Japanese manufacturer Happinet (we’re not making that up) is taking pre-orders for the “Rain Lightsaber.” Now you (for only $85US) can turn that idle umbrella into a lethal staff-of-doom! We’d drop the cash if only the screen opened into the shape of Lord Vader’s helmet allowing us to peer menacingly through his eyes while protecting our combovers. Hint: if you plan to video tape yourself shadow fighting with one of these then please, we beg you, do not share the tape with friends — they will upload it to BitTorrent. And for crissake, do NOT fill it with gasoline!
