Hello Boba?

I know what you are think­ing. It was bad enough to watch the most infa­mous bounty hunter in the galaxy get punked out by a smuggler’s blind (lit­er­ally) luck. Now there is this: “Hello Wars” is the new line of Star Wars themed stick­ers from the com­pany that brought us “Hello Kitty”. For sale so far is “r2k2” (R2-D2), “hans kitty” (Han Solo), “chewkitty” (Chew­bacca), “storm kitty” (Stormtrooper), and more. Most notably to us, of course, is “boba kitty”. The unfor­get­table image of Boba Fett’s Man­dalo­rian hel­met adorned with whiskers, kitty ears, and a big red bow.

Boba isn’t alone, how­ever, as his old man Jango is sched­uled for release some time before Christ­mas 2009 along with other pre­quel stick­ers, includ­ing Qui-Gon Jinn, Darth Sid­i­ous, Queen Ami­dala, and oth­ers. You can pur­chase the stick­ers via the “Hello Wars” website’s store here where you can also get a look at upcom­ing stick­ers of Darth Vader, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Lando Cal­riss­ian.
Accord­ing to wired.com, more cross-marketing will also be seen from Adi­das footwear, but fur­ther infor­ma­tion on that has yet to be seen. Let’s leave out the big red bows, shall we Adidas?
