Hasta La Gadget!

There are two things we really love here at Gearlog: Star Wars, and ThinkGeek. The two have come together to release two new products for the 30th anniversary of Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back. As of today, you can be the proud owner of the Wampa Rug, or the shiny C-3PO Bespin Backpack.

The Star Wars Wampa Rug is made of high-quality synthetic fur, has a plush pillow head, vinyl claws and measures 62-inches long by 30-inches wide. It sells for $99.99. Here’s the ThinkGeek’s description:

As you may recall from Empire, before Luke was preserved inside a dead tauntaun he had a fight with a hideous Wampa snow beast in the mountain caves of Hoth. Now you can catch your own Wampa and take him home to decorate your swank bachelor pad. The Star Wars fangirls will love the high-quality synthetic fur, plush pillow head and fearsome claws.

If you already bought a new backpack for this school year, it’s time to throw that one in the closet and grab the C-3PO Bespin Backpack. The pack is based on the classic scene from Empire Strikes Back when C-3PO was blown apart by stormtroopers. He’s carried around on the wookie’s back before Chewy is able to put him back together. The backpack features light-up flickering eyes, and is made from golden leatherette material. 

But, it’s not just a backpack — it comes with all the appendages to easily assemble a complete 3-foot-tall droid. Luckily, it’s not that large in backpack form; it measures 22-inches high, by 13-inches wide, by 8 inches deep. It sells for $59.99.

If you’re in the market for another space-related product, ThinkGeek recently released the Star Trek pizza cutter.
