    Guess the force wasnt with this lightsaber… At least for the manufacturer. :)

    With price slashes like that!

    Light saber dimensions: This product measures 114.6cm x 10.8cm x 8.3cm (W x H x D)

    179!… Oh wait comes with a display stand, so all good now, definately worth it.

    This is different to the toy plastic handle version. Has a proper metal hilt, and stand made of unobtainium.

  • mudkipz on 13/04/2016 - 09:26

    Is this the one with the non-removeable blade?

    • ryolo on 13/04/2016 - 10:46

      This is the Black Series. They don't make the removable blade version anymore. I believe that's the signature series. I've got Luke's and Vader's ones from that. The Black Series is newer, comes with fixed blades and brighter lights and better sounds.

  • ryang on 13/04/2016 - 09:44

    No love for Kylo or Yoda? :(

    • TRENT86 on 13/04/2016 - 18:04

      Maybe, we will have to wait till 2mrw to see :)

    I paid $240 in the last sale, damn that is a bargain!

    Love the saber, it's sitting on top of my PC, perfect color match =]

    Why is every form of merchandise Darth Vader, lunch boxes, tshirts, etc? Feels like we're prepping a whole generation of Future Sith lords.

      Because he is what Star Wars is all about. Imagine if he didn't exist, there'd be no Luke, no Leia, no one to shoot torpedoes in the Death Star, no Kylo, etc. And he was also the one who brought peace to the universe by throwing the emperor down the shaft. All luke could do was whimper in the corner like a little baby. ;)

        Is that you Kylo Ren?

        • ryolo on 14/04/2016 - 12:12

          Kylo is a whimpy brat with a lightsaber. :D Vader forever!!!

  • grizz_li on 13/04/2016 - 10:48

    That's a good price.
    Paid $240 each for the Darth Maul and Obiwan sabers a couple years ago.
    Is it only available on Thursday and only online?

    • ryang on 13/04/2016 - 11:19

      They're marked as online only and I've never seen any of them in store.

  • CVonC on 13/04/2016 - 11:00

        0.9%?

        • CVonC on 14/04/2016 - 10:10

          oh true didn't see the drop down

          Electrical and Other - 0.90%

          GG.

          CashRewards got rid of their Target cashback too :/

    • espcookie on 14/04/2016 - 09:43

      I did the same - 2nd for half price makes one of them almost as cheap as the plastic kits!

      • CVonC on 14/04/2016 - 10:02

        The kids ones are like $50 each though?

        • espcookie on 14/04/2016 - 10:11

          I was just comparing to the same category on Target having Jedi Master Lightsaber kits for $89 each. The second unit half price of the Force FX is $89.50. I realise it isn't a completely justified comparison, but the fact is you are getting one Force FX for $89.50 in the deal. I realise that you could buy 2 Jedi Master kits and get the same half price on second deal, but they are still a much lower quality product, albeit aimed at kids 'building' a saber.

        • CVonC on 14/04/2016 - 10:15

          @espcookie:

          oh those are a rort for what they are!

          the kids, non-extendable fluro (i think) ones were great for $48 @ Big W. good for fighting too.

        • espcookie on 14/04/2016 - 10:49

          @CVonC: Completely agree on that but if I could find any for $48 I'd be all over them! They were good units but now you're lucky to find any (except eBay at 3 times the price!).

  • grizz_li on 14/04/2016 - 10:08

    BTW I've got these from before and they are not recommended to be playing sword fights, ie. they'll break.

  • wtfnodeal on 14/04/2016 - 11:44

    Seems like a good deal compared with the newsletter(junk email) from EB Games selling each for more than $200.

  • Terra Australis on 14/04/2016 - 21:40

    As someone who loves Star Wars but doens't collect the toys, can someone please explain what features these sabers have that justify the cost? Not being smug, I want to know so I can base my decision on whether to buy or not.

      • Terra Australis on 14/04/2016 - 22:11

        So as I understand it they're collectors items? One review mentioned scalpers, are these limited production?

        • TRENT86 on 14/04/2016 - 22:25

          Don't know m8, you could contact Hasbro who are the Producers of the products.

    • wtfnodeal on 14/04/2016 - 22:04

      Seems a bit underrated to be classified as a toy by the look of it. If you have a chance to check it out at your local EB Games or Games World maybe you can report back the quality if is it worth the cost?

    • grizz_li on 15/04/2016 - 00:33

      They light up exactly like the movie with movie accurate sounds.
      When you swing it, it makes a different sound.
      When you clash with something (not violently), they make another movie effect sound.
      The handle is metal and is close to the movie's saber.
      Overall, if you are a Starwars fan, it'll definitely bring a smile to your face the minute you turn it on.
      I started with Obiwan and told myself I only wanted to get 1.
      Then got Darth Maul because you can buy 2 and join them together.
      Now Yoda and Darth Vader.
      I shouldn't but now want to collect the whole set like a lot of the fanatics online:

  • dinkyfish on 15/04/2016 - 07:26

    these are collectors sabers. the hilts are metal and as accurate as you can get to the props used in the movies. It's really aimed towards Star Wars Fans who want a collectable version of the kids plastic versions.

    For instance, the vader hilt is made of chromed metal, with rubber T rail grips attached and the calculator bubbles on the clamp switch, just like the prop used in 76. It's modelled after the ANH rather than the ESB version too, a detail probably only appreciated by a fan. This is the best price I've seen these at for years.

  • FW190 on 16/04/2016 - 01:35

    looking at the reviews, seems like Yoda's is much brighter then Vader's, although i prefer Vader's………

    decision decisions

    • TRENT86 on 16/04/2016 - 02:01

      get both :)

      • FW190 on 16/04/2016 - 02:47

        lol sounds tempting, but I must resist the dark side :)

        Luke's blue saber seems to be the best one, but it is not available anywhere…………..

  • Stanvx on 19/04/2016 - 19:22

    Any recommendations on removing the stickers from the Lightsaber, I can't remove the sticker residue.

    • grizz_li on 20/04/2016 - 08:50

      Try 10% IPA with water solution.

    • wtfnodeal on 20/04/2016 - 10:00

      You have yours delivered? How is the quality? I think it is sold out now. Only the one $399 left.

      • grizz_li on 21/04/2016 - 23:18

        TBH, the quality is fair for the current price paid.
        Comparing this Hasbro version to my earlier Master Replica ones, these are quite cheap feeling in comparison, eg. more plastic, cheaper feeling switches.
        Even the stand you get with this one is cheaper.
        Darth Vader's red light is not as bright as Yoda's green.

        • wtfnodeal on 22/04/2016 - 00:33

          Got mine today too. Yeah the quality sits in between collectible and toy. Not too great or bad but honestly probably worth not more than $80.
