Did Yoda revert to his younger self when he became one with the force? No

Did Obi Wan become younger when he became one with the force? Nope

So why the hell did Vader go from being old to a younger version after he died?

LAME. I HATE GEORGE LUCAS!!!! NERD RAGE!

He was always young Anakin wasn't he? or Younger looking. I think they just put the new character in with the movies to make more sense. They couldnt have put Burnt to shit paraplegic Anakin in

Nope, he was old. Maybe 60ish looking, while Obi Wan looks to be in his 70's

No original Jedi had the old guy (forgot the actor) that you see when Vader removes his helmet in Jedi... then nuked him in favor of Mannequin Skywalker... f'ing lame.  Major nerd rage when they first did it.  Still some lingering nerd rage too. It still makes no sense to me either OP.  I feel your pain.

ETA: I see someone added the correct pic.  Anakin didn't die when he became Vader. He simply suppressed that side of himself and he comes back when he chucks Palpatine over the edge, so properly he should be old Anakin as a ghost, not dopey Anakin.

Stupid question. He died and is now at PEACE. He soul reverted to when he was last at peace with the force. Those are images of happy jedi ghosts. Dude I know this and I dont even give a shit about Star Wars.

Because Lucas just LOVES to fuck with shit.

Its his shit and I guess he can fuck it up as he sees fit, but I'm never spending another cent on it, either.

I have no want to ever see anything SW related again. He drove all the fan out of me.

Yep, it works both ways though, since Vader changed at the very end too.

Kind of odd since Vader refers to Obi Wan as "old man" in Star Wars. Also, the age gap is a lot bigger in the prequels. In fact, between Episodes 1 and 2, Anakin is the only person who really aged at all. Man Lucas made a train wreck of those movies.
