The Star Wars Lightsaber Darth Maul Double-Bladed Model

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 hil t is crafted from durable aluminum and polyethylene, and faithfully reproduces every detail from the original movies. Ages 12 and up. Over 7' long with two red blades and a central handle large enough for two hands, this model from Episode I: The Phantom Menace® breaks down into two separate lightsabers. The manufacturer has confirmed that this item meets U.S. Federal toy safety standards for lead. Requires six AAA batteries. 86" L x 2" Diam. (3 lb.)
