    result My Own Darth Vader

    After years of tracking down an exact replica prop - I finally got my hands on this beauty for my office

    The statue itself stands six feet seven inches (6'7"), the same height as actor David Prowse. The base is approximately seven inches (7") tall, which puts this prop`s overall height at roughly seven feet two inches (7'2"), from helmet to floor

    My kids would love that though, not sure the Mrs would....

    Actually, the thought of his rich deep baritone voice has given me a slight chubby..

    Nice replica though - how much did that set you back?

    That's superb! Now all you need to do is hook it up to a Motion Sensor PIR connected to an MP3 player full of quotes. Now that would shit the kids up!

    One trip to Florida they had one for sale in the star tours shop a good few thousand dollars, 2 years later we went back I had the cash in the bank to buy one if they had them and they had sold. I have no idea how I would have got it home but I so wanted one.

    never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups!:thumbup:

    I wonder how many times Rap will say something to his DV and then pretend to be getting force choked before the novelty wears off.

    very cool rap,

    however i would have gone for pinhead myself
    You know he grew up as a little shitspark from the old shitflint and then he turned into a shitbonfire and driven by the winds of his monumental ignorance he turned into a raging shitfirestorm. If I get to be married to Barb I'll have total control of Sunnyvale and then I can unleash the shitnami tidal wave that will engulf Ricky and extinguish his shitflames forever. And with any luck he'll drown in the undershit of that wave. Shitwaves.
