Encase your iPhone with the Han Solo Carbonite accessory

There are many popular Star Wars characters that have come out of the famous movie series such as Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Jabba the Hutt, and Yoda. Another one that has peaked pop culture over the years was Han Solo, played by Harrison Ford who became a huge movie star. 

In Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, Solo was a hustler by today’s terms, and was sought out by a bounty hunter (Boba Fett) for capture and return to Jabba the Hutt over an illegal cargo transport dispute. Solo was later captured by Fett, and he was encased in carbonite with the help of Darth Vader for safe return to Jabba the Hutt.

When Solo was encased, it made for the of the most popular scenes in Star Wars history with the still image of Han Solo frozen in time, pictured inset. That scene where he is encased in carbonite has been recreated and made into an iPhone case, which is just a genius idea. The case is designed with a high resolution photograph, but unfortunately is not a three-dimensional embossed item which is a bummer, but still a great find.
