Mini Sci-Fi Coolers

Igloo's Star Wars The Child Playmate Mini Cooler Features Baby Yoda

Baby Yoga's image has already been used on everything from waffle makers to shoes, and now you can add coolers to the list with the debut of Igloo's Star Wars The Child Playmate Mini Cooler.

Thanks to a partnership with the Star Wars brand, Igloo has created a mini cooler that pays homage to 'The Child,' also know as Baby Yoda. The Child Playmate Mini Cooler is a four-quart size cooler that's big enough to fit six canned drinks, but small enough to take on any outdoor adventure. The cooler also features a tent-top design that's decorated with a colorful Baby Yoda graphic. The graphic even makes it look as though the iconic green Star Wars character is peering out from inside the cooler itself.
