Conan O’Brien’s going to Comic-Con July 10th, and this time he’ll be bringing all the fun to those who can’t make it in glorious virtual reality goodness. So what do you do if you want your Conan in VR but don’t have a headset? You take 2 minutes out of your fine Friday afternoon and request a free one, of course.
These VR headsets are made from the very same cardboard specification Google has published (which you can actually make yourself), only they have Conan’s freakishly orange hair plastered on the side (which makes it 10 times better).
With it, you’ll be able to drop your phone in and check out Conan360 videos throughout Comic-Con, as well as any 360-degree video content made for cardboard. Be sure to throw your name into the hat for one, even if only because you’re as obsessed with Team CoCo as everyone else seems to be.

I love Conan. I signed up to get one. Nice little token.
is ti going to support the Nexus 6???? or is it based on the 1st gen design?
Does it really really matter? It’s Free.
haha I signed up for it man, but the 1st gen holds up to 5.2 inches i think, or 5.5??? the 2nd one supports up to 6 inch phones. just asking a quuestion =)
Honestly, I’m still surprised this is available. It’s been around all week. Then again, I guess they have a large supply, after all, it’s pretty cheap to make, and the payout from this could end up being decent for them.
That being said, I requested one earlier this week and spread the word.
I know I did mine two days ago.
Phandroid has a spot on their websites for tip or leaks but it probably doesn’t get used too much.
By the time I get around to submitting a tip, it is generally known by the site, although I should probably just use regular email to do it, this way I don’t need to open my links folder on my homescreen, click Phandroid, go to tips page, then fill it out.
Phandroid should just be your start page ;)
You’re right. It *SHOULD*, although I prefer to look at pictures of Snapple when loading Chrome, they are part of my “happy place”.
Conan, and his hair, are pretty douchey. I don’t know anything about this device – I just wanted to diss his stupid hairdo.
What’s there not to know about Cardboard? It’s been talked about at the last 2 I/I/O Keynotes, and it goes GREAT with steak sauce.
Conan is awesome.
I hate his hair too. The way he flips it, ugh.
I’m shocked they didn’t even ask for email address, what are they going to snail mail me spam?
