Those who call the planet Hoth home should not even bother checking out this AT-AT Imperial Bookcase.
This awesome bookshelf was created by Etsy merchant Kenneth Barry of the shop Whittled in Wood. His bookshelf is essentially a bisected AT-AT from the Star Wars universe that can hold books and other knickknacks.
The AT-AT Imperial Bookcase was handmade using four types of wood: plywood, europly, Baltic birch and Russian birch. The walker is held together using screws and dowels and a custom paint job can be applied. All of this awesomeness doesn't come cheap, with the AT-AT Imperial Bookcase selling for $565. Those who favor the light side will want to pick up the Millennium Falcon Bookcase also offered by Whittled in Wood.
