This is an exact replica of the iconic lightsaber from the epic Star Wars series, faithful to every outward detail of the original. The lightsaber reproduces the authentic sounds from the movies, including the classic hum when idle, swooshing sound when swung, and clashing sound when it strikes another object or lightsaber. The sturdy blade is composed of shatterproof polycarbonate enclosed around a string of bright LEDs that illuminate in sequence from hilt to tip when turned on, providing the illusion of a focused beam of energy emanating from the hilt. As it powers up, the lightsaber replicates the actual initialization sound used in the films, and built-in motion detectors detect blade movement and prompt the same battle sounds that are the hallmarks of the movies. The blade detaches from the hilt. The hilt is made of durable die-cast aluminum and polyethylene and crafted to replicate all characteristics of the unique lightsabers used by different Star Wars characters. Requires three AA batteries. Ages 14 and up. Anakin Skywalker. Blue blade; from Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. 44" L. (1 3/4 lbs.)
