Get your party on with Star Wars piñatas

August 19th, 2011 by Dunc · 3 Comments

Club Jade tends to keep it simple when we do piñatas (Death Star, Alderaan) so I can’t help but be charmed by these two far more complicated Star Wars ones – the Millennium Falcon and a TIE fighter – by Etsy seller Antonio Sanchez. (via)

Yes, that is Leland Chee.

I had a chance to check out Millennium Falcon: A 3-D Owner’s Guide a few weeks back. I’m not sure how many revelations there are in it, but it’s pretty cool.

They went there: The Millennium Falcon sex toy

March 11th, 2010 by Dunc · 4 Comments

Well, not quite literally. (Twilight we are not.) But there is a notable resemblance between the Form 2 and the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy. (Nothing overtly NSFW at the link, although some of the links there are.)

Looking for something more G-rated? The Brits are at it again with a Luke Skywalker bathrobe.

Kayla Kromer's  Millennium Falcon Bed / Photos by Heather Leah Kennedy/ Used with permisson

The maker of the internet-famous hamburger takes it to hyperspace with the Millennium Falcon Bed. Someone get this woman a spot at the (hopefully inevitable) Celebration V art show, stat!

And the best part? It lights up:

The fandom minute: L/M on Etsy, Star Wars car culture, 70′s school stuff, Palpy’s plummet, and cake!

Luke/Mara wedding cake topper by Hildoom @ EtsyThere really is something for everyone on Etsy. I’m prepping a few posts for next week, and I ran across a Luke and Mara Wedding cake topper. (What a post-ROTJ EU pairing has to do with The Clone Wars I have no idea.) The seller, Hildoom, also has a Yoda Birthday Cake topper for sale.

Cars. Jalopnik is on something of a streak, exploring the hot rod culture of Star Wars and likening the ABT Audi R8 V10 to something that “Anakin’s coke dealer” would drive.

Back to school. StarWars.com takes a look back at the 70′s with retro class cear from Helix.

Lists. Palpatine makes #1 on Sci-Fi Squad’s top ten sci-fi deaths.

Cakes. A neat Millenium Falcon by Da Bombe Desserts.

If only… io9 suggests swapping the writing staffs of The Clone Wars and the The Venture Brothers, which may be the only way to get me to cheerfully watch the former.
