Star Wars Y-Wing Bed

I can’t find out much information about this bed — just some pictures listed on a real estate site. Yup, it’s for sale at $364,900. Comes with a house in Visalia, CA and a guarantee of perpetual virginity, like the AT-AT bed.

    Not getting the virginity joke. Doesn't the article clearly indicate that it's a KID'S bed ?

    Not that I can see.

    That is so much cooler than the AT-AT bed, but then again, I've always loved the design of the Y-Wing. That definitely doesn't look like a kid's room.

    Gold Leader rulez!

    I know plenty of starwars nerd girls who would love this. Virginity keeping and starwars paraphernalia no longer correlate, get with the times, it's not the 70's.

    After all, girls aren't much bigger than womp-rats.

    As Star Wars clearly pointed out, any nerd girls that are interested in you will ALWAYS turn out to be your sister.

    $364,900,- to keep your virginity intact...?
    ...A bargain I should say!

    Then again-
    If you already have a spaceport, take time to surf the internet for some nice Y-wing pic's, do some drawing and measuring and if you buy about $100,- worth plywood, plastic tubes, 2 domed dustbins and some paint and acryllic glass and you put ...say about one day's time of work in it, you could get your own Y-Wing much cheaper. :-)

    It costs that much because it has a virtual reality simulator in it where even the most inexperienced virgin can pretend to be Hans Solo and make out with intergalatic alien pirate chicks.

    I was gonna add as Chewy watched on but hesitated. Aww what the heck.

    Is there a discount because of the visible battle damage? I see some carbon scoring on the starboard hull and engine tube. Looks like the guy's seen a lot of action.

    Thanks for the comments! The popularity of our Star Wars room is exploding this week (after having the house on the market for 6 weeks). Yes, this is a kids room. You can go to the house website to bedroom 2 to see all 10 pictures of it. http://ourvisaliahouse.com/ It took me about a year to complete working weekends, etc. The room is 11x13 and the ship covers almost the entire space. We have 9 foot ceilings so the bottom-most part of the ship is 6 feet off the ground which left 2.5 feet above the mattress. Perfect! Pictures dod not do this justice! My 14 year-old has friends lined up at the door just to see it and play in it! The cockpit has a computer joystick (oh, I can hear the jokes already-sigh) wired to a toy blaster gun I carefully split in half and screwed to the underbelly. So lights and blaster sounds (7 total) come from the two main buttons on the joystick. Me and a friend (over 400 pounds) tested the strength of it by hanging off the loft and off the area between the cockpit and the bed - SOLID!! Didn't move a millimeter or make a sound! The concept is: the Y-Wing is leaving a docking bay to head out and fight a battle around the Death Star. The fourth wall (which is from camera position in the above picture) is space with a painting of a small battle scene around the Death Star. You can see there is a window above the bed (I photographed it at night on purpose). On the same wall is the entertainment center with misc cabinets for storage of xbox, etc and a 32 inch LCD-very cool! Instead of bedroom furniture, I used garage furniture to go with the docking bay theme. It was fun making it and the cost was about $2000 (not including the TV).
