Didnt Anakin find it a smidge suspicious that his master just happened to have one laying around... in Sith Lord Black, no less?

"Do you think I could get this in black? And could you make it shiny? Shiny is in right now... right?"

I remember arguing about that in 1978 when the action figures were just coming out and I was really Just a tad too old to be playing with them. We had no idea WHAT they did (and it was better that way). Good question, MB.
I also liked the helmet better before it was all symetrical and "perfect" looking.

The missing segment, (what is not truly revealed in ROTS), is the actual timeframe involved. As we watch the film, we are assuming the events being shown (Vader in the medical ward, and soon going into the black suit by Palpatine,.and Padme's twin pregnancy)..are in real time, and are simoultaneously occuring as the camera pans back and forth between these simoultaneous events as they occur.
I believe, and this is my personal interpretation of the story, that what is being shown towards the end of the film are brief, condensed narratives,.that arent based on real time, and are not occuring simoultaneously.
I believe Lucas just wanted to cut to the meat of each scene, and show each event as breifly as possible (Padme giving birth, Vader getting the suit, Yoda retreating to Dagobah,.and Luke and Leia being taken into care at their respective new homes)
Lucas, realizing he was on a definite time constraint when writing the script for ROTS, and having to bridge the storyline gaps between AOTC and ANH, ..it became a give in to resort to utilizing the condensed scenes.
So, regarding the scenes where Vader is undergoing medical attention by the droids,..the scene where Palpatine informs Vader of Padme's death,..and Palpatine showing Vader the construction of the Death Star...who is to really say,.how much time has passed from one given scene to the next?

From the DVD Commentary he says he wanted to tie up all the threads between the OT and the PT. That's why it looked and felt like a checklist.
Time constraint? He had 20 years. The moral: Don't leave your homework until the last minute :-)
