Star Wars fan and tangled wire advocate Brian De Vitis managed to have one of the greatest brainstorm ideas ever. Why not take every console I own (all eight of them) and stuff them all into that R2-D2 replica I’ve had sitting around the house.
Well, EVERYONE has the supplies needed for this project. No excuses. Grab your droid and get going. Well? Go 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 R2-D2. Oh, sweet metallic cuddly gods, thank you.
Some taxidermists can really go over the top with their mounted pieces. And a few, I believe are certifiably insane. “WTF Taxidermy” is a LiveJournal community dedicated to the most bizarre of bizarre taxidermy.
Included are such classics as the Flying Jackalope, the R2-D2 Rats and really, just a whole crap load of oddities. The best part is that most of them are available to buy on eBay or Craigslist.
Being crafty is often mislabeled as a purely feminine characteristic. If that’s the case, you might as well dress me up in my best Sunday dress and strap a pair of heels on my feet because I love me some papercraft action. Your favorite neurotic droid has just landed on your project table with this intricate papercraft kit, allowing you to create a pretty accurate model of C-3PO.
C-3PO always seemed a little fruity anyway (him and R2-D2 were unnaturally close). Maybe it was the accent? Or maybe it was the way he was always trying to sneak a peek at Han’s package? Whatever. We won’t judge. We’re equal opportunity. We’re not going to hold his homorobotisism against him. He was just programmed that way. Of course, some people who are uninformed in the nature of robotics believe he has a choice.
Too negligent to monitor a server system? Well, if you’re a huge Star Wars geek like these Japanese fellows, then you can build your own R2-D2 server monitor out of a $3,000 dollar R2-D2 projector. The R2-D2 alerts workers whenever a server goes offline and can even project server status on a wall or ceiling.
Sooner or later, someone will build the C-3PO server monitor assistant to make smart-ass remarks on work etiquette and tasks. Though R2-D2 would be more useful in a work environment, you can’t have one Star Wars bot without it’s counter-part.
