Haven’t you at one time or another wanted to give Darth Vader just a big ole snuggly hug? Well in the movies I wouldn’t have attempted it, but you can now do so in real life with the Star Wars Cuddly Toys. These absolutely adorable plush cuddly doll versions of Darth, Yoda, R2 D2, and Chewbacca want to make you grab one and give it a big hug. All the dolls feature some type of sound when you squeeze them except for R2 D2, ( which is kind of ironic). For instance Chewie will make his signature growl if you squeeze him or Darth will breathe heavily. Cuddly Talking Darth, Chewbacca, and Yoda retail for£14.99. Cuddly R2 D2 retails for £11.99.

The Lubix NC1 Bluetooth Stereo Headset is for those people who want the best of both worlds. It’s not only a decent handsfree Bluetooth headset but it also doubles as a stereo headset to take advantage of those cellphones with A2DP playback. The Lubix not only attempts to do two things, but it also is customizable with Skins, making it a fashion accessory as well.The Lubix Bluetooth stereo headset is no stranger to Chip Chick readers either. You might recall that we featured a contest not so long ago where we gave them away.
Design:
The Lubix NC1 Bluetooth headset is designed to not only be wearable as a necklace but also be customizable to your taste. Lubix offers consumers a chance to create a skin for their pair of Lubix NC1 headphones and you can choose from predetermined designs or you can create one yourself.
