			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left">I&#8217;m no Star Wars fan, so I wouldn&#8217;t know if there&#8217;s any canonical reason for Hasbro to bundle Mighty Muggs figures of Darth Vader, Darth Maul and Darth Revan (of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars:_Knights_of_the_Old_Republic">KotOR</a> fame) together with &#8230; Han Solo in a Hoth hoodie.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-17072" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/star-wars-mighty-muggs.jpg" alt="star wars mighty muggs" width="600" height="600" title="star wars mighty muggs photo" /></p>
<p>All I can think of is that people will be so weirded out after they purchase this that they&#8217;ll feel compelled to buy the other, similarly randomly packaged Mighty Muggs. I for one would throw away the Vader figure. Gives me the creeps. Maybe you could cover his face with a miniature paper bag. This and other odd bundles of Star Wars Mighy Muggs are available at <a href="http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=HS78016G&amp;id=TE-905244077">Entertainment Earth</a> for an equally odd price of $51 (USD).</p>
