The Most Awesome Ice Cube Tray Ever

20080513-icewars.jpg

Saw this on Boing Boing, where the sentiment seems to be that the talking R2D2 ice bucket is a near-sighted scrap pile but that the Han Solo–frozen-in-carbonite ice mold that comes with it stone cold awesome. One commenter there laments that the shape of the Han Solice would limit it to highball glasses but another envisions pressing it into duty as a chocolate mold. Unfortunately, the set, which was only available by pre-order in the U.K., now appears to have been removed from websites there.

any chocolates molded from this ought to have a cool, minty flavor.
!!!

Looks like the hands would make this really difficult to extract from the mould?

sarahdlr: I'm guessing its a silicone mold that could be peeled away. I'd love to see it in action. Maybe someday.

dammit! my sci-fi geek of a husband would have loved the Han mold. he would have passed on the R2 ice bucket but Han would be encased in our freezer for sure. "He'll be quite safe...if he survived the freezing process". 3PO was such a buzzkill.
