Revenge of the Sith soundtrack with bonus Palpatine! Well, and a DVD. But mostly Ian McDiarmid. Oddly enough, does not come out on April 2nd with the rest of the prequel stuff…
We also get a look at some new toys. The highlight? An Obi-Wan lightsaber that, um, vibrates:
Obi-Wan Kenobi Electronic Lightsaber — Turn it on and it vibrates with the power of the mystic energy field that surrounds all living things.
Mystical power of the Force. Sure.
I made the mistake of looking at the vibrating Obi-Wan lightsaber while my office-mate was watching.
Much guffawing ensued.
The DVD for the soundtrack looks fantastic!
Ok, this is even worse than the TPM lightsabers, with the packaging that said “grows to 6 feet long!”
Obi-Wan’s electronic “lightsaber”? Action figures with “slashing action”? LOL! I love this marketing campaign.
