    I assume the target demographic for this playhouse is people who dress up as stormtroopers (to buy for their kids). But I can't imagine they'll go for it. There's just no sense of the hardened evil one needs to effectively serve the Empire. If my theoretical kids wanted one of these, I'd throw them in the Sarlacc pit.

    Oh piffle, When I was little we had a Jawa Sandcrawler playfort. Ok, it was really a rusted out refridgerator at the edge of the trailer park, but it was made of real, jagged, rusty metal! In a patch of poison ivy.


    You just can't rape childhoods like that.

    @Grey_Area: I know right. It might of just been a pit of pointy sticks and rebarb but to us it WAS the Sarlacc. Everything is so commercial now.

    No, to truly get the feel of the life of a TIE pilot, it needs to blow off the floor in a random direction, and roll end over end before bursting into flame.


    Wait, that might be the Bret Ratner version of a TIE Pilot's life.

    That's not really 'shopped, is it? The angles are all fucked up.


    Shame, Meredith, for stealing from children! You have to snatch it off the porch or mug the UPS man so the children never even knew they were getting one!
