Surely you've all heard Vader's words before he died – "Luke, I am your... father" – but few of you know the truth about them. Recent investigations revealed enough evidence to prove that Vader's last words were mistakenly dubbed and he actually said to Luke Skywalker that his spirit would keep living inside one of the young Jedi's kitchen appliances; namely, his toaster. Admittedly, there are at least a couple of Star Wars fans with angry looks, but this piece of news is indeed good: you can see Vader each and every day, on your breakfast plate, if you manage to get your hands on the Darth Vader Toaster. 

Among the innumerable SW-themed gadgets, fashion designs and apparel, games and posters, here's a new and very hot one that also boasts real functionality.

While the Darth Vader Toaster runs on electricity, you can rest assured you'll never need the Force by your side to be able to enjoy crispy bread slices bearing the burned imprint of the dark helmet. This toaster might seem a bit too much, with its shiny dark and almost ominous presence among the traditionally white appliances around the kitchen; nevertheless, we can vouch that your every friend and visitor will just go "wow!" upon seeing it for the first time and ask for a "vaderized" piece of toast.

Now, you can adorn the dark and fearsome figure of Darth Vader with onion rings, butter and all sorts of colored food, exposing the Sith's funnies and brighter side. Despite the fact that the bread turns over to the darker side, it is still a very healthy aliment, especially since you can also choose the amount of "darkness" that goes into each slice.

Vaderized bread abuse isn't documented yet so there's absolutely no info on whether your Jedi skills will grow stronger or you'll start leaning towards the gloomy side of the Force. You can get Vader toasting your bread for some decent $55. Should we end with "Come to the dark side! We have ... toast"?
