Jon Stewart was born in 1962. So, he is probably a bit too old to fully appreciate the awesomeness that is having your likeness attached to your very own "Star Wars" figurine.Hasbro did up a special edition "Stewart Trooper" to reward the comedian and "Daily Show" ringleader for hosting "Star Wars Celebration V," which took place in Orlando over the weekend.
George Lucas presented the 3.75-inch doll (a one-of a-kind which will not be available in stores) to Stewart during the convention.
The Stewart Trooper not only features a detachable helmet, but also two detachable heads -- one noggin is clean shaven and the other features Stewart's recently grown goatee.
Read on to check out more photos of the action figure, which should trigger countless "Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?" jokes.

WTF is that BS? The author of this obviously has no clue who Jon is or that commented wouldn't open the post.

Not sure how much thought Jeremy Taylor put into writing this article. Someone born in 1962 was 15 when Star Wars made it's debut. "So, he is probably a bit too old to fully appreciate..." isn't exactly the best statement to make. Stewart was at the perfect age of geekdom for this movie and the following two.
I hate how the media grind this stuff out without checking their articles. Same people who can't tell the difference between there, their and they're.

Speaking as Jeremy Taylor, Jeremy Taylor can assure you Jeremy Taylor knew exactly what year Star Wars came out. However, in Jeremy Taylor's experience, Jeremy Taylor spent a lot more time playing with, appreciating and possibly pining to be a Star Wars action figure at age nine than Jeremy Taylor did at age 15.
Good job on knowing the difference between there, their and they're, though. Your second grade English teacher must be very proud.

Niiiice. So instead of admitting that your effort and snark about Stewart's age was severely miscalculated you instead make a little dig about how old someone should be to appreciate star wars?! Because God knows, fifteen-year-olds can't like Star Wars! Major fail there, pal. Seriously. I'm glad someone beat me to it because I can't believe any self-respecting reporter would be so dense as to think something like Star Wars is too immature for a fifteen-year-old. The word stupid doesn't even cover it.

This is so funny. Haha, i wonder if he gave it to his son. I saw them at Disney for the closing of Star Tours and got a picture with him after he got finished looking at action figures with his sons and daughter that is. Hahaha.

Perhaps the author meant that at the advanced age of 48, Stewart is too old to get excited about anything. He's wrong, of course, but enthusiasm for childish toys does lessen as real life drags us down. Maybe childish toys are a remedy for middle age.
