random camera phone picture
I dug this baby out of the garage.
A plastic cup (in very bad condition) from 1980. Boba Fett, Bounty Hunter. There's a circle with a picture of Vader next to Fett that just says Darth Vader, but he doesn't get a title caption. Darth Vader, Bad Ass MoFo would have worked.

John Shaft would totally have sued him.

'Bad Ass MoFo' doesn't sound very 1980. What was the 1980 equivalent?

Michele,
Awesome! I have the same one, also in terrible shape, and a second with Chewbacca, C3PO and R2D2. Must have gotten them when I was six or so. The gloss is peeling off the side but I won't throw it out - still good for a hot chocolate or a coffee every now and then... :)

Now I wish we hadn't moved a few times as a kid, leading my parents to give away my Star Wars stuff...
BTW, did Vader have a title other than "Lord"? It's not like an Empire to get stingy with titles. What's the next step up from Grand Moff?

I don't think there was really a slot on the org chart for "Sith Lord."

Holy crap! I had those and had completely forgotten about them. They're long gone, now. The colors faded quickly... It's amazing the reactions I can have to pictures of old toys/souvenirs like that...
