Star Wars FX Lightsaber Toys

What to expect and what to choose if you are buying a lightsaber for your kid
When choosing a Star Wars lightsaber toy for your child who wants to take part in ultimate lightsaber duels with his / her friends, you probably don't want to spend $100 - $200 for a proper high-detailed replica. Instead you should look for the electronic lightsaber toys usually available from $30 to $70 in many online stores.
Hasbro, as the biggest licensed manufacturer of Star Wars toys, has many different versions of electronic lightsabers. They typically allow you to "ignite" the weapon by pressing a button, and then flick your wrist to extend the blade to its full length (usually over 3 feet). Other features you can expect in this category include:

• Realistic electronic movie sound effects like battle-clash and "humming" sounds


• Light-up telescopic blade


• Vibrating effect after ignition


• Some models include spring-operated, pop-out blade


• 3 - 6 AAA batteries to power the sound and light effects

The available models include the whole range of lightsabers used by your kid's favorite heroes. You can choose among Yoda fx lightsaber, Luke Skywalker lightsaber, the double lightsaber used by Darth Maul, very popular Darth Vader fx lightsaber, the weapon used by Anakin Skywalker, Obi Van Kenobi, Mace Windu, Count Dooku and other characters.
