    Darth Vader’s armor and helmet, owned by an unnamed American collector, is on the auction block and is expected to sell for an estimated $250,000 in November. While it’s doesn’t come with the lightsaber it does include a small vial of absolute nerd cred that you can dose yourself with next time you roll through Comic Con. Think of how many kisses you’ll get at the next PAX nerd orgy.

    No word on if they’ll be selling uniforms from other popular Star Wars characters like R2-D2, the Jawa, and Captain Picard.
