good this this might be the one are you seeing what do you feel see I feel I need more knobs and dials maybe a pocket watch what you do just kind of hold it up here and the straps there's nothing weird about this so the the search for our new comic con costume has led us to this booth where you can become your own Jedi yeah for a hundred and fifty dollars you can buy a black Slanket no this is this is the Jedi Snuggie all kidding aside this feels very comfortable yeah and I wish that it does it come with a lightsaber to come on a lightsaber know they are sold separately they are sold
