have always held out hope that the coolest ice cubes in the galaxy, shaped like Han Solo Frozen in Carbonite from Star Wars, would one day find their way into my freezer. The Force must be strong with me, because coming soon is the incredibly cool new Han Solo Frozen in Carbonite Ice Cube Tray with R2-D2 Ice Bucket ($33)!

I don't have all the details yet, since this is still a pre-order item, but it appears that you can make up to 4 frozen Han Solo "ice cubes" in the tray at a time. After they have survived the freezing chamber and appear to be in perfect hibernation, they can then be loaded into the equally cool R2-D2 ice bucket. Simply remove Artoo's dome head and fill him up with frozen Han Solos or just regular old boring ice cubes if that's all you have. No home cantina would be complete without this set.

How better can you cool your drink than with a carbonite Han Solo ice cube? And where better to get that cube than R2-D2's head, of course!

so cool
