How are these not pushed over to Thinkgeek.com ? They specialize in amazing stuff like this. They have a wompa rug, a tauntaun sleeping bag and Han Solo carbonite ice cube trays! Why not a carbonite fridge?

I saw a “cockpit sunshade” in the Sky Mall magazine a few months ago. It was the Millenium Falcon cockpit from A New Hope, although you probably already knew / heard that.

Hi I stumbled upon you’re blog while doing research on my marketing thesis about the SW franchise. Very cool stuff indeed. It sounds for a SW geek this was certainly an opportunity of a life time. A vivid memory was brought up for me when you mentioned your team designing some of the retail marketing gadgets for pepsi. I remember around 98-99 when prequel buzz was abound a local gas station had an R2-D2 ice chest that served, thats right, cans of pepsi product. I remember thinking how awesome it was to be living at a time when Star Wars was coming back in force (pardon the pun). I had just graduated high-school and my senior year was marked by the re-release of the original trilogy, which was the first time anyone from my generation had seen a Star Wars film on the big screen. Anyway was wondering if that cool little R2 canister was your teams’ design…
