eBay Madness: The Dark Side of Ewoks

by

As I stated yesterday I’m working on restoring my vintage Ewok playset to it’s former glory. I was on eBay looking for some of the parts I need when I ran across two actions that fit right into the theme of “eBay Madness”. The first is for this lovely custom Ewok as a Jedi:

I’m really afraid that somehow this will make it’s way into the live action Star Wars show if George Lucas sees this. I love Ewoks and all, but I like to think that they could even more ridiculous than seen in the cartoon Ewoks. If you find yourself wanting to throw money away, then the bidding starts at the low, low price of 14.95.

But if you think this is bad, just check this out!

It’s a life size Ewok costume prop and… I think it speaks for itself. By Crom, those eyes! It’s staring into my soul. The seller says the costume is not endorsed by Lucasfilm. No shit? I can’t imagine why they wouldn’t want to endorse this abomination that looks close enough to the real thing, yet fails on so many levels.

You know, I’ve been reading a lot of H.P. Lovecraft and I swear it was in one of his stories. I think it was called, “The Thing From the Movie House Scares the Piss Out of Me” or something along those lines.

Aaaaaaaaaaaahh!!!

P.S. I promise I’ll stop talking about Ewoks for a bit.
