After seeing a Darth Vader/Mr. Potato Head Christmas ornament, I didn’t think there was any kind of merchandise that they would say no to slapping on a Star Wars logo.

I don’t see what harm releasing these products could do to the franchise. I mean the Star Wars brands reputation is unassailable. Nothing could ever conceivably tarnish Star Wars for the world.
