Star Wars FX Lightsabers - The Ultimate Star Wars Gift

By R.M.Doyle

There are many companies who now offer you the chance of being like your favorite character from the Star Wars movies. However, the only one that is an official reproduction of them is the Star Wars FX Lightsabers. Certainly for those who live and breathe the Star Wars movies then this is the ultimate item to have in their collection of Star Wars memorabilia.

These Star Wars FX Lightsabers are not cheap compared to some of the toy versions available, but they do have plenty of great features on them. The features that these particular Lightsabers have are as follows:-

1. Each Lightsabers blade glows in the same way as the original models do in the movies. However, another great feature of the blade is that they power up and power down just as they would if they were used in the Star Wars movies.

2. The sound effects that you hear from these Star Wars FX Lightsabers are very real because they are the same sounds that you hear in the movies and have been digitally recorded and stored in to them.

3. All of the different models of these Lightsabers come with four motion sensors that control not just the sound effects, but the power up and power down feature, the idle hum and the clash features as well.

4. Each of the Lightsabers hilts is made from durable metal and along with looking just like those in the movies when you handle them it feels like it as well.

5. They all come with their own display stands where they can be placed once you have finished competing with each other.

There is only one really decision you need to make now is which of the three different models of the Star Wars FX Lightsabers you want to own. You have the option of either going for the Darth Vader version which comes with a red blade, the Luke Skywalker version that has a blue blade or the Yoda version that has a green blade.

But in order to run each one of these you do require batteries for them. For the Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker Star Wars FX Lightsabers you will need 3 x AA batteries to power all its features. As for the Yoda model this one because it is smaller being only 33 inches in length needs 3 x AAA batteries.
