"Okay, wait a minute... I am baffled here, and I want answers....
So, you've got Queen Amidala as Padme the Rook... Princess Leia as the Bishop... and you make Darth Vader and Obi Wan Kenobi the QUEENS?!
I get that you're trying to preserve the hierarchy of the waring factions in order to complete a metaphor. I totally get that. But come on, Hasbro. First Scrabulous and now this??"
"Now you too can be a Jedi Master, with your very own lightsaber. Every Star Wars costume needs one. And you know (costume or not) the man in your life would love one of these anytime."
"So, I have this ex-boyfriend who has a brother who has a little boy who has quadruplet brothers... yup, five little boys in one house. No more fighting for the Luke Skywalker outfit. Who wants to be the X-Wing Fighter Pilot?"
"Luke... I am your brother... come to the darkside!! Plus it looks totally warm and functional for a kid. Costumes have come a long way since I was a kid."
"These are terribly nerdy -- but, then again, so is wearing slippers in the first place. However, if you live someplace without carpet, or in an older home that isn't insulated just as well as you'd like, you'll be thankful for anything that keeps those feet warm in the morning. Why be all cool and Jedi about it?"
"Ever wanted to sound like a Dark Lord of the Sith? Now you can. Use it to make prank calls, fool your friends, and be a hit at parties. Although I wouldn't recommend wearing it to the bank to try and make a withdrawal."
