"Star Wars 1313" patent filed by LucasFilm

Though we're not yet sure what this thing is, we're very curious about it. A website calledFusiblefirst spotted the patent earlier today, and noted that it includes the use of video games as well as dozens of other categories. Including, but not limited to: sticker books, toy banks, and scooters (among dozens of others.)

In the expanded Star Wars universe, Boba Fett once used the alias CT-1313. So while, it's not likely we'll ever see games/films/scooters based on Boba Fett in disguise, this could be a codename of sorts. Boba Fett is long overdue to get a starring role in a game and/or film.
