 Best Value, Durable, Better than Electronic Models May 31, 2005
By christinemm - The Thinking Mother
We are very happy with the non-battery operated line of Hasbro lightsabres and we own four different models. We had first purchased the battery operated light sabers and were not happy with them. If you are interested in my review of those different, more expensive toys, see those items to find my review.
The red lightsabres are used by characters on the Dark Side. The Jedi/good side characters use blades which are blue, green or purple.
These less expensive and more durable light sabers are my children's favorites and preferred by my husband and I for these reasons:
a. They are more lightweight than the electronic models and therefore are easier to carry and easier to grip/hold with one hand.
b. The blades fully retract into the handle (just like they do in the movies---the electronic models don't do this) and they LOCK in the closed position so they don't fall open while carrying or wearing them.
c. The lock is easy to operate; you hold it down and flick the blade to extend the "laser blade".
d. When flicking it open, it takes just one quick flick to extend the blade completely open, and even children aged 4 can do this with one flick after a few practices.
e. It closes very easily. My children prefer to push it (gently) into the ground or into the floor to close it.
f. The built in clip works well to clip the closed unit onto the waistband of the pants, a pants pocket or a belt. Due to good design of the locking mechanism, the unit stays closed/retracted while worn in this manner.
g. The lack of electronic components and light bulbs allows for rougher play and not worrying about breakage while using it in lightsabre to lightsabre clashing together play.'
h. You won't have to replace light bulbs that can break in rough play (as the other models have).
i. There are no sensitive electronic components to break if it accidentally gets wet or left outside and is rained on.
j. At this low price we can afford to buy a couple of extras for visiting children to play with.
k. All of the blade lengths are of equal length allowing for safer play (unlike the electronic models).
Love this toy, but rated educational value as 1 as truly there is not much educational about this toy. I have no problem with this being non-educational, though, as my children have other venues to expand their education! Imaginative play is very important for children as is "unstructured free play time" and this falls into that category.

this thing is flippin' awesome May 18, 2005
Guys, for star wars freaks like me and you like playing with your friends and neighbors then you should certainly get this amazing toy. It might not have gaudy lights and sounds but this toy is really unique: the blade acually goes in all the way. That is also very usefull for storge space and if you are planning on doing much more than "sword fighting".

Best lightsaber ever! Apr 11, 2005
Wow! I thought my electronic sabers were cool! I bought my sister and I one (mine red, hers blue) and we just exploded over these!
They're very durable, rectract fully, easy to open and withdraw, and can clip on your belt! We dueled and dueled, until we were too exhausted from the fun!
I have this big black cape with a hood so I can dress up like the Sith Lord to add even more fun.
My sister and I played Star Wars for 3 hrs! My sister thought it was 20 minutes because we had so much fun!
The electronic ones are pretty durable and great for Halloween, but not very durable for extreme fighting, and continuous at that. My saber (or my sister's) haven't gotten a single scratch since I bought these bad boys. My electronic lightsabers have plenty of scratches and marks, and one has a dent at the top.
Overall, these things are inexpensive, and ultimate play fighters! May the force be with you.
(It's snowing, and it's giving me ideas...)

Basic Is BETTER! Apr 16, 2005
By Darth Rondard
As I have stated previously, I believe all the basic lightsabers are superior to the flashy and fragile light up siblings.
These things can take a beating and are perfect for role playing since they lock, release with a button, clip on to anything, like a pocket, pants seam, or a belt, and they look VERY realalistic.
I am VERY impressed with the Anakin Skywalker style basic lightsabers. They are almost a replica. And they pack the original trilogy's design. :: Drools ::
This item is one of the best things you can give a Star Wars junkie, besides a trip to Star Wars rehab.
The only minor complaint I have is the grip, it is a little large. But if you can tolerate that, this is THE product for you.
Two thumbs up here. |,,,, |,,,,
