Darth Vader Demands That You Give Me Candy

Filed under: Misc. Gadgets

I wouldn’t want to have to whip out my lightsaber, so I recommend you give me all of your candy before I have to break out the power of the force. Nice line, isn’t it? You might want to keep that line in mind if you plan on using this Darth Vader Trick Or Treat Pail for your candy gathering journey on the 31st.

The 6-inch tall pail might not be able to hold as much as the old pillow case you usually haul around, but what it lacks in storage size it makes up for in pure brute scare tactics. You can get your very own for $4 from Amazon. And it doesn’t include any pussy reflectors either. Pff, what are we? Children? -smash, vroom- Ouch. FYI, I’ll be pissed if half of my bag is filled with those crappy jello candies my Asian neighbors give out every year. — Andrew Dobrow

Darth Vader Limited Edition Lightsaber Umbrella

Filed under: Misc. Gadgets

darth_vader_umbrella_1.jpg

What will they think of next? Maybe a Lightsaber-themed sex toy? Eh, its most likely already been done. Not only can a Lightsaber protect you from the Alliance and change your TV station, but it can also apparently protect your hair from liquid droplets of destruction, or as you might like to call it…rain. This Japanese-made limited-edition Darth Vader Lightsaber umbrella comes with impressive telescopic action power and a red nylon sleeve.

For its price of $90, you would expect some flashing lights or Star Wars sound effects to make the replica complete, but depressingly, special effects are not included. Though, it is the onlly umbrella on the market that will protect you from rain AND imperial stormtroopers. There’s only 4 left in stock over at Amazon, so if I were you, which i very well might be, I’d go pick one up. — Andrew Dobrow

Darth Duck Fadar has blinking lights for no reason

Filed under: Household, Misc. Gadgets

Here is a product of an item that showcases the overuse of geekiness. The Darth Duck Fadar is a totally useless flashing rubber ducky which glorifies such habits as placing blinking electronics in water. Not a good idea under any other circumstance. Evil ducky’s seems to be the new black.

The Darth Duck starts blinking LED illumination lights when the evil duck is in contact with water. Knowing some Star Wars fans, many lose many days of bathing because of their inability to drop their Darth collectibles so they can jump in the shower. Just use caution in a house with children. You don’t want your kid going into the shower with the toaster thinking it’s safe. I, for one, would feel uncomfortable with Darth Vader watching me bathe. Available now for £6.49 ($12). — Andrew Dobrow

Darth Vader is bigger than you remember, for no apparent reason (four times bigger in fact)

darth vader 400%

For reasons that escape us, Medicom decided that designing a 12″ tall vinyl Star-Wars toy would be a good idea. For those of you keeping score at home, that’s a 400% growth from the original 3″ size.

Both the helmet and the light saber are removable, just in case any sand-people might be trying to break into your house. Why in the world would anyone need a 12″ Darth Vadar doll? We can see why die hard collectors would want it. But for those of you who are sane, you might find it as odd as us.

Odds are we’re buying one. — Andrew Dobrow
