\"shut_up_and_take_my_money\"<\/a>This would have been the Holy Grail of Star Wars collectibles when I was a kid. Hell, it’s a heck of a collectible as an adult. I know tons of people that would love to display this in their office or even a dedicated home theater. Perhaps they would allow their kids to see it from time to time. If they are lucky…<\/p>\n

Created by a group in Texas called Whittled in Wood, this bookshelf<\/a> has been designed to look like the\u00a0AT-AT units seen in the icy cold climate of Hoth at the start<\/a> of\u00a0Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back<\/em>. It’s definitely not cheap though. While the price was a bit under $600 last week, it’s skyrocketed to $915 on Etsy over the past seven days due to tons of attention in the Internet Tubes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In addition to the awesome\u00a0AT-AT Imperial Bookcase, the group also sells bookcases designed to look like the\u00a0Millennium Falcon<\/a> and the\u00a0Incredible Hulk<\/a>. However, the\u00a0AT-AT definitely looks more natural as a bookcase because it appears as if the AT-AT is walking along the wall of your room. Check out pictures of the bookcase in action below:<\/p>\n
