Alas, the Buy It Now price is $7,500. Too bad, because it hit two points in this household: Broomhandles and Star Wars.

Live firing? Like laser bolts?

No wonder it's $7500.

I say she is worth it and that you should buy it for her!

What say you @TeacherSmurf

 

[mrblond]

And this made me afraid for the Smurfs. Be careful out there my little blue friends.

Oh, actual blaster would be money well spent at that rate. Alas, it only "blasts" 7.63㎜ Mauser.

As much as I would love Han Solo's blaster and am grateful that @CountryGent looks for me, I'm waiting for the Vostok Margolin that my gent has been looking for. There have been hints that if we get one, I get a custom silencer to make it look like Princess Leia's blaster.

OK that would be cool.

A slave Leia costume would be cooler....

Well ... one can't argue with the facts. Oh, I find zero interest in "cosplay", in any way, shape, or form. My wife on the other hand, most interesting, as well as having a penchant for the silliness. Regarding the former, after all these years, is probably a good sign. I think.

No, I will not wear a metal bikini and my shenanigans during Homecoming only kinda counts.

I vaguely remember those homecoming costumes. Those BUNS! And by that, I mean, hair done like this, of course ...
