There have been several Vader alarm clocks in the past, but the latest exclusive from the official StarWarsShop might very well be the most effective at getting you up. You see, each morning will be met with an alarm and the projected shadow of Darth Vader on the wall, ready to strike. There are no details on how big the projected image actually is, but if it’s life-size, you might be headed back to bedwetting.

Darth Vader’s ultimate goal was always galactic domination. Since that dream was squashed by Luke and his cohorts he has been forced to accept the demeaning job of helping the galaxy by keeping tables safe from water rings.

This Darth Vader Plush is supposed to look soft and cuddly. I will give it the soft part, but it looks a bit more like a giant insect than a cuddly version of Vader. Still, it is a much less threatening version than an actual Vader look-alike and also features familiar dark side phrases when pressed. Ideal for anyone who loves the movies but who is scared to death of the actual antagonists.
