Tacticall Alpha 1 - Knife & Bottle Opener Case For iPhone 5

Tacticall Alpha 1 - Knife & Bottle Opener Case For iPhone 5

Imagine the following: you've found yourself in a new home. You've just moved in, and you have boxes stacked to the ceiling which you're trying to unpack all by yourself. The only things currently not in boxes are your cat and your iPhone. Wait, no -- just the iPhone now. You'd like to start unpacking, but it's like trying to open the blisterpack on a new boxcutter. Everything that could open a box is IN said box. You have two options: teach your cat to use his claws for good or use your TactiCall Alpha 1 iPhone 5 Case. 15 minutes (and several makeshift bandages made out of tape) later, the iPhone case it is. Oh wait. Did we forget? You have a bottle of beer, too, because you had a feeling this would be exhausting. But, oh man. The bottle opener is in one of the many boxes marked "Kitchen." But wait! You can use your TactiCall Alpha 1 iPhone 5 Case to pop the top. Then flip out the Alpha 1's locking, hawkbill-style blade to start tackling those boxes.

Star Wars Ralph McQuarrie Darth Vader Castle Beer Stein

Star Wars Ralph McQuarrie Darth Vader Castle Beer Stein

Star Wars artist Ralph McQuarrie created an unfinished concept painting of Darth Vader's castle. The castle was never shown in the movies — but Lucasfilm commissioned artist Paul Bateman to complete the classic piece. How should we celebrate? Why not raise a pint in this beer stein adorned with the completed work of art? The stein displays an image of Vader's mountaintop headquarters and a portrait of the evil, evil man himself. The stein, with metal flip-up lid and sturdy handle, combines the classic beer-drinking legacy of Earth with the hideout Dark Side villain of a galaxy far, far away. Vader probably has a stein like this one in his castle's den, right next to his action figures and collection of old Kung Fu movies! Product Specifications Beer Stein with "Vader's Castle" art by Ralph McQuarrie Officially licensed Lucasfilm collectible Materials: Ceramic Capacity: 20 ounces Care: Hand wash for longest artwork life

Star Wars Wood Coaster Set

Star Wars Wood Coaster Set

When it's your cantina, people have to play by your rules. For starters, lets get rid of the ugly guy in the band. You know the one. His right eye is a little bigger than his left and we don't like the way he holds his instrument. Maybe we should replace him with a Twi'lek girl who sings. Yeah, that sounds pretty good. But the big rule at our cantina is that you have to use a coaster. Seriously, this bar is a relic, carved from trees imported from Alderaan before the... well, you know. Anyway, we can't get another one so we have to treat it right. This set of four laminated wood coasters features the men of Star Wars: Luke Skywalker (with green lightsaber), Darth Vader, Boba Fett, and Han Solo. (Princess Leia is not part of this set because you never, EVER set your drink on a lady. Ever. You hear?) The non-slip cork back holds your drink steady on the table so you can keep one hand on your beverage and another on your blaster. Be prepared to shoot first.


Star Wars Character Coaster Set

Star Wars Character Coaster Set

Having a dinner party? What better way to mark the seating arrangement than with this set of four Star Wars Character Coasters. Be very, very careful about who you label Darth Vader, though. It could sour the entire evening if you pick the wrong person. Or you can bring them to the office and pick your coaster based on your mood in the morning. Having a cheeky yet cheerful R2-D2 day? Maybe a quick-on-the-trigger Boba Fett day? Let everyone know how you're feeling. Star Wars Character Coasters come in a window box and feature a Stormtrooper, R2-D2, Darth Vader, and Boba Fett. But what's better is that each coaster's character has a second character depicted in reflection. For instance, on R2-D2's lens you can make out Leia recording the message for Obi-Wan. Darth Vader's helmet reflects Obi-Wan with a lightsaber. Boba Fett's helmet reflects an encarbonited Han Solo, and the Stormtrooper is watching the Rebel fighters he's about to (not) shoot. Note: We saw on another site that someone had commented that these would be great accent tiles in a kitchen or bath, to which we say, "UTINNI!" If you go for it, though, you have to send in an action shot, because we must witness the awesome. Product Specifications Set of 4 coasters for the classy Star Wars fan Characters included: Boba Fett, R2-D2, Stormtrooper, Darth Vader Material: Glass with rubber feet Dimensions: 4" x 4" x .25" (thickness) Officially-licensed Lucasfilm collectible
