New EPISODE II Photos Hit The Web!! Check Out The Future Darth Vader!!

Hey, everyone. "Moriarty" here with some rumblings from the Lab.

I just got the heads-up to go check out Sir Steve's Guide, one of the oldest STAR WARS rumor sites on the web. I remember when this guy was breaking exclusive EPISODE I images left and right thanks to friends at the toy companies involved. Well, he's done it again, reprinting seven EPISODE II images that were provided by HYPERSPACE, Inc., evidently. These aren't as slick as the "EPISODE II Select" images that The official site has been running for the last few weeks, but there's some things here we haven't seen before. In particular, there's a shot of Hayden Christensen in costume taking a smoke break, and just looking at how they've got him dressed should give any STAR WARS fan chills. This is the man who will be Darth Vader one day, and he's striking in full Jedi garb, as is a bearded Ewan McGregor in a few shots. If you want to check the direct link, just go to this page, and enjoy!! I know I did.

Hey... real quick update. Looks like the photos originated in a tabloid called THE DAILY TELEGRAPH, and HYPERSPACE, Inc. was the online origin of the photos.

"Moriarty" out.
