It's Finally Here!!!!!

The Tauntaun sleeping bag that started out as an April Fools' Day joke received so much positive feedback that it has finally made it through licensing and into production. See the main description here.

I signed up for updates to know when the dream became reality and this is what I received.

A message from Mr. F.M. Tauntaun, c/o ThinkGeek

My friends in the Rebel Alliance,

Remember me? The ThinkGeek April Fools Day joke, a little movie 
called Star Wars? 

Yes, it's me, the Tauntaun Sleeping Bag, and I've arrived safely 
at ThinkGeek HQ after a long and harrowing journey from Hoth to 
Jokeland to Licensingville to Realitytown.

Turns out the monkeys here are even more excited about me than I 
was about finally being unpacked--'cause if you think I smell bad 
on the outside, just imagine after a long trip in a box. The 
attached photos might explain it better.

Anyways, everybody here wants to hang out and catch up, so I'm 
sorry about having to make this quick. Just wanted to let you 
guys know that I've survived the trip and I'll keep you posted 
on the next phase of my saga!

XOXO,

First Manufactured Tauntaun Sleeping Bag 

P.S. Apparently you guys can compete for me by entering 
ThinkGeek's Halloween Pumpkin Template Contest, and you've got 
until 10/29/09 to submit an entry. (No Tauntaun template 
yet? Hmm.)
