentient. No Wookiees were actually harmed or made bald in the making of this hairy home decor.

It’s not technically a Wookiee sofa, but we know that hair when we see it. The base is made from reclaimed American oak boards, and the thing is just covered in Wookiee hide. Okay, it is actually long wool Icelandic sheepskin, which is super soft and will keep you warm. Each sofa is made to order and it was designed by Nersi Nasseri.

If I had this sofa, I would rig it so that a Wookiee roared every time someone sits down. Don’t let Chewie see this!

R2-D2 “Talking” Piggy Bank: 1st National Bank of Droid

This R2-D2 bank is your new astromech savings and loan unit. R2 will help you save your money. Plus, he’ll talk your ear off each time you drop in some coins with his usual bleeps and whirrs – which in this case translates into, “You are one step closer to affording that new life-sized Stormtrooper toy, Master”.
r2bankmagnify

As far as I’m concerned, this little droid beats any federal stimulus package. He measures 7 1/2″ high x 5 1/10″ wide x 4″ deep, and uses 3 LR44 batteries, which are included so you don’t have to spend any of your hard-earned change to get him beeping.

The sound quality seems pretty much on the money. The R2-D2 bank will cost you $21.99(USD) from ThinkGeek. Think of it as a long term investment as R2 will help you save way more than that. Is there anything this droid can’t do?  3PO seems so useless. You never hear about him helping anyone, unless they need some language translated or a lesson in etiquette.

Boba Fett Green Sunglasses Good for Sunny Days on Tatooine

If you want to be cool like Boba Fett, it isn’t easy. You need an awesome ship, a bounty hunting license, some really rad armor and a backpack with jets. You are also going to want a pair of cool sunglasses for when you are sitting on the beach relaxing after a tough job.

These awesomely Boba Fetted-out sunglasses match Fett’s Mandalorian armor with an overall green color scheme, along with some yellow and burgundy accents. They even have Fett’s Mandalorian and bounty hunter symbols all over. Fett may be tough, but even he needs UV protection from Tatooine’s dueling suns. These stylish sunglasses have it.

These cool shades are only $19.99(USD) from Entertainment Earth. Because a bounty hunter needs to look good both on and off the job.
