Anybody who considers themselves sensitive to the force would do well to check out these Star Wars iPhone cases from Firebox.
The Star Wars iPhone cases are highly detailed and properly themed to four of the most popular characters in the Star Wars universe. The Star Wars iPhone cases come in four different flavors: a furry Chewbacca model, Darth Vader, C-3PO and R2-D2. Personally I think they missed an opportunity by not including a Boba Fett model, but the ones that are here are really impressive, particularly the furry Chewie case. The cases are designed to protect an iPhone 5 and according to Firebox, they're only available for a limited time.
I don't think there's a franchise that fans complain about more, yet will stop at nothing to purchase products that are branded with the property as much as Star Wars. With that said, no iPhone is complete without the force protecting it.
