Never Buy This: Creepy Chewbacca Backpack
I hesitated bringing this to your attention but, I have to say, the thing has grown on me. Like a fungus. Halloween is over, kids, and this plushie, Chewie backpack is to be worn with only the greatest caution, fear and awareness that you will be a target for bullies the world over.
Normally, Star Wars collectible items have a nostalgic appeal, even in their absurdity. However, the Chewbacca Backpack takes the absurd into idiotic territory. ThinkGeek’s description of Chewie on your back says it all, “First, his bandoleer bag can hold some smaller accessories such as cables, business cards, or Ewok jerky. And second, there can be no bigger thrill than asking someone if they want to pet your Wookiee.”
Exactly what kind of ‘business cards’ does any kid who would be caught dead wearing the Chewbacca Backpack carry around? I’ll let that one mull over in your brain while you try not to think about the Wookiee part.
Get one for $40 and let your freak flag fly.
