Darth Vader Tattoo Design T-Shirt: Love It or Leave It?

Marc Ecko is really establishing himself as the mainstream go-to for Star Wars apparel, after having introduced the Boba Fett Hoodie and Storm Trooper Hoodie.

And he's not content to stop there. There's a whole SW shop up - with one of my favorite new pieces being this Darth Vader T-Shirt with a tattoo-inspired design ($34). It's sort of Ed Hardy meets Star Wars, and the intersection is so fun and kitschy, I think I might be into it.

It's definitely a way I've never seen Luke's father - but is that a good or bad thing?

Boba Fett Hoodie: Storm the Grocery Store

I have a sneaking suspicion that hoodie-type of girls are also Star Wars type of girls, which is good news for the maker of this Boba Fett Hoodie (although $98. . . seriously, Ecko?! What kind of rich nerds are you hoping to reach?).

Maybe put your boyfriend in this one, you in the Storm Trooper Hoodie, and just see what kind of looks you get toolin' around town running your errands.

Looks of fear, I'd assume.

Share Why You Love iGoogle and Get More Stickers

Everyone went crazy for Gmail stickers when they showed up (get them quick before they're gone!), and now they've made more for you to get your hands on - and all you have to do is profess your love for iGoogle.

Write a story or shoot a video of you saying why you love your iGoogle page, be it for its customization or ability to keep you organized, and submit it to their Share the Love page. Check out their sample video below.

Everyone who enters will get a sheet of iGoogle artist theme laptop stickers (including the themes of Radiohead, Michael Kors, Diane von Furstenberg, Marc Ecko, Kate Spade and Paul Frank), and the best entrants will be showcased by Google. I need to see these stickers though, first and foremost. Nice bribe, Google. Update: here's a shot of the stickers!

Dexter Coming to a Console Near You

Showtime's hit series Dexter, one of my pal Buzz's new faves, not only has been hanging out (with a little less blood) on CBS lately, but also has its own web series on YouTube dubbed Dexter: The Dark Defender. And soon you'll be seeing Dexter hitting the shelves, not only as each season's boxed set, but as a video game to boot.

Entering into a production agreement with Marc Ecko Entertainment, Showtime announced yesterday that it will be bringing the award winning (and totally awesome) series to your gaming console. To learn more about this video game, read more.

Marc Fernandez, VP of Marc Ecko Entertainment seems pretty stoked at the chance to translate the show into a game:

"Dexter is the extremely rare TV show with enough layers of action and tension to translate perfectly into a compelling video game. Our game designers, writers, and artists are going to give Dexter’s morally complex world the kind of interactivity that gamers will love."

Although no specifics were announced as to which consoles it will be available for, or even a target release date, I'm betting a game about a serial killer hunting other serial killers will be a hit, just like the show!
