Jun 19 2009Perfect Bookends For Your Star Wars DVDs
These 6" x 12" x 7.5" hand painted Trash Compactor Bookends are available for pre-order (shipping April 2010) from the Star Wars Store for $190. And for those of you that don't do math good, that's almost $100 per side. And speaking of sides, seriously, you have to choose one. It's either me or him. WHAT DO YOU MEAN, 'HIM'?! You're dead to me.
Trash Compactor Bookends Will Hopefully Crush Your Prequel DVDs [gizmodo]
Thanks to 42 y/o undead warlock, who doesn't bring people back from the dead anymore because of insurance issues.

DO LIKE!! Well done young jedi

FAKE!!!!
Thisi si a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max lost his luggage when he went to visit soon to be wife's parents. The parents thought he was a bit of an idiot to begin with, and when the bag arrived it was stuffed full of weird sex toys.

There are so much more Star Wars themed items and products than the amount of crabs in Daisy's poonani. Trust me, I've been there.
In other words, it's an epidemic and it's making me less proud of being a geek. STAR WARS is overused! My god! It's not even cool anymore. I remember in the 90's I used to have all of these star wars themed crap and it was cool.
People need to move on! This is bull.

SHUT DOWN ALL THE GARBAGE MASHERS ON THE DETENTION LEVEL!!!
11. Pew³ - June 19, 2009 6:41 PM
I have these. But on mine Luke Skywalker looks more like Mark Hamill and not like Marc Singer.
Beastmaster!!! Pew Pew Pew
12. Moose Knuckle - June 19, 2009 7:03 PM
I have it too, but on mine the Princess Leia looks more like Carrie Fisher and not Clea Duvall. And you can see her nipples!
Virtuality is gonna suck!

19. Pat - June 19, 2009 7:47 PM
Awesome! (Though pricey.)
20. j - June 19, 2009 7:53 PM
i dont know about the craftmanship in the modeling...
Luke looks like he's just resting, chewie looks like he wants to talk to Luke about his day, Han looks like hes trying to set up a light post or something, and Leah looks like she's gona nag him for doing it wrong
21. trevor - June 19, 2009 9:37 PM
is it me or should they be reversed?
with the flat "walls" on the outsides... so that it looks like they are actually in a garbage masher, and the only thing stopping the walls from crushing them, is the characters valiant efforts, and your starwars dvd collection
anyone with me on this??
22. Urban_Monkey - June 19, 2009 10:28 PM
@21...
Yes I agree...They're doing it wrong.
23. ClaMs - June 19, 2009 11:19 PM
Dude. Bookends. Of a 30 year old film. This is news? Seriously?
24. led panel - June 19, 2009 11:56 PM

25. JJtoob - June 20, 2009 3:14 AM

27. aaron - June 20, 2009 3:45 AM
you're right gw they ARE perfect.
28. Gourmet Vagina - June 20, 2009 9:51 AM
@21: I agree, they would look much better in in the middle of a shelf, pushing books away to the walls, not towards the center like traditional bookends.
Jesus, I have way too much time on my hands.
29. trevor - June 20, 2009 5:13 PM
@28 lmao yeah so do i... clearly.
30. fffp - June 20, 2009 8:48 PM

WARNING , http://efooo.mybrute.com , ADDICTIVE GAME
31. sobored - June 20, 2009 9:25 PM
unfair advantage, chewy is a beast and can be in 2 places at once. So naturally he should be on both sides.

Not that you`ll get respected for it if you have this in your office shelf.
