Star Wars Bookends – May the force hold up your books

I can’t really say if this truly counts as a gadget or not, but I really don’t care. And I can’t really say that I’m the biggest Star Wars fan out there, but I do love the movies. So when someone like me runs across something like this, I have to share it with the world.

The Star Wars Shop has listed these truly amazing “Star Wars Trash Compactor Bookends” for pre-order. Here’s what the Star Wars Shop describes them as:

“One thing’s for sure. We’re all gonna be a lot thinner!” – Han Solo. The valiant rescue of Princess Leia takes a turn for the worse when our heroes evade on-rushing stormtroopers by jumping down a garbage shoot. The situation turns grim when the dianoga shows up and the garbage compactor’s walls begin to close in! Cast in high quality poly-stone and hand painted to exacting standards. Each is numbered and comes complete with matching certificate of authenticity. This limited edition measures 6 inches deep, 12 inches Wide and 7.5 inches high, and are well suited for DVD?s, books and graphic novels, and more. The modular aspect also allows the consumer to display them in a number of ways.

At $190 I don’t think I’ll be getting myself one. However, this would be a great gift for the purest Star Wars fanboys in your life. Buy them for someone else, I might.
