These are brilliantly illustrated and quite clever.

My personal favorite is P for Porkins.

Star Wars loving break-dancers rejoice. Your product has arrived.

I can’t think of anything I wished I had made more than this.

Vader has a bad reputation as a dead beat dad, which he may have been but he will certainly be happy to appear on a cake for your latest child’s baby shower. Hey don’t say the guy never did anything to help you. That must have been where he was headed to, the shower to welcome some geeks child into the world in fashion.

a del Sol? Oh, man, Vader and his cohorts roll in sweet rides and this is what the republic gets. Oh well. What are you gonna do. I can say this thing has a lot of man hours and just goes to show how resourceful those rebels can be.

Thanks for the tip Matt

Here is a lightsaber that actually works, as an umbrella, of course not as an actual lightsaber.

Have you been looking for a great excuse to carry a fake lightsaber with you everywhere you go? For around forty dollars you can be dry and alone under one of these fantastic umbrellas.

You should probably get one from here.

Well not really.

What you see here is an “EEG” based toy to convince either you or your offspring that the force is with you(or them). This is one of the first mass market toys to use brain to computer control. A simplified version of EEG read by the users headband will help you to raise a ping-pong ball up the tower, which rises 10 inches from the base. The technology was created by NeuroSky and should be implemented in more games before the end of the year.

Star Wars sound effects and audio clips emitted from the base unit “cue you in to progress to the next level (from Padawan to Jedi) or when to move the sphere up or down to keep challenging yourself,” Adler says.

It looks like you will be able to get your heads on this thing from Uncle Milton for about $100 this fall. Untill then may the simplified force be with you.

I seriously wonder about the free time some people have. This is insane and how many are owned by one single person? How many times did it take to get this right?  And why can’t I stop watching?
