Apparel reviews of Star Wars Jedi Council Force Action Lightsaber

Customer Review: Great Fun
Rating: 5 Stars

This was a gift for my son and he loved it. He's 6 at the time so abuses of toys are natural. However, it took him 2 yrs to break the weakest part of the lightsaber (the very end of the blade). For my money, that's real good value. Obviously if you are using it to try for real jedi fights and you are really smacking it hard, maybe your opinion of the durability will be less. However, I thought it was a great toy, great sound, and great fun.

One funny story I have to share as far as the power of product marketing goes is this. My son was CONVINCED that when it said "Force Action" on the box, that meant NOT that it made noise and stuff when you hit/swung it, but that if he placed it on the ground, strained and pointed your hand at it, the light saber would leap into his hand. My wife & I absolutely roared when he did it the first time. It took some bit of explaining that no matter what the box said, Force powers were movie magic. Priceless moment though.

Description of Star Wars Jedi Council Force Action Lightsaber

Use the force with the incredible Force Action Lightsaber! Just like in the Star Wars movies, this toy weapon springs into action, lights up, and makes realistic lightsaber sounds. The weapon of choice for a Jedi, this toy is recommended for children ages six and up.

It lights up and makes realistic lightsaber sounds, just like in the Star Wars movies. View larger.

The weapon swiftly extends to more than three feet long. View larger.

Just Like the Movies
When the two forces of good and evil meet in battle, the clash of their blades echoes throughout the galaxy. This Jedi Council lightsaber's design is the same as the weapons wielded by the heroic Jedi and the sinister Sith.

This weapon swiftly extends to more than three feet long with the sliding of a button. The spring-activated blade is made with translucent green plastic. Built-in segments fully retract into the handle, and the blade is illuminated with bands of light.

While it's intended for use against another lightsaber--and not a person or animal--the blade is built from a safer, softer plastic than the durable, hard plastic handle, just in case. The silver handle features dynamic-looking accents.

Realistic Sounds
For more than 30 years, Stars Wars fans the world over have been inspired to make their own lightsaber sound effects, but now, the Force Action Lightsaber does it for you. The toy creates the distinctive power-activated "humming" drone that creates anticipation in moments between swings.

This lightsaber also replicates the burst of electricity as the saber turns on and the blade extends as well as the "wave" of the blade as it hovers through the air.

Using the Force
Unlike the lightsabers of the Star Wars movie, the toy doesn't retract with the push of a button. After turning the weapon off, the blade can be collapsed by hand--but be careful not to jam the blade too tightly into the handle.

A couple of times while playing with the lightsaber, the blade did not extend when the power was activated; the sound effects started up, but the "on" button had to be pressed more than once to get the blade out.

The on/off button looks as if it should also control the volume of the lightsaber--but it does not. Parents who get sick of the "humming" can remove the batteries, as the lightsaber requires three AA batteries (not included) for its lights and sounds.

But the Jedi Council Lightsaber wouldn't be half the fun without its glowing arc-wave energy blade, and the red light is especially mesmerizing in the dark. While it's always exciting to fight against villains, the lightsaber is a great toy for Jedis learning to wield the Force on their own.
