What’s Darth Vader Got Planned For CES?

Well this is maybe something! We’ve gotten word of a Star Wars-related announcement coming to CES on Thursday. Stormtroopers! Darth Vader himself! All wrapped up in some sort of announcement that’s not so very far, far away.

The official lingo:

The Empire is headed to Vegas, baby. Darth Vader, accompanied by a legion of his finest Imperial troops, will address emissaries from “a galaxy far, far away” for a most impressive announcement at the Consumer Electronics Show – Thursday, January 6th at 11:30 AM PST Panasonic Booth #9408.

Be prepared… The Force is strong with this one.

Let the wild speculation begin! I would say “novelty USB drives,” but that’s been done.

      I think the Force is trying to tell me something…perhaps I’m supposed to buy a Panasonic 3DTV…or maybe I’m supposed to stay far away from them, they’ll turn me to the dark side…it’s kinda hard to tell right now…
      :P

    I find their use of the word Baby disturbing.

    They’re going to announce that they’ve successfully created functioning lightsabers!

    Lightsabers!

    I’m also pretty certain it’s going to be a Blu Ray re-release. With all the indignity of Hayden Christensen in Return Of The Jedi!

    This could not have been timed worse (just when Plinkett’s Episode 3 review came out)
