R2-D2 and Darth Vader USB Hubs

I’m quite happy with my current Belkin hub/dock, but anyone of these two cool Star Wars USB hubs would be more than welcome in case of a switch.

Both hubs, one in the shape of R2-D2 and one Darth Vader bust, will light up their eyes, move their heads and play sound effects every three minutes when being connected to a computer. The sound effects can be switched off.

The Star Wars USB Hubs measures 90(D) x 100(W) x 150(H) mm and will cost around $66 when they are released in Tokyo next month.

Update: Andrew over at the great OhGizmo gadgets and design blog managed to find a short video clip of the R2-D2 hub in action:

Hit the play button or head over to YouTube to watch the video there.
