Star Wars Jedi Council Force Action Lightsaber Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've always been into lightsabers, but also always had the crappy ones where the light stops working after a year, and is usually muti-colored. Then $100 lightsabers that were really nice appeared, but I couldn't afford them. Then these $20 Hasbro ones were created and, once I found out, I immediately bought the Anakin changing blade. Then, a few years later, I wanted another, so I bought this one. Both of these lightsabers are great, this one even more so with the fact that it hums and is spring-activated. The only thing I didn't like about them is that you can't hook them to your belt, so I quickly made a system to allow it. There are two plastic piecesnear the top (where the blade comes out). If you're careful (and over the age of 15), you can drill a small hole through these plastic pieces and thread a key ring through the holes. Then attach a clip to this ring. Now, go get a belt hook and another key ring and attach those two together. Now, clip the clip to the ring attached to the belt hook and voila, you can attach it to your belt and it's easy to remove and attach via the clip. I've done this to both lightsabers and it works very well.

Use the force with the incredible Force Action Lightsaber! Just like in the Star Wars movies, this toy weapon springs into action, lights up, and makes realistic lightsaber sounds. The weapon of choice for a Jedi, this toy is recommended for children ages six and up.Just Like the Movies When the two forces of good and evil meet in battle, the clash of their blades echoes throughout the galaxy. This Jedi Council lightsaber's design is the same as the weapons wielded by the heroic Jedi and the sinister Sith.This weapon swiftly extends to more than three feet long with the sliding of a button. The spring-activated blade is made with translucent green plastic. Built-in segments fully retract into the handle, and the blade is illuminated with bands of light.While it's intended for use against another lightsaber--and not a person or animal--the blade is built from a safer, softer plastic than the durable, hard plastic handle, just in case. The silver handle features dynamic-looking accents.Realistic Sounds For more than 30 years, Stars Wars fans the world over have been inspired to make their own lightsaber sound effects, but now, the Force Action Lightsaber does it for you. The toy creates the distinctive power-activated "humming" drone that creates anticipation in moments between swings.This lightsaber also replicates the burst of electricity as the saber turns on and the blade extends as well as the "wave" of the blade as it hovers through the air.Using the Force Unlike the lightsabers of the Star Wars movie, the toy doesn't retract with the push of a button. After turning the weapon off, the blade can be collapsed by hand--but be careful not to jam the blade too tightly into the handle.A couple of times while playing with the lightsaber, the blade did not extend when the power was activated; the sound effects started up, but the "on" button had to be pressed more than once to get the blade out.The on/off button looks as if it should also control the volume of the lightsaber--but it does not. Parents who get sick of the "humming" can remove the batteries, as the lightsaber requires three AA batteries (not included) for its lights and sounds.But the Jedi Council Lightsaber wouldn't be half the fun without its glowing arc-wave energy blade, and the red light is especially mesmerizing in the dark. While it's always exciting to fight against villains, the lightsaber is a great toy for Jedis learning to wield the Force on their own.
