This Darth Vader alarm clock/radio from Sakar is sure to scare the crap out of you if you happen to roll over at 3am and stare into his glowing red LED eyeballs.

Hours display in the left eyeball, and minutes display in the right one (when facing Vader, of course). In addition to telling time and letting you listen to its built-in radio, the Dark Lord can also play tunes from your iPod or other external audio device, thanks to an AUX jack. Heck, the Death Star didn’t even include an AUX jack!

Of course, the best part is that you can set the alarm to wake you with digitized sound-bites of Vader himself. What does he say? We’ll have to wait until the clock ships this August to find out. But I’d like to think he’ll say something like “Today will be a day long remembered. It has seen the death of Kenobi, and will soon see the end of the Rebellion. But first, it’s time for some Crunch Berries.” or maybe “I sense something. A presence I’ve not felt since… you went to bed last night.”

You can pre-order the Darth Vader alarm clock radio over at the Star Wars Shop for $32 (USD).
