Did You Get Your Star Wars Google Cardboard?

BB-8 Google Cardboard

I ran over to Verizon today to pick up the new Star Wars themed Google Cardboard. When I went in to the store I ran into my friend Brian from Built From Bricks. We talked for a bit and then I got my own Google Cardboard. I chose the BB-8 one. There were some R2-D2 ones, Stormtrooper ones and Kylo Ren ones. They were out of the Kylo Ren ones so I took BB-8. It is a pretty great little device. I got it for free because I am a Verizon subscriber.

When I finally got a chance to try out Google Cardboard I took a tour around our solar system. The app that I used was Titans of Space – Cardboard VR. So as you use this you are flying from planet to planet and learning some basic facts about each one. It was very cool. I later installed the Star Wars app and there is a little feature in that one called Jakku Spy where there will be plenty of little updates leading up to the new movie which I will be seeing two weeks from today.
