Star Wars FX Lightsabers - The Ultimate Star Wars Gift

By R.M.Doyle

Today you have the chance now of being able to act just like a number of the more well known characters from the Star Wars movies. This is because today you are able to purchase an official replica of the Lightsabers that these characters would use. For anyone who is a serious fan of the Star Wars movies owning one of the Star Wars FX Lightsabers is something that they would be proud of.

However, there are plenty of toy Lightsabers on the market today that are suitable for children, however the Star Wars FX Lightsabers are meant for older children and adults and this is why the cost a lot more. But they do come with a number of wonderful features and we look at them below.

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. Each one of the different models of Star Wars FX Lightsabers have four motion sensors which help to control the sound effects, the power up , the power down, the idle hum and clash.

4. The hilt of every one of the Lightsabers is made from metal that is durable and as well as looking just like those in the movie it feels like them as well.

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

The biggest decision you will have to make when you are thinking of purchasing one of these Lightsabers which of the models it is you want. For some they may prefer to go for the Darth Vader version that has a red blade, but for others they may prefer to be Luke Skywalker whose model has a blue blade or for others they may want to hold Yoda's green blade model.

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.
