Han Solo, in carbonite, in your house

The image of Han Solo encased in carbonite is so iconic, "Star Wars" geeks around the world have come up with myriad ways to recreate the moment. Go online and read about Han Solo in Chocolate Carbonite, Han Solo in Carbonite USB keys, and even recipes for Han Solo En-Queso'd in Carbonite (a cheese dish).
But nothing is quite as cool as this mammoth office desk created by Tom Spina Designs, a New York custom sculpture and theme prop company. It took two months to create the desk, constructed largely of steel. It was built for one of the members of Christian rock band, Casting Crowns. As Solo himself once said: "Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid."
