With my luck, if I were to be awakened by Vader, in my dreamlike stupor I would grab my ever-close lightsaber and whack him on the noggin with my plastic blade.
Can you imagine the look on Vader's face (behind the helmet) if you whacked him with a fake lightsaber with the intent of hitting him with a real lightsaber? Incredulous wouldn't even begin....

Target lied!
The call was NOT from Vader but from a Stormie! Argh! And it was 45 minutes late!

LOL. It was something like "This is TK-whatever on behalf of Lord Vader. Your oresence is requested at the Target 2-Day Sale. blah... blah... blah..." Then something like "Once your mission is completed, a contingent from the Empire will meet you in the parking lot" or something like that.
Never did get my second call either.

I heard that the Vader call was a Stormie talking, but had Vader breathing in the background. ??

I liked the commercial. With Ice T talking to vader and calling him Darth. I considered signing up for the call, but knew I was going to be up and running around early with the rest of the house still sleeping. So I didn't. Thankfully I didn't have to work the morning shift at Toys R Us, but I did go in at noon. They still don't have the Jedi Scene pack 3 and 4. My TRU is so small, it takes them forever to get the new figures in.
I did hit the Best Buy sell. ;D New Monitor...I can actually make out the colors, and a few other toys. ;D I am still recovering from the lack of sleep, over 30 hours of work at TRU and fighting a head cold. I am so glad I got to come to my day job. I get to sit for 8 hours with out being bothered.

We have the commercial taped as Bill had to run to our doctor (yes, our doctor is open seven days a week all year round, which is why we asked for Patient First for our medical insurance) and I taped that part of macy's Parade for him. He just watched that--twice! Caught the trooper. Anyway I went to Target.com but could never get on as said busy. Anyway, Bill the trooper said if he had been woken up (and we had clock set for 4:40AM for me as is) he would have cuss out the dark lord--LOL). Oh, Jedimom, he said to tell you says something about stormtroopers, doesn't it, if 45 minutes late. LOL

You could choose your time for teh call, thank goodness. I had mine set for 9:00 and 9:15 when I knew we'd be up and around. The 9:00 came at 9:47 and I never got the second one. Oh well.
Oh, and tell Bill now I know the real reason the Empire lost... they couldn't get to the battle on time!
