AirPods in Darth Vader’s Head? There’s a Case for That
Toggle Dark Mode
If you’ve ever wanted to keep your AirPods in Darth Vader’s head (and what self-respecting Star Wars fan wouldn’t?), then Casetify has you covered.
This weekend is Star Wars Day (May the 4th Be With You), and Casetify has expanded its collection of Star Wars-themed accessories to commemorate the occasion, with some limited edition versions added to its usual assortment of Co-Lab cases, plus phone charms, magnetic charging stands, watch bands, and more.
This includes the Darth Vader 3D AirPods Case, which is easily the most over-the-top of the entire collection. At $150, it costs more than the basic non-ANC AirPods 4, but that’s okay because it only works with the AirPods Pro.
This pricey kit includes a typical silicon AirPods case with a limited edition Darth Vader chest plate design, plus the Darth Vader Collectible earbuds case that’s shaped like the Sith Lord’s head and sits on a display base. However, it does more than just look menacing. Pressing a button on the case will play a special authentic breathing sound effect that should be lots of fun for anyone who’s ever wanted to take a walk on the Dark Side.
For the deep-pocketed Star Wars fan who wants it all, Casetify is also offering a “Power of the Force Collector Edition Set” that includes the Darth Vader AirPods head case, plus four iPhone cases, two AirPods cases, two laptop cases, three grip stands, three wallets, two earbuds pouches, three cardholders stands, a collectible phone charm, and a collectible earbuds case. It’s only available for the iPhone 16 Pro or iPhone 16 Pro Max and will set you back over $1,000.
Thankfully, individual items are more reasonably priced. Casetify is well-known for its “Co-Lab” collections, and its Impact Series iPhone cases typically come in at around $70 regardless of style. The limited-edition Star Wars cases are no exception. You can check out the entire new Star Wars: Rebellion & Empire collection here.
Casetify’s Co-Lab selections are remarkably extensive, and it’s not the first time the company has gone with a big giant head for one of its special edition products. Last fall, it released a similar RX-78-2 Gundam AirPods case as part of a collection based on the popular mecha series. The year before, we saw an AirPods case version of Neon Genesis Evangelion’s Eva-01.
Leaving aside those unique entries, Casetify has plenty of Co-Lab cases and watch bands that cover sports, lifestyle, anime, art, entertainment, and even K-pop, including licensed designs from Disney and the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), Peanuts, Harry Potter, The Office, Barbie, BTS, and even Oreo cookies. They’re also surprisingly protective, so while you’re definitely paying a premium for the designs, you’re still getting a reasonably solid case with eight-foot drop protection and MagSafe compatibility, not merely the cheap “skins” that used to be all the rage.
