How sweet it is.  To finally trump the Garden Nome comes the awesome Lawn Jawa.  Crafted from a high quality solid plastic resin, this fully painted Jawa will stand guard no matter what the weather forecast.

Standing at a foot tall, only Star Wars purists will be able you if this Jawa is to scale or not, but I don’t care-I like this little guy no matter how “historically” accurate he is.

It actually reminds me of those tiny cross-dimensional beings from the Phantasm movies.  The Tall Man!

You can pre-order this Lawn Jawa now for $35, and it will ship on December 9th.

Robotic Solar Powered Lawn Mower

October 24th, 2008 4:19 PM | by Christen da Costa

Soon your Roomba automated vacuum cleaner will have an outdoor buddy, the Automower.  Laden in solar panels, the mower can recharge its battery when the sun shines or return to its base station for an off the grid fill up.  Lawn capacity maxes out at .5 acres, which should be adequate for most Americans, and its 3 rotating blades are designed to cut the grass so fine that it decomposes quick enough to doubles as a fertilizer.  Hands and limbs won’t get severed thanks to a few security features installed, such as 4 digit PIN code to turn the mower on and off, an auto off switch if the mower is picked up and an auditory alarm system.  Keeping the mower on your property is as simple as installing a proximity wire.

No word on price or when this version of the Automower will hit retail
