Star Wars Lightsaber Candlestick

 

The Star Wars trilogy was one of the most celebrated movies of all time. After grossing millions in the box office, the movie continues to make profits from the sales of Star Wars memorabilia and souvenirs. There has been Darth Vader’s mask, glowing light sabers for children and plush toys of the Master Yoda. To add to the list of Star Wars merchandise is the Star Wars Lightsaber Candlestick.

The Light Saber Candlestick is eight and a half inches long, including the candle. It is almost the same length as the Light Sabers used in the movie. In a pack that costs $39.99; the Star Wars Lightsaber Candlestick also comes with three red candles. Once those three are burnt out, you could always hit the stores and purchase any regular taper candles. You could also select blue candles instead to create a blue laser sword which Luke Skywalker used.

Besides illuminating your Star Wars themed party, the Star Wars Lightsaber Candlestick is also suitable for romantic dinner with a date that is a Star Wars fan. After the dinner, you could even detach the base from the candlestick and you will have a Light Saber to play with. However, you should be careful not to drop wax all over your carpets and furniture when you engage your date in battle.

The Star Wars Lightsaber Candlestick is due to hit the markets in early December. It would make the perfect holiday gift for the Star Wars fans or those who just enjoy having unique decorative items in their homes.

R2-D2 Bike Helmet

 

If you happen to be a Star Wars fanatic, you will surely be impressed with the R2-D2 bike helmet. Jenn Hall, a Star Wars fan herself, designed and created this catchy bike helmet from a normal bike helmet.

Sparked by her passion for Star Wars gadgets, Jenn turned her motorcycle helmet into a R2-D2 helmet, satisfying her interests and improving its visual quality at the same time. Wholly made using Jenn’s own DIY method, the helmet transforming process comprised of the scuffing of the existing helmet paint, adding consecutive coats of spray paint, then arduous cutting and peeling of masking tape. After the spray job, accessories like PVC tubing and blinking lights are added. Finally, a heavy layer of clear coat is added, resulting in a livened up motorcycle safety helmet.

This R2-D2 Bike Helmet was only a one-off creation by Jenn Hall, and she has no plans for mass production at the meantime. Judging how fascinating and exquisite this helmet looks, it may be a piece of disappointing news that this R2-D2 helmet is not available for sale. However, good news is that she has generously provided a step-by-step guide in her blog instructing the creation process of the R2-D2 helmet, for the benefit of interested readers to make their own. Her instructions are easy to follow, so with some effort put in, you can have a customized R2-D2 helmet for yourself. With the DIY R2-D2 helmet, you can speed off on your motorcycle looking like R2-D2 from Star Wars.

There are awesome movies and then there is Star Wars. No other movie, in my humble opinion, has captures the movie goer’s imagination quite like the trials of Luke Skywalker and his band of Jedi fighting for the good of all mankind. Of course, nothing can beat the original trilogy in my book. However, that is just me. Good news though if you are a Star Wars nut like myself because there is something else that you absolutely have to get to add to your Star Wars memorabilia collection.

The Lightsaber Wall Sconce Lamp is a to-doe-for lamp that actually switches colour and emits the same lightsaber sounds that you can find in the movies. It is easy to hang on the wall – all you need to do is use the integrated bracket to place it up and you are good to go. Once you have done that, switch it on and you will see it in all its Jedi blazing glory!

When you first get the Lightsaber Wall Sconce Lamp, it comes in a few pieces which you need to assemble together in order to get the shape of the real lightsaber. However, it is extremely easy to do and you will soon find yourself with your very own lightsaber. You also get a remote control that you can use to switch colours – you get up to 8 choices. This is definitely a must have for all Star Wars fans out there. Hang it on your wall, hear it hum its tune and you will be brought into a galaxy, far, far away in no time!
