We're just going to leave this here...

This could all be an elaborate spoof from a Getplox.com. We don't care, just this image made us feel like giddy 6 year olds again.

Plox told us...

"Our new Star Wars Death Star speaker is an officially licensed product with some fantastic technology inside, including unique NFC codes to guarantee authenticity of the product!...

They’re available to pre-order from 2 September and release in October this year."

We've no other info.

There have been fan-made and unofficial variants created before. But this claims to be the real deal.

For now we'll dream the dream and review it on arrival in our offices.
