Got this info from the R2Builders list, but it's so bizarre, it's worth sharing. Check out the R2-D2 Soy Sauce bottle, that dispenses via its holoprojector: http://www.strapya-world.com/products/23774.html
QUOTE(www.strapya-world.com) Not only a small R2-D2 object. Ever dreamed to go space journy with your R2?? Unfortunately, such a dream can't be true at the moment. But now this tiny R2D2 can serve you soy source by your one-hand little move, leaning the R2 body a little to put appropriate soy source on Chinese or Japanese fried rice Small Bottle High Quality! You should be fascinated by the perfect body of this R2 unit at a glance. This is R2's miniature but the design and color is exactly the same as the Real R2.

Great topic Matt! :lol:
Which reminds me I was going to post about this little beauty that Sarah's brother sent her for her birthday. :vader: QUOTE Duck Fadar If you only knew the power of the Duck side!

That is so cool Matt :P
And yes, this is a great forum topic! How about a matching pepper-grinder to go with that soy sauce dispenser :D QUOTE Have you ever sat in front of a steaming steak and muttered to yourself, "You know Francis, that steak needs some pepper and an R2-D2 pepper mill would be just the right tool to crush those peppercorns!"

Weird... but not quite as weird as that Chupa Chup Jar Jar toy that had a hard candy tounge that you could suck. Very strange.
Almost as weird as the 1:1 Jar Jar that is a tool of the Devil! :P DON'T CLICK THAT LINK IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED! |

Interesting find Callum...."strange" is putting it politely. :blink:
On the more benign side, for the Vader fan who has everything, ThinkGeek has Sith Slippers: http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/plush/94e9? (IMG:http://www.thinkgeek.com/images/products/zoom/starwars_slippers.jpg) |

He swung his saber when you hit the button on the front... that action also made a Chupa Chup in the top of his head spin (it saves energy, you know). Underoos. Weird. |

It's Samurai Vader! Complete with stylised cog on his forehead!
Original source translated from Japanese (Link's too long to post in full) :P And the SW.com article: http://www.starwars.com/collecting/news/mi...ws20070213.html (IMG:http://www.attuworld.com/files/attuworld/images/darthvadersan.preview.jpg) And that Jar Jar lollipop is disturbing... |

Hee, I just spotted a Samurai Stormie the other day...

Umbrella Lightsaber! With a red 'blade' cover for when it's not in use!
QUOTE A regular lightsaber is normally used to attack someone but put the word "rain" in front of it and you have an umbrella. Just an umbrella. All is not lost however, since sturdy umbrellas may also be used to attack man and beast when the occasion beckons. http://mgrsti3030s.seamlesstech.biz/templa...subFolderID=179 (IMG:http://mgrsti3030s.seamlesstech.biz/Merchant/starwars_umbrella.jpg) |

Star Wars meets Transformers! Darth Vader transforms into the Death Star :P
QUOTE The Sith Lord strikes with his lightsaber and blaster, then uses secret morphing technology to change into the Death Star battle station and launch a devastating attack on the heroic Rebels. http://www.etoys.com/genProduct.html/PID/4...h4aa4C5B8635EF9 (IMG:http://images.etoys.com/g/product/282/282604/282604_1001_LP.jpg) |

Here's an interesting one from Germany - a wooden Darth Vader nutcracker.
QUOTE "..Steinbach of Germany has created an all new 2005 nutcracker edition of Darth Vader, handmade from wood in the centuries-old Steinbach tradition. Standing 18.5" tall, this stunning piece of craftsmanship is one of the few examples of functional Star Wars art available today, and would make a fantastic display piece year-round. Limited to 7,500 pieces..." |

This doesn't quite fit in here, but I didn't see the point in starting a new topic for it. Check out this awesome auction on eBay: Auction #120216319274
That rocks! |
