Do people really wear these things?It apparently has enough space to store all your Star Wars encyclopedias and movie guides. Lol. Of course it comes to us via ThinkGeek which is such a great geek website.
This is not a backpack for wee tots since it is just 6 inches shy of being 3 feet long! The pocket depth however is only 12 inches. So you know just how much of this is stuffing and well...fur.
I know a lot of people who love Star Wars, but I don't think any of them would ever actually wear something like this. Though I'm sure it keeps you extra warm on the cold days can you imagine running from a school bus in the pouring rain wearing Chewbacca on your back. You'd be lucky if it dried in time for you to run back out to the bus.
Still it is kind of cute to look at. Look. Not wear. =o)
Another find:
You might also want to check out the Warming Keyboard. "Chase off those chilly morning office blues with our finger-friendly heated keyboard." lol.

"Commemorating the 30th anniversary of the original iconic Star Wars film, this replica of the headstrong astromech droid is a full-function, 628 x 528 pixel web camera that wirelessly transmits real-time video and audio to a computer, and has worldwide remote access capabilities, allowing you to control R2-D2's movements and access the web camera from a laptop or a PC anywhere in the world."In addition to its looks and functionality, the web cam also says 11 different phrases and astromech droid sounds from the original Star Wars soundtrack.
You can also buy an R2D2 Home Theatre System which is pretty wicked awesome if I do say so myself.
"DLP projection system with superior 1,500:1 contrast, and can project movies, TV shows, images, and video games from his radar eye at 1024 x 768 resolution onto walls up to 16 1/2' away, equivalent to an 80" screen."
