You Asked For It: ThinkGeek To Try To Produce Tauntaun Sleeping Bag

By Evan Ackerman

When we posted about the Tauntaun Sleeping Bag on April 1, a couple of you mentioned that April Fool’s joke product or not, you’d really, really like one. Turns out you aren’t alone, and ThinkGeek is taking notice:

ATTN Tauntaun Fanatics! Due to an overwhelming tsunami of requests from YOU THE PEOPLE, we have decided to TRY and bring this to life. We have no clue if the suits at Lucasfilms will grant little ThinkGeek a license, nor do we know how much it would ultimately retail for. But if you are interested in ever owning one of these, click the link below and we’ll try!

There’s certainly some precedent for this; last year, after pranking everyone with a personal sound track shirt on April 1, ThinkGeek ended up producing them. You can sign up here to be notified if the Tauntaun sleeping bag ever comes to pass, but you’ll better believe you’ll see it right here if it happens.

New Products From ThinkGeek Include Tauntaun Sleeping Bag, USB Pet Rock

By Evan Ackerman

ThinkGeek has released a bevy of new products today. My favorite of the bunch has to be this Tauntaun sleeping bag, complete with lightsaber zipper pull and toasty warm faux-intestine liner. It’s not as warm as sleeping inside a real freshly dead animal, but I bet it smells a heck of a lot better. You can get this for about $40, but you’ll have to wait for it to be shipped in from the ThinkGeek wearhouse on Hoth. A couple more new products, after the jump.

Zodi Camp Shower Gives You 10 Minutes Of Hot Water

zodi-travel-shower

By Luke Anderson

When I go camping, I like to stick to a tent and a sleeping bag, rather than taking a big RV like some people tend to do. I like not being troubled by all of the extras and just enjoying nature. Unfortunately after a few days of enjoying nature, one can get a very unnatural smell. A lot of campgrounds have showering facilities, but if you’re out in the wild, you won’t be as fortunate. If you are still wanting to take a nice hot shower now and then, I suggest investing in one of these Zodi Camp Showers.

The shower holds enough hot water for you to get a good 10-minute shower, which should improve your smell considerably. The water can be adjusted up to 100 degrees and is heated with small propane tanks while the pump is powered by 4 D batteries. That hot shower comes at a hefty price, $90 to be exact.
