He may be made of money but this Indiana multi-millionaire is completely devoid of style when it comes to his home.
Cigar tycoon Richard Deer is selling up, having uprooted to Miami with his wife. But will anyone want his bizarre mansion, with its marble walls, velour carpeting and of course life-size stormtroopers?
These promotional photographs, from realtor.com, show the 23,000sqft property in Carmel, Indiana, worth $5.5 million, in all its hideous glory.
Foyer: The home's entry is covered in marble
The eye sore is a strange amalgamation of every decorating trick in the book, from granite pillars to chandeliers in every room.

ShareIt has a jester-themed dining room, a kitchen where every cabinet is a different colour and a wood-paneled office, which is hands-down the most conventional room in the whole property.
There's a large walk-in humidor where fellow cigar nuts can puff away before coughing up their lungs in the large gym down the hall.
Odd: Richard and Donna Deer, pictured, have moved to Miami
Velour: The master suite has purple carpet
Office: The wood paneled office is the most conventional room in the house
Awful: The home is filled with statues and ugly furnishings
The master bedroom - one of four but there are eight bathrooms - is of gigantic proportions with purple carpet and a mammoth four-poster bed.
Past the free-standing fireplace is a whirlpool bath that defies explanation.
Another sight to leave you speechless is the military-chic bathroom and the purple-plastered dressing room.
If you fancy a tipple, there's no need to leave the house, justy head down to the basement where you can explore the building's many bars?
Cinema: Catch a flick in the home theatre
Bars: Drink in the 80's speakeasy
It's a bath: The bedroom comes with a pillared bath
Whether you're after an urban speakeasy in the style of Chicago's Rush Street nightclubs, complete with pool tables and neon lights, or a Star Wars-themed bar from another galaxy is more your thing - there's something for everyone.
If you really want to party head to the home's 4,000sqft juke joint ballroom to dance the night away, or catch a film in the home theatre, but you'll have to share it with The Predator.
After all that excitement, relaxing by the equally ugly pool is definitely in order.
