Nerds Rejoice At Clone Trooper Blaster and Lightsaber for Wii Official Star Wars Wii accessories for Clone Wars: Republic Heroes

Just in time for the September release of the Clone Wars: Republic
Heroes game for Wii, BDA Consumer Products, Chinese Champions of
Controller Creation, has created a set of officially-licensed Nintendo
Wii controllers designed to resemble lightsabers and a clone trooper
blaster. This is truly the stuff of dweeb dreams.
Licensed by Lucasfilm Ltd. and marketed under BDA's POWER A brand, the
POWER A Light-Up Lightsabers are sculpted replicas of the famed weapons
used by Anakin Skywalker and Jedi Master Yoda. Designed for use with the
Wii Remote, an on/off switch allows players to control the light-up
feature of the lightsaber. The Anakin lightsaber is illuminated with a
blue glow, while Yoda's has a green glow. The Wii Remote fits in the
lightsaber handle that has been specially designed to help alleviate
Wookie Wrist.

The Clone Trooper Blaster was created to accompany the The Clone Wars:
Republic Heroes game and is designed for use with both the Wii Remote
and Nunchuk. As if this weren't enough, it also comes with a set of
decals that allow you to add a battle-worn look to your blaster or keep
track of your virtual kills. That way, when your friends come over to
admire your skills (and laugh at you), they'll know you are a true Star
Wars hero. Just remember to put these nerd nick-knacks under your bed
before you invite a girl over. You do want to increase your chances,
don't you?

There's no price information available on these Wii-riffic offerings
just yet, but we do know they are set to hit store shelves sometime this
fall. May the force be with you.
