The Star Wars Darth Vader Lightsaber.

This is the replica of the famous Jedi and Sith weapon from the epic Star Wars series, commemorating the 30th anniversary of the original film's release. Its sturdy glowing blade is composed of a string of bright LEDs encased in a shatterproof polycarbonate sheath, and when turned on it reproduces the actual initialization sound used in the films. As it powers up, the LEDs illuminate in sequence, providing the illusion of a focused beam of energy emanating from the hilt. Built-in motion sensors detect blade movement and generate authentic sounds; it emits its classic hum when idle, makes a swooshing sound when swung, and produces the same clashing sound heard during the films' battles when it taps another object or lightsaber. The hilt is crafted from durable aluminum and polyethylene, and faithfully reproduces every detail from the original movies. Ages 12 and up. Darth Vader Model. Red bladed version from Star Wars Episode IV-A New Hope. Requires three AA batteries. 44" L x 2" Diam. (1 lb.)
