What Took So Long?: The R2-D2 Trashcan


From geekology, Man, people have been calling R2-D2 a trashcan forever. Why in the hell it took someone so long to finally monopolize on this idea and make THE AWSOMEST TRASHCAN IN THE GALAXY is a mysery to me. Available from Urban Outfitters the cute little guy stands 24" tall and costs $148. And as if that wasn't already sweet enough, he's a no-touch model. So all you have to do to throw something away is just stomp on his penis there in the front and presto, he opens.

UPDATE: Turns out that's not his penis, just another foot.

R2D2 trash can guarantees instant membership in the geekdom hall of fame

It's cool and all but not $148 cool. JPX, don't you have something like that? And why haven't you posted a picture of it?

That's true! Don't you have some R2 cooler or something?

You should get one of these trash cans, one of those computer cases you posted about a couple of weeks ago, and set them all up together. Then get an R2 end table, air purifier and fold-out couch.
