Above is a Tibetan nomad, taken from an issue of National Geographic, circa 1989. Further proof that our sci-fi machinations are not fabrications, but merely residual knowledge from this and other dimensions bleeding into our collective unconscious! Where are you, unicorn?! Tell me! I need you.

Andy Helms is apparently a gorgeous guru of Star Wars prints. If you dig these sons a bitches and you’re not broke like my dumb ass, you can buy them here.

This just in – George Lucas has announced that Fall 2011 will see the release of a boxset consisting of all six Star Wars flicks on Blu-ray.

God damn, even though he’s a whiny puke and Aryan posterchild, Lukey goes far beyond the savior of the galaxy. It’s also a sexy dreamboat of barely-pubescent wunder.

What is the perfect compliment to some outrageously sweet Star Wars sneakers? Why, only this Adidas wookie-themed jacket. In a move that is sure to piss off PETA, the jacket is crafted with the finest of wookie furs cultivated from the pillaging of Kashyyyk during the Clone Wars. My response? Who gives a shit, these things are fly, no matter how much blood was spilled to make them.

Hit the jump for more pictures of this nerd-porn jacket.
