Being confident is important to being a cook. You can’t be afraid of recipes or worried about whether the people eating your food will like it, you just have to get in the kitchen and get your hands dirty. Wearing an apron you love can actually help with this. When I bake bread wearing a Mellark Bakery apron, I just feel good. If I was wearing this R2-D2 apron by Etsy seller jordandene, I’d feel invincible. It sounds silly, but it’s true.
See what the back looks like after the break.
This R2-D2 mug has a cool 3D effect and is the perfect delivery system for your morning dose of caffeine. It’s also got Princess Leia’s famous line, “Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you’re my only hope,” on the inside of the mug. Hologram not included.

R2-D2′s shape makes it perfect for a multitude of different purposes: mailbox, rain barrel, surfboard and now, bottle opener.
This 4″ solid metal bottle opener was designed by Art Asylum and is equipped with magnets for easy fridge application. However, you’ll have a long wait before you can introduce it to your favorite beer, because it isn’t slated for release until June.

You may remember this sculpture from the photo and wordplay we published back in November. Thankfully some new information, videos, and even more wordplay has surfaced to satisfy your curiosity about tuna and corn R2-D2.
The official name is “Candroid”, and it recently served as a nerd magnet at the annual San Francisco Canstruction competition before being dismantled can by can and donated to local food banks. Hit the jump to watch a time lapse of its construction, as well as a video of the completed sculpture in all of its moving, beeping glory.
Lucasfilm has approved it’s fair share of questionable merchandise, but this R2-D2 pizza cutter is particularly bad. It looks like a sticker was just placed on a white pizza cutter, and the only unique quality is that it emits bleeps and bloops while you cut pizza.
Look, I admit that I have a Star Wars merchandise addiction, but even I don’t need a pizza cutter that sounds like Artoo – at least, not one that looks this cheap. Unfortunately, being sensible with regard to merchandise isn’t exactly Disney’s strong suit either.

Product designers have been working hard to make everything from rain barrels to Vespas look like R2-D2. In this case, alcohol aficionados were the target market with this 6 oz flask from Etsy seller “Your Flask”.
YourFlask’s are hand-wrapped with love and printed on high-quality adhesive waterproof vinyl that gives the flask an air tight waterproof seal. Extra layers of matte finish are added to provide extra UV and Moisture protection. This makes a special “Vintage” feel that is unlike any other flask you have seen!
The flask measures 3.75″ x 4″ x 1″ and features an R2-D2 graphic on both sides.
