Officially licensed Star Wars lightsaber and blaster accessories for the Wii

Posted in Wii by Conner Flynn on June 26th, 2009

Officially licensed Star Wars lightsaber and blaster accessories for the WiiWe know that you like to get all nerdy with your Wii on occasion and swing around a lightsaber while your little dog looks on in his Princess Leia slave costume. Well, if you’re going to nerd out, you may as well do it with officially licensed Wii accessories.

We’ve seen our share of Wii lightsabers, but they just aren’t endorsed by Lucas’ money machine. This one is. This lightsaber glows, and Bensussen Deutsch & Associates have plans for a matching blaster too. The accessories don’t make room for MotionPlus, but so what. They’ll be shipping with Star Wars - The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes, a game that doesn’t support MotionPlus.

Darth Vader Unmasked Mimobot Flash Drive

Posted in Star Wars by Conner Flynn on June 10th, 2009

Darth Vader Unmasked Mimobot Flash DriveMimoco is offering up their latest clever Star Wars mimobot flash drives. They are all from the dark side. Both Darth Vader and Clone Rex have removable masks, and one out of six Vaders will have the scarred-up, pale and pudgy face underneath that we all know and love from Return of the Jedi.

Pray you do not get the whiny young Anakin version(As played by Hayden Christenson). That’s the true path to the darkside….And bad acting.

Clone Trooper Walkie Talkie watch set

Posted in Star Wars by Conner Flynn on January 26th, 2009

Clone Trooper Walkie Talkie watch setSo, you’re a kid who’s into Star Wars. I apologize on Lucas’ behalf for a crappy second trilogy. You deserved better. But hey, if you’re into it you obviously don’t ask for much. Might as well enjoy these crappy Clone Trooper Walkie Talkie watches that are just as sub-par as the latest movies. They’re great for communicating with your fellow trooper while on your various Jedi killing missions.

There’s no word on what kind of range you’ll get with these. Probably two feet. You’ll have these on your wrists while you are yelling at each other and giving away your plans. A set of two will cost you $29.99. And look, they match your Clone Trooper laptop.

iPod nano 4G leaked, no logo

Posted in iPod by Conner Flynn on September 5th, 2008

iPod nano 4G leaked, no logoLooks like real honest to God iPod Nano 4G hardware, but you’ll notice it has no Apple logo and it probably is equipped with non-Apple software inside. Call Anakin Skywalker and the rest of the Jedi council. Begun, the clone wars have. Those who don’t visit gadget sites are doomed to buy this thing. You’ll also notice that this clone is thin as an anorexic supermodel, which has us hoping that the Nano 4G will keep its slim form.

Star Wars: Clone Wars iSpeaker

Posted in Star Wars by Conner Flynn on September 1st, 2008

Star Wars: Clone Wars iSpeakerYou might have noticed that the Clone Wars movie got some pretty bad reviews. So it’s not really a surprise that they’ve been pushing all kinds of Clone Wars merchandise in an attempt to make some extra money so George Lucas can get that new flannel shirt he’s had his eye on.

This is the ISpeaker. It uses a flat panel speaker and is compatible with iPod, iPhone and other MP3 players. It features Captain Rex from the Clone Wars and seems almost as lame as the movie. Small kids might like it, but your average Star Wars geek will probaly want to pass. It’s powered by 4 AAA batteries. The Clone Wars iSpeaker is available for $19. The lightsaber stylus for the DS is only $7.99 and a lot cooler.

Star Wars Clone Wars MP3 players

Posted in Star Wars by Conner Flynn on August 24th, 2008

Star Wars Clone Wars MP3 playersHere’s something for the three or four of you who still love Star Wars after seeing the new Clone Wars movie. The Darth Vader MP3 Player we showed you awhile back had a pretty small storage capacity. This new Clone Wars device is still lacking in that department, but at least you’ll have a bit more space with its built-in 1GB of memory.

It features 3 different face plates so you can customize the imagery according to your various geek moods and comes with Music Express computer software. It will cost you $59.99 and should keep you without a woman in your life for the foreseeable future.

Star Wars MP3 player: May The Force Rock You

Star Wars MP3 player: May The Force Rock You
So you’re chillin’ with your Clone Trooper laptop, wearing your flannel like George Lucas and waiting in line for that new Ewok action figure that has a big release today. But what you need is some tunes.

This is what you want right here. A Star Wars mp3 player. The front features a close-up of Darth Vader with glowing red eyes, which is cool, but sadly, this MP3 player only features 512MB of memory and a display that looks like it’s 30 years old. It does come with a built-in radio however. It’s currently out of stock at Amazon.co.uk, but ForbiddenPlanet will release a similar product shown above for about $80 US at the end of the month.

Star Wars Clone Trooper laptop

Star Wars Clone Trooper laptop
If Phantom Menace, Attack of The Clones and Revenge of the Sith didn’t ruin Star Wars for you the new Clone Wars probably will. To help celebrate George Lucas throwing his own feces on screen once again, comes this Clone Trooper laptop for the kids.

Nice case, and a typical keyboard lets your little Jedi play boring learning games on its monochrome screen. It’s probably a good case to use for a mod, or maybe you could take the front off and have yourself a half mask, but that’s about it for $39.99.

Digital Escape acts like a virtual reality drug

Digital Escape acts like a virtual reality drug
The future isn’t all cuddly robots and sunshine my friends. In fact, some would say it’s going to be a nightmare. And I ain’t just talking about a future where Regis Philbin’s corpse gets re-animated and feeds on brains, though surely that’s part of it. It may be downright nasty and apocalyptic.

That’s where the latest concept by frogDesign comes in. It’s called A Digital Escape, and would allow the wearer to compliment their personal reality with such things as exclusive visuals, sounds and even smells. Frogdesign describes it as a way to, “live with the troubles we’ve already caused,” in our world.

A lightsaber at every corner…just in case

Posted in movies by Nino Marchetti on March 27th, 2008

lightsabers.jpgIn case you missed the announcement at our sister blog PopTherapy, we’ll tell you here: the entire Star Wars saga is set to be aired together, for the first time, on Spike TV in April. If you feel the need to gear up for it and perhaps cut down some evil Sith along the way, you can always visit this emergency glass lightsaber storage case.

You can, of course, build your own lightsaber. It is probably just easier though to break the glass, whip of a glowing light stick of death and take on your enemies on the sidewalk in the light of day.
