Darth Vader Mask

When I was young, my cousin also had a Darth Vader mask. Though that was over 20 years ago, I remember it very clearly. My cousin was very into the Star Wars trilogy, and we would often have fake sword fights in the backyard. We would use tree branches as swords, though we were always careful not to really hurt each other. He would often wear a Darth Vader mask when we were playing, even though it was far from his favorite character. Even know Darth Vader was deemed a bad guy he was still immensely popular with the kids.

Today, the Darth Vader mask is something that many kids play with, and the sound effects are very real. When I was a kid I had to make my own sound effects, and I have to wonder if that wasn’t more fun. Though the sound effects of the new Darth Vader mask sounds much like James Earl Jones, I think we had more fun using our own voice instead. I wish there were more toys today that allowed a child to use their own imagination instead of supplying the noises themselves. I almost feel strange around toys that can do so much for themselves as it is.

However, unless I can find an old Darth Vader mask I guess I will have to get her the talking one if she decided she is no longer afraid of it. My husband momentarily considered buying it for himself, but when he thought about how scared she was he put it back on the shelf for another day. Perhaps in a few years she will enjoy these toys more than she does now, but until that time, I am happy to make the sound effects for her. The Darth Vader mask may not even be out by then, but I am sure they will be another talking toy on the shelf that she will wish to have.
