THINKGEEK - DARTH VADER IMPERSONATIONS

Science fiction bad-ass, Darth Vadar, is many different things to many different people. To some, he is a tyrant and a killer of worlds. To others, he is a redemptive figure who came good at the end. And to everybody else, he is some tall chap in a very heavy costume - and in dire need of an inhaler for his asthma.  However, to me, Dark Vadar is a joker - because you know that he does these really funny impersonations of celebrities, right? What? You have not heard about this? Then you have to have a look at...


Star Wars Darth Vader 3D Reconstruction Log


Back in the day, a tech-head mate of mine called Herbert, was an extra on Star Wars, and he would carry around with him his camcorder, and capture whatever old 'Garth Adder' would do on the set. Here, have a look at some of these silly impersonations that this loon would come up with...

Darth Vader USB Hub Darth Vader USB Hub
Vader - once Anakin Skywalker, though that name no longer has any meaning to him - When we were just younglings, that breathy evil space-samurai used to give us nightmares. Now, though, Lucas has turned him into a simple misunderstood uberjedi with a few mechanical upgrades. Still, that lovable 7 foot-tall misanthrope is the coolest Jedi evar, and it was about time we turned him into a USB Hub. 480 MBps of digital connectivity in a simple four-port USB 2.0 hub sits on your desk, just oozing sithy malevolence. Plug in your flash drives, scanners, and other devices, and he'll frighten you with those iron-lungs of his. HHHHHOOOOOOOO-PHERRRRRRR! The Darth Vader USB Hub is here! Buy one now! The Emperor is not as forgiving as I.

LEGO Darth Vader Torch Light LEGO Darth Vader Torch Light
For decades, the world's children have depended on the faithful teddy bear to guard them while they slept. But just as our overuse of hand sanitizer is breeding super-germs, our overuse of teddy bears is breeding super-monsters. Who will defend our wee geeks from certain doom from the Thing Under The Bed or Thing In The Closet? Darth Vader, that's who. Maybe he's recruiting youth Sith, or maybe he's repented and doing community service, but either way, here's Vader, in the form of a LEGO Torch Light. His arms, legs, and head are all adjustable, so you can pose him in whatever menacing way you see fit. Bright white LEDs shine from the bottoms of his feet and his red lightsaber glows, ready to mow down the monsters. Product Specifications For Ages 5 and Up WARNING: SMALL PARTS - Not intended for children under 3 years of age. LEGO Torch Light modeled after Darth Vader Will do a better job at scaring away monsters than that teddy bear May possibly recruit your child to join the Dark Side Best not to get this for a child already showing Dark tendencies, including but not limited to a love of cookies and annihilating other people's planets Officially licensed LEGO & Lucasfilm collectible Dimensions: Vader, 7.5", lightsaber, 6.5" Batteries: 4 AAA (not included)



DUDE AND ANCHORMAN

  

Darth Vader Cookie Jar Darth Vader Cookie Jar
It makes so much sense. Cookies are evil for diets. Darth Vader is evil. Darth Vader is made of cookies. We don't know how we didn't make the connection earlier. We're sure that it's just a fact that George Lucas didn't want to include in the movies. Or maybe he did and the National Cookie Lobbyists forced him to take it out. We're depending on you, geek friends. Find that alternate footage of Darth Vader getting injured and leaking chocolate chips and sprinkles. This cookie jar is shaped like everyone's favorite Sith Lord. It's a full figure sculpt (different from a full-figured sculpt, which we suppose they'd do for Jabba), complete with light saber. The jar separates at the shoulders for easy access to Vader's delicious cookie insides. Of course, you'll have to keep replenishing the cookie supply yourself. We may have a direct line to the Dark Side, but they haven't yet given us access to the cookie materializer. Product Specifications Officially licensed Lucasfilm collectible Cookie jar shaped like your favorite Sith Lord, Darth Vader Separates at the shoulders for cookie access Made of sculpted ceramic and perfect to the last detail Approximately 11" x 6.5" x 13"



ADOLF HITLER AND GUNNERY SERGEANT

  

Star Wars Darth Vader Lightsaber Laser Pointer Star Wars Darth Vader Lightsaber Laser Pointer
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away… some bad ass dudes fought with laser swords called Lightsabers. The Lightsaber Laser Pointers are roughly one third scale versions of the Lightsaber hilts carried by the Sith lord Darth Vader. Not only that, they double as red dot laser pointers. Laser pointers are just as useful as the force. They are perfect if you are teaching a class and need to point out the important equation that is written on the board. It is super fun to make your pets chase the dot around. And, just like a Lightsaber, it can cut through enemies like butter. (Well, maybe not...) The Lightsaber Laser Pointers are fully functional red dot lasers and super stylish mini Lightsaber replicas.

That Vader is a class act, I am sure you would agree.
