If you’re working on plans for a Death Star III, then there’s a new gadget in the galaxy designed to secure your vital blueprints: a Star Wars-themed USB memory stick.

Star Wars USB sticks: choose your favourite

The USB drives are available as one of four characters, including Register Hardware’s personal favourite, Darth Vader. The head of each character pops off to reveal a USB connector and Star Wars content is pre-loaded onto every stick.

Each stick arrives in a plastic 'force-field'
