Chewbacca ‘Pillow Pet’ Is The Stuff of Nightmares

Posted on by

Created in the likeness of everyone’s favorite Wookiee, the Chewbacca Pillow Pet Jumboz Plush (affiliate link) is the perfect companion for a young child that you never want to sleep again. I think it’s the vacant, dead eyes that really do it for me. They should have at least put teddy bear eyes in those sockets. Shoot, anything but those pitch-black, soul-stealing caverns.

The pillow measures approximately 14″ x 14″ x 14″ and unfastens to reveal the 30″ x 30″ stuffed Chewbacca mat/rug you’ve always dreamed of. In pillow form, though he looks like a cross between a Shih Tzu and a Wookiee, with the face of a snub-nosed monkey. My goodness, that face. Did I mention the eyes? I’ll be sleeping with a night light on tonight for sure, I don’t care if my wife makes fun of me.

Admittedly, I just bought one. But I am going to hot glue googly eyes on Chewie the moment he arrives? Yes, and if those googly eyes ever happen to come off and I see him without them, well, let’s just say it won’t be the first time I’ve ever smelled burning Wookiee fur (campfire accident on Kashyyyk – should have listened to Smokey).

A Faux Fur Chewbacca Water Bottle Holder

Posted on by

Because the thought of getting faux fur in your mouth while taking a sip of water is universally appealing, this is the Star Wars Chewbacca Bottle Cooler available for pre-order from Entertainment Earth for $20. Designed to hold 20 to 32 oz. water bottles & 750ml bottles (wait – of liquor?!), the carrier includes “powerful insulation” to keep your bottle as cool as Luke Skywalker on Hoth prior to sleeping inside a tauntaun.

While they call the product a “cooler,” I’d argue it doesn’t actually do any cooling, it just keeps your bottle from warming as quickly as it would without insulation. So it’s technically a slow-warmer or a hairy koozie.

As Chewbacca would say, “GGGWARRRHHWWWW!” Or would this be more of a “WWWRRRRRRGWWWRRRR” situation? Whatever the case, Disney better be giving Chewie a cut of the royalties from these products, because, as Han Solo once warned C-3PO, “It’s not wise to upset a Wookiee.” Wiser words have never been spoken.

Star Wars Icon Lights: The Cute Side of the Force

Posted on by

While the whole internet is abuzz about Baby Yoda these days, he or she doesn’t have the exclusive on Star Wars cuteness. Nope, not at all. And I’m not talking about Porgs or Ewoks either. I’m talking about these adorable Star Wars Icon Lights.

These little tabletop lights feature cute and charming versions of a First Order stormtrooper, Chewbacca, and Rey. I like to imagine an entire Star Wars movie acted out with these guys, big heads, little bodies, and all. Though I struggle to imagine how R2-D2 or BBB-8 would look in this universe.

They’re perfect for adding a splash of light to any Star Wars fan’s desktop or bookshelf, or as a warmly-glowing nightlight. They measure about 5.5″ high, and run on AA batteries (not included.)

All three lights are available from Firebox now, and sell for just $15.99 each.

Tweed Chewbacca Blazer: Laugh It up, Fuzzball

Posted on by

I think the best part about being a Wookiee would be that you never have to wear fancy clothes to anything. All you need is a bandolier and maybe an occasional trip to the groomer. On the other hand, we humans do occasionally have to dress up. At least you can do it geekily if you must. This Star Wars Chewbacca Blazer looks like a version of a jacket my dad had back in the ’80s, complete with elbow patches.

The jacket is made from tweed, the itchy fabric of all the formal affairs I can remember growing up. It has a pair of buttons on the front, pockets with a flap and a left chest welt pocket, and the lining is embellished with headshots of Chewie. Its most noticeable nods to Chewbacca are the rebel crest, and the bandolier detailing on the back.

The jacket is 80% polyester, 20% rayon, and has 100% polyester lining. It is dry clean only, and will set you back $119.99 at ThinkGeek.

Noodle on This Chewbacca Noodle Roll Recipe

Posted on by

If you’re looking for a new food to impress your friends with during a Star Wars marathon, check out this recipe for Chewbacca noodle rolls. These guys were created by Jenn Fujikawa of justJENN Recipes, and they look ferocious and delicious.

They’re spring roll wrappers filled with buckwheat noodles with Chewbacca faces and bandoliers made from cut nori and fish cake. They may not roar, but they will make your stomach growl. Just don’t let Chewie see you eating these or he’ll rip your arms off and dip them into the sweet and spicy chili sauce that Jenn recommends with this dish.

I like how the noodles do a good job of replicating wookiee hair. Either that, or Chewy needs a de-wormer. I’m hoping it’s the former. This will be a fun treat for that Star Wars marathon like I said. It will wow your buddies and everyone will make a joke about how you have way too much time on your hands, but they’ll love it.

I can’t help but wonder if this is what a wookiee fetus looks like. Gross, I know, but check it out. The arms and legs aren’t formed yet, plus it’s transparent. But wookiees aren’t born with bandoliers. They have to earn them.
