Darth Vader Voice Changer Helmet

is for sale at Amazon.

Had to share this customer review

"As the manager of a team of ten employees, I could sense that I was losing my grasp on them. I tried a number of different techniques to get them back on board, but after resorting to an unsuccessful five-week phase of using profanity to emphasize my demands, I realized that I was beginning to run out of options. I needed something that would reinforce the fact that I was the authority, and that my team had to do everything I said.

With the recent DVD release of the original "Star Wars" trilogy, I was reminded of the command and fear that the evil Darth Vader had over people. His menacing appearance and voice were just what I needed to bring my team back together and achieve the levels of productivity I strived for.

The mask arrived at the perfect time. Morale was low, and my employees were starting to undermine everything I told them. I found their lack of faith disturbing, so I scheduled an emergency meeting for my team. Showing up five minutes late -- waiting until the tension was thick -- I made my dramatic entrance into the room. Wearing all black and my Darth Vader Voice Changer Helmet, I could literally see beads of sweat instantly form on their foreheads. My imposing visage made my statement clear -- I was the boss.

Utilizing the helmet's voice changer and actual pre-recorded movie lines, my employees quickly recognized that their ability to be insubordinate was insignificant next to the power of upper management.

I may have needed the Darth Vader Voice Changer Helmet to command respect from my team, but because of it, they may yet be of some use to me."

Re: Darth Vader Voice Changer Helmet

I own one.

It scares my cats.

My wife, however, is not affected. The Force is strong with her.

I have a Lord Helmet one. I like to play with my Spaceballs actions figures while wearing it.

Re: Darth Vader Voice Changer Helmet

We used to call one of my Rugby buddies Lord Helmut because his ______ of his manly _________ was quite large. So I was a bit confused.

However, it seems we are both correct (from the website)- - Plot Outline: Planet Spaceball's President Scroob sends Lord Dark Helmet to steal Planet Druidia's abundant supply of air to replenish their own, and only Lone Starr can stop them

I went from 10,700 to 3,700????

Yet Krono went from 29,000 to 21,000 and now back to 28,000 - - how is this possible?

I haven't figured that out yet, unless he posted 7000 times last night, which, with Krono, is a legit possibility.
