Just when you think that every possible opportunity for Star Wars merchandising has been explored, the folks at England's Wesco Limited come up with this 3D Vader helmet clock. Sure, clocks have been done before, but this particular version features glowing red eyes and a breathing sound effect that kicks in when the lights go out. It's kind of like having a perverted demon lurking around in the darkness while you sleep. Now, that is $35 well spent! [Star Wars Shop via GeekAlerts]

Star Wars Flashers Use The Force (i.e., Flashing, Spinning Heads) to Alert You to Calls
Always had something against Darth Vader and his many Stormtrooper cronies? Why not denigrate them to the lowest forms of consumer electronics by decapitating their shrunken heads and turning those into nifty Star Wars phone flashers? Now if you're in a way-too-noisy cantina, or if you're phone is on silent, the head of the Dark Lord (or Stormtrooper No. 37291018) will spin 'round and 'round to make sure you don't miss your call. How droll. $9 a head. [Firebox via Random Good Stuff]

Bobble Head Vader is So Ashamed of You
This bobble head Darth Vader is designed for your monitor, where he can look down on you in shame. What has disgusted him so? You. Slob. I mean, you were the chosen one! Yes, you! You always knew it, too, but gave up on moving objects with your mind at an early age while settling for a brief stint at community college and a decent office job. Sure, you've got a nice dog and a decent girlfriend, but you could have been wielding lightsabers and sharing awkward sexual tension with your sister. You're so lame.

Official Star Wars USB Hubs May be Best USB Products Ever
Forget Dr Who's TARDIS, sci-fi USB hub fans (come on... you know who you are) are going to go bonkers over these official R2D2 and Vader USB hubs. R2's head moves, he lights up and emits genuine Star Wars sound effects every three minutes, while Vader just seems to have the sound effects and glowing eyes. *Shiver*... menacing. Of course they also have four full-speed USB sockets on the front, and come with three feet of USB cable. Available in July for around $66... but that's in Japan, USB hub fans.

Actual Video of Drunk Darth Vader Attacking Jedi
Remember the case of the drunkard dressing up as Vader and beating some Jedi-wannabees with a crutch? Here's the vid. I can't believe someone got charged with assault for this. Footage of the actual attack just takes all the juice away from the tale. I mean, in the old days, you had to take off someone's arm or head, or scorch their Jedi robes at least. Kids these days.
