Shot Glass Bandolier: Beware of Drunk Wookiees
If Chewbacca had known about this, he would have had no need to visit a cantina. The 36 Shot Glass Bandolier holds 36 bullet-shaped one-ounce shot glasses, each with their own lock caps. I’ve heard of fighting for you right to party, but this is ridiculous. At least this sort of explains how the whole Nazi-fighting squirrel-riding. Get your own Bandolier for $9.99. Link [via]
Calvin & Hobbes Becomes Chewie & Han
In this perfectly produced homage to childhood obsession, designer Chris Walt created the Chewie & Han t-shirt, in honor of both Calvin & Hobbes and Star Wars. Walt is selling the shirt for $22 through redbubble. The shirt is available both with and without text. I can’t say I was a huge fan of Calvin & Hobbes when I was a kid (I was more of a classic Peanuts, Far Side and Garfield guy), but this design is just too... Continue reading
All of Chewbacca’s Dialogue from Star Wars
The language of the Wookiee is one filled with mysteries. I’m not quite sure where Han Solo found the time to learn the ins-and-outs of the finer linguistics of Chewbacca’s native tongue, but he found a way. I’d personally love to learn the language, but I can’t even generate even the most simple of guttural Wookiee sounds, even with proper instruction. The above image by Savage Chickens illustrates all of Chewie’s dialogue from the original Star Wars film, A New... Continue reading
Because It’s (Almost) Friday: Chewbacca Riding a Squirrel and Battling Nazis
Little known fact: without the aid of the Wookiee army of Kashyyyk, it’s very likely that the U.S. and the allied forces would have been unable to control the Nazi advancement. While the Wookiee’s intervention is still kept out of most textbooks, most historians have come to accept our nasty little secret. But why would Chewbacca choose to help little ole Earth with the Fuhrer’s demise? Let’s put it this way. Before registering on his way through Ellis Island, his... Continue reading
Che-Bacca
Freedom fighting for all Wookiee-kind. It really is a shame that I know how to spell Chewbacca without even thinking, and that I know the home planet of Wookiee’s happens to be Kashyyyk without even so much as opening a new tab in my browser, yet I have to do my research in order to properly spell Che Guevara.

How to Roar Like Chewbacca
Chewbacca’s roar. This is one talent I’ve always wanted, along with the ability to rip off the arms of a droid if they beat me in chess, but that’s another talent for another time. This sexy instructional video features an adorable geek chick unveiling the secrets of the Chewie roar. You’ll need to have some sort of control over your oral muscles, something which I unfortunately don’t seem to have and it would help to share the genes of a... Continue reading
Chewie’s First Day of School
Good luck, big guy! Pay attention, and Oh, don’t rip off anyone’s arms! Why a six-year-old needs a bandoleer we’ll never understand. Link [via]
Star Wars Cuddle Toys Encourage Your Kids To Be Fanboys Early On
Cuddly isn’t exactly a word I would usually use to describe Darth Vader. Sure, he had strong arms and broad shoulders, but that’s beyond the point. He’s just not the cuddling type. Now Chewy on the other hand. He could be my cuddle partner any night. That’s right, I like my Wookies just like I prefer my women; rough and hairy. These Star Wars Cuddle Toys allow me to not only cuddle with Darth AND Chewy, but also Yoda AND... Continue reading
R2-D2 Mailboxes: May the postal service be with you
Such an odd turn of events. R2-D2 finally getting his props as more than just some beeping robot in Star Wars. These R2-D2 themed mailboxes will help celebrate the 30th anniversary of Star Wars this year, and will be spread across America. They might not be a very accurate depiction of the R2 unit, but then again, what could a droid do with your mail? The website labeled on the mailboxes, uspsjedimaster.com, is still a dead link so the project... Continue reading
