Darth Vader Collectables.
Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith, comes in many shapes and sizes. All of the following collectibles have been available in Australia, and a few also available overseas:-
(Pictures will follow in the next few weeks)
Darth Vader Ceramic Money Box -- Keep your credits safe from rebel scum, in this ceramic head of Darth Vader, complete with chocolate coins. Comes in a special collector's box, and is available from Target and K-Mart stores.
Darth Vader Lolly Jar -- Your lollies are well protected with the Dark Lord standing over them. This clear plastic jar features a most impressive 14cm complete sculpt of Darth Vader. Available from Target stores, with your choice of lollies.
Darth Vader Pen Pop -- From the makers of Chupa-Chups comes a handy collectible. At one end, it's a pen, and at the other end the head of Darth Vader. With the flick of a switch, the Dark Lord's head splits open to reveal a tasty Chupa-Chup inside. Good for sucking and writing. Available at Coles, Target & K-Mart.
Chocolate Darth Vader on a Stick -- What more can we say? It's a chocolate Darth Vader, and he's painfully mounted on a stick. Wrapped in Darth Vader foil, it's available at Target.
Pizza Hut Darth Vader Cup-Topper -- One of a set of four, originally released to coincide with Star Wars Special Edition in cinemas, Vader doesn't look his best with a straw pierced through his head. No longer available. Try collectors shops for this little ripper.
Darth Vader Bubble Bath -- Clean up rebel scum with this wonderful bubble bath. Featuring a 16cm full sculpt of Vader, standing on part of the Death Star. Don't ask where the cap for the bubble bath is. Available from Target stores.
Remote Controlled Darth Vader -- Around 25cm high and seated on four wheels, this collectible looks like the lovechild of Vader and R2. Although it has limited mobility, it does come complete with flashing lightsaber, and the voice of James Earl Jones ("You underestimate the power of the dark side"). Great to play with in the dark, available only from Big-W and Dick Smith.
Darth Vader Kite -- One of many Star Wars related kites to be released this year, this one has a picture of Vader's Tie-Fighter flanked by his two wingmen, racing down the trench of the Death Star. A good fun collectible, but not of really high quality. Check out K-Mart and Safeway for this.
Plastic Darth Vader Mug (Applause) -- Small plastic mug of Vader's head. One of a set available from Toys-R-Us. Great for the kids, but not much practical use.
Darth Vader Photo Mosaic -- (800mm X 660mm) Fantastic picture of Vader's head made up of hundreds of little frames from the movies. No explaination could do this one justice. Looks even better when viewed from a distance. A must for any collection room. Also comes in Yoda. Available from Star Walking Inc.
Darth Vader Jelly Tin -- A real gem. This large lolly tin contains Star Wars jellies on the inside, but the real treasure is on the outside. The lid is a 3-D raised picture of Vader's head, with Death Star in the background. A must for any Darth Vader collector, available from Target.
Darth Vader Slippers -- Just what you need to relax after a hard day at the Empire. Slip on slippers with the Dark Lords head embedded in the toe. Available in both kids and adult sizes they are a must for the avid collector. Available from K-Mart store and Target.
