Also includes four authentic lightsaber sound effects that have been digitally recorded from the movie ''Revenge of the Sith''. A durable metal hilt looks and feels like a real lightsaber, along with a sturdy, permanently attached blade. Creates cool sound effects such as power-up, idle hum, clash and power-down! |

This is a really cool thing to own if you're a big Star Wars fan. I got it in the mail a few days ago and have been having fun with it since.
The metal hilt is very durable and well constructed. It's not an exact movie replica, the hilt is a little bigger than the ones they used in the movies because of all the electronics they had to stuff in there. But it's not overly huge or anything, like those cheap $15 you can buy at any toy store.
The blade is just awesome. The bright blue shines and glows even in well lit environments. But when you turn off all the lights and turn it on, it just looks really cool the way it glows in the dark. I thought it was also cool how when you turn it on or off, you can see the glow of the blade expanding and retracting as if it was a "real" lightsaber.
Now as someone else said, this isn't really the type of toy you just want to go around swinging madly and stage your own Anakin VS Obi-Wan fights (even though it will make a clashing noise when the blade is tapped). That's not to say it's not durable, because it is very well constructed, but I just don't think it would be wise to go bashing the blade into stuff.
It sounds really awesome too, just like in the movies. And the batteries (it takes 3 AA batteries [not included]) are quick and easy to install, you don't even need a screwdriver or anything.
I really see this as more of a collector's item (it even comes with a stand to proudly display it), something to show off to your friends, or maybe as a really good costume piece for halloween. I'm a bit of a sword collector myself, so I kind of see this as a nice addition to my collection.
If you've ever wanted to know what it feels like to hold the power of a lightsaber in your hand, this is probably the closest thing you're ever gonna get. |
Total Awesomeness!

| This is my first "Force FX" lightsaber, and I must say that I am completely satisfied. It lights up and shuts down realistically, with accurate sounds. It also makes noises when you move it around, and of course when you strike the blade on something. I don't know how good the Master Replicas were, but I'm sure this is just as good, if not better. |
For Star Wars fans....

| My 8 year old son got this for Christmas, and its the coolest lightsaber! The sound effects are great, and the blade is as realistic as you can get. It has not broken yet in the hands of an 8 year old, so I think we are doing pretty good. It seems very well made. Hands down, if you are a mega Star Wars fan, you'll love this lightsaber! |

| This was a gift from Santa. This lightsaber is beyond amazing. From the illumination it provides in a room at 5:30a to the sounds it makes when swished five feet in front of you. It has provided hours of imagination, which has encouraged stories in Writer's workshop in our son's classroom. If you are a collector, of any age, this is a MUST. I, myself, enjoy the heaviness of the handle and the precision look. Sturdy beyond belief. |
well worth the money

| I bought this for my 5 year old grandson. He loves star wars because his daddy grew up playing all the time. Very durable. It is alittle pricey but he plays with it almost every day. Just loves being a Jedi. I would reccomend to any star wars fan. |
