Star Wars clock, proof that The Force is not with you

starwars_clock.jpg

Attention Star Wars devotees: here's yet another opportunity for you to finance George Lucas's next vacation home. Either that or Etsy seller "YOUgNeek" is in a heap of trouble from unauthorized use of that valuable and ubiquitous Star Wars logo.

For this $90 artifact, he's dolled up a Sterling & Noble clock with a dozen spacecraft from the old movie franchise that won't die, and even invites you to request your fave vehicles if the ones you want aren't affixed to the stock model.

So the proliferation of Star Wars junk continues. What next? A Star Wars tea set? Oh, wait. Might as well start calling it Star Whores.

list of vessles corresponds to a different picture that appears on the same website www.yougneek.etsy.com, all materials are vintage and or recycled and recycled logo is optional if it offends!
