I was looking to buy a shaver and stumbled on this. I remember seeing it a few years ago and chuckling at how absurd it was. When I was 5 (1979) my dad had the OG Star Wars on Beta Max, I had no idea what the hell kind of black magic that Beta was, but it let me watch the movie over and over and over. Every time I went to visit him for years I'd watch it like twice. Whoever came up with the idea to make a Stormtrooper shaver has to be a life long Star Wars fan.

I had to double check that this is real. I guess the world has made me cynical.

I know someone that has an R2-D2 pressure cooker.
I think they have a department for figuring out what products they can sell by making items Star Wars-themed.

I think Star Wars fans will buy almost anything with the name attached to it. I saw a Star Wars oil diffuser, I don't really see a SW nerd being the target crowd for scenting up their house.

I just Googled the R2D2 Instapot you brought up, shit is AWESOME! If it wasn't $250 I'd buy it lol.

They definitely paid waaaaay less than that, I think it was in the $50-70 range a couple years ago on sale. I should let them know there's an opportunity to make some money...
