I think the Steve Jobs in Carbonite [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casetify-star-wars-day) Case is probably the most hilarious accessory you can get.

Just as the name suggests, the Steve Jobs in Carbonite iPhone Case features [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-2g)’s CEO trapped in the same substance Han Solo was imprisoned in. I think the only real difference is that Jobs doesn’t really look too concerned within his frozen position. The cover is silver snap-in case that protects the phone from scratches and features cut-outs so that all the buttons are accessible.

The iPhone case is currently available for purchase at the [Society 6](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skybowl) online shop. It’s a little creepy having Steve Jobs on the back of your phone pleading for help, but I suppose you’ll get use to it.
