Nikko Home Electronics are making an electronic R2-D2 that does everything you’d expect from an electronic device, except brew you coffee. Though I’m sure that’ll make the next release.
Crack your nuts they will
You may have seen the Darth Vader nutcracker before, but did you know there’s a Yoda one? They both kinda creep me out, though. Nutcrackers are scary!
On Threadless…
Speaking of the tonguesicle…
Sexually Suggestive Star Wars Candy To Be Marketed To Children! One can always count on Landover Baptist (yes, it’s a parody site) for the lulz.
My eyes! My eyes!
Truly awful Star Wars merchandise. All of which predate the Jar-Jar tonguesicle, and one which horrifies even me. Can you guess which it is? (I know you can.)
You sunk my Star Destroyer!
Why is it that I know about LEGO statues before they’re even in production, yet this is the first I’ve heard of Star Wars Battleship? Paula, how old is this thing?
Giant Legos will eat your soul
LEGO Star Wars Maquettes: Because Gentle Giant really, really loves making me say “What the f-”
That is to say, the state of merchandise gets even more ridiculous every time I look.
Another reason to go to Disney World

Check out the Darth Revan figure
From the console game Knights of the Old Republic emerges the Hasbro Fan Choice figure, Darth Revan. ToyFare #114 gives fans their first look at the Sith Lord’s figure mold.
The figure looks great! Between this and the Republic Commando figures, we can can only hope Hasbro picks up the popularity of these expanded universe and gives us more – maybe a KOTOR wave, with Bastila Shan and others?
