Holiday Toy List Star Wars Lightsaber

Darth Vader Lightsaber Review

I like this Darth Vader Lightsaber. It helps make a great presentation within the box but only gets much better after it truly is totally free and in use.

The sounds are good - really realistic, like the film. It feels excellent in the hand for older kids - it may possibly be a little larger for little youngsters but I know they'll like it as well. It really is the closest point I've observed to a 'real' Star Wars Lightsaber. When you turn it on, the light zips out for the finish and if you wave it, you receive the 'wooooam woaam' that may be just such as the film. That makes it fun for youngsters that play by themselves as well!


The batteries last a long time. Warning although - It scares the crap out of my canine. I turn it on and he requires off operating to hide. It might also be a firework show.


It is properly created and simple adequate to encourage imaginative play - the sort that in no way gets old. You will find adults and teens out there that may well just come to a decision this is a toy for THEM so the kidlets could wish to continue to keep an eye on theirs! It's genuinely neat inside the dark. In fact, it may possibly be a very good toy for young kids that are getting difficulty with dark rooms so they will really feel safe.

This Star Wars Lightsaber toy has turned out to become more entertaining than I believed it will be. It really is most valuable at evening when the light blade impact is most striking. I'm applying it like a flashlight for short trips towards the carport inside the dark, and it can be way much more entertaining than a standard flashlight for that. (It can be also somewhat dimmer.......)

The sounds are reasonably excellent, despite the fact that the claimed blade motion noise will not be predictable or controllable. The blade get started up and shut down sounds are okay, along with the "contact" noise which you receive whenever you smack the blade into one thing is fair.

The "blade" can be a tube of (I assume) LEDs which light up in sequence when the "on" button is pressed. Pressing that button once more will shut the blade off, and reverses the sequence in the lights, which tends to make the blade appear like it really is collapsing back to the manage. Inside the dark, the impact is very striking. The light tube is encased in another clear plastic tube, I assume for protection. That is superior, as 1 has to smack it fairly difficult into some thing to trigger the "blade contact" effect.

The detailing isn't that fantastic, but then this is not supposed to be a museum high quality replica, it's a toy.

Like I said, it is actually entertaining in the dark, and I'm sure fans in the Darth Vader Lightsaber franchise will appreciate it. By Jon Norris
