er yes let's forget he built C3P0

also anakin grew up in mos espa - the lars farm is near anchorhead which is nearer to mos eisley and who knows how far from mos espa

regarding vader not picking up on luke and leia - the force is not a completely open corridor into another persons mind, especially the strong mind of a person with latent force talent, as mentioned before leia did not know of vader being her father so he couldn't have read that from her anyway. when luke was on the MF on the death star his presence would have been masked by the probably stronger and certainly more familiar presence of obi-wan. by the time luke and vader are flying through the DS trench vader is beginning to get a handle on things

the biggest question for me is will anakin even know padme's pregnant in the revisited saga
that may be hard to avoid, but if padme survives in these edits then vader would have no reason to believe his unborn children died with her, thus making his not picking up something from luke and leia harder to buy

this is getting complicated
ady come and clean up this mess for us
