There has been an awakening. Have you felt it? Well, chances are it’s just you feeling alert after a nice cup of tea poured from this awesome Star Wars: The Force Awakens BB-8 Teapot. This ceramic teapot looks just like your favorite droid, except this one holds tea. It holds approximately 32 ounces.
I really love these Droid prints featuring BB-8, the Interrogator Droid, and the Power Droid. I hope Brian Mulhall creates more, because I love droids and I want to see what he does with droids like R2-D2, that mouse droid on the Death Star and R5-D4. I would buy the whole set if he added a few more.
You can find these cool prints at Etsy seller goldenplanetprints shop along with many other awesome pieces of art. These Star Wars watercolor prints look pretty amazing. I love how they all drip and fade to nothing. I’m not sure why that fascinates me so much, but I love seeing these characters in this way. It’s just very impactful and eye catching. Almost like they are being created or are dissolving before your eyes.
The scene where Rey and BB-8 first met is recreated here with the Teedo scavenger and the Luggabeast. This amazing recreation was made by LEGO Ideas member hongtzer. It is their idea of a proposed playset and it is really expertly done. I can’t imagine LEGO would do a better job. It is perfect.
Which makes it a bit heartbreaking, because this concept has arrived a bit too late. LEGO already has a Teedo minifig and a luggabeast on the way as part of an upcoming set called Encounter on Jakku (75148). Oh well, we can still admire hongtzer’s work and give them credit where credit is due. Great build.

These Star Wars Haute Couture Designs are amazing. Fashion illustrator Guillermo Meraz was clearly inspired by Star Wars: The Force Awakens. There are designs here from the original trilogy too. Being a man, I’m not all that into fashion, but these designs blow me away. These designs show off Rey, Boba Fett, Yoda, BB-8, Chewbacca and more. I would love to see these on a runway somewhere in real life.
I heard you wanted more Star Wars toys featuring Rey. Here you go. They don’t get any more limited edition than this figure. Just in case it isn’t clear, this is not a toy. This is an amazing cosplay by MCubed, looking like a Black Series figure. Best Star Wars figure ever! In two versions, both with BB-8.

Hot Toys has really outdone itself with this awesome Rey And BB-8 Sixth Scale Figure Set. Rey features a newly developed head sculpt with fine hair sculpture, two interchangeable looks, very nicely tailored and detailed outfit, detailed accessories, and a hexagonal figure stand with the Resistance’s emblem.
BB-8’s body is embedded with self-balancing mechanisms, has LED light-up eyes, and a specially designed Jakku desert-themed figure base attachable to Rey’s hexagonal figure stand.
They make a fantastic looking pair in this set. I’m loving the realism. I may have to get this as a gift for myself this Christmas.
I guess we know what the BB stands for in BB-8. It must mean Bling Bling. That is one shiny droid. Definitely the one I’m looking for. No Jedi mind trick can sway me. However, the price certainly puts a damper on my enthusiasm. Disney Consumer Products and Kay Jewelers have teamed up to create a stunning new interpretation of the new droid in gold and diamonds.
It took 600 hours to create and it has been valued at $135,000. This luxury version of the droid is just 4.25″ high and weighs just over 1.5 lbs. Made from 18-carat yellow gold, this piece has around 860 diamonds which amounts to 18 carats. This little and expensive droid will be displayed at the Force 4 Fashion exhibit in New York and auctioned off for charity later this month. Even R2-D2 wasn’t this valuable when he had the Death Star plans.

What if BB-8, that cute new spherical droid from Star Wars: The Force Awakens, was made by Apple? That’s what designer/concept artist Martin Hajek asked himself. Thiese images are the answer. This BB-8 was made with extreme attention to detail. The droid would come in silver, gold, and space gray.
It would also feature that iconic glowing Apple logo on the side. Of course it would also cost way more than the competition and you would have to upgrade it every year, but no droid is perfect.
