This is ingenious, esp. the intestine print and the zipper.

But NOELEGY’s comments hit hard and ring true.

I just checked ThinkGeek.com, and they got so many requests for this that they are going to TRY to get it done!!!
There is a link on the product page that you can click and give your email so that if it ever becomes a real item to buy, they will email you.

Someone get on the horn to Lucasfilm licensing QUICK! This has to be mass-produced ASAP.

That, and a carbonite bed for adults.

(Oops–hit “tab” “enter” too quickly…)

Since you have such pull in the blogosphere, and a really cool store, (and technically ThinkGeek isn’t making them) you could totally jump on this one and make lots ‘o loot!

Cool, but makes more sense to the generation that was kids when “Empire” first came out. This generation is now having kids, and probably thinks it’s really cool to wrap their kids up in Tauntaun intestines. The kids are probably kind of “meh” about it.

Which touched off a series of thoughts about what a weird culture kids live in nowadays in America: bubble-wrapped and protected from every possible perceived harm, but exposed to more virtual violence than our generation (I’m 39) ever was. If you need proof of this, try watching one of the old-school horror movies (try “Friday the 13th”, the original) and compare it to say, “Saw.”

Unlike the Expedia gag, I totally bought this. Well played, Think Geek.

I thought of this a long time ago. sans the brilliant light saber zipper.

I think cool beats out disturbing, Graystone2000. I am not even that big of a Star Wars geek, but I would love one of these.

I love the intestinal print on the inside of the sleeping bag.

Cool… disturbing… not sure which wins?
