| Editorial Reviews: Amazon.com Review Whether he's an aspiring Jedi or an apprentice to the dark side, your child will love the possibilities of this Star Wars Clone Wars Ultimate Light Saber Assortment. Movie fans six and up will delight in customizing the hilt, blade color, and end cap to approximate Yoda, Mace Windu, or Maris Brood, while lights and sounds add an authentic element to any battle. Small parts keep this light saber from being appropriate for children under three.
Whether your child is a fan of the new Clone Wars animated film or the original trilogy, this light saber, with its light up blade and electronic sounds, is sure to be a hit. Its sturdy plastic components in gray, black, and gold, three colored crystals, and telescoping blade can be combined in over 1000 different ways to create a customized battle weapon. And since part of the fun is in thinking up ways to combine the pieces into a customized weapon, there's no time-consuming adult setup. You'll need a Philips head screwdriver to insert three AA batteries (not included), and you may want to help young users put the color crystals in the first time around, so they know how to change them later on. Imaginative Play that Spans Distant Galaxies While too much rough play can take a toll on any toy, the construction behind this light saber seems sturdy and well thought out. Adults and kids with larger hands may find the hilt sits more comfortably in their grasp without the custom handles over it. Overall, we had loads of fun creating a custom look, practicing crafty moves, and fighting off imaginary enemies with this light saber. Since the colored blade effect is achieved by projecting light into the clear plastic blade, playing with this light saber in a dark or dimly lit room provides extra drama and an increased dose of fun. Because this toy calls forth an epic battle between good and evil, we imagine that having a playmate with a second light saber would increase the fun exponentially.

This was the at the top of his Christmas list. He loves it and carries it everywhere. It lights up and makes slashing noises. He is able to build different style light sabers easily, he has no problem changing the pieces around by himself. Overall although there is little educational value it is a fun toy that my son has spent hours playing pretend Jedi and Sith with. It seems to be very durable as well. It is his favorite toy. I would highly recomend it for your little Star Wars fans! Pretty cool toy January 5, 2009L. Timoney (Staten Island, NY United States) We bought this for my son for Christmas. He played with it right away. He is 8 years old and really into Star Wars Clone Wars. It was a bit difficult to figure out and we tried to keep the box for storage, but it got beaten up quickly. He still plays with it. I would say a storage bag would be a great addition for the toy. Also a bit difficult to figure out how to put together. Other than that, would buy it again. Creat Your Own Lightsaber! January 2, 2009Donis Dzialo (St. Paul, MN) I bought this for both my 5-year old nephew and my 6-year old son and they both are enjoying it very much. My son says it's "awesome!" We have only put it together once so far and it appears as though it may be too troublesome to take it apart and make it a new way so we are leaving it the way it was first put together. The kids like the way it makes sounds and lights up in different colors. It was easy to assemble but we did forget that it needed batteries. A great toy for any Star Wars lover! My 7 Year old LOVED it!! December 31, 2008Marley (St. Petersburg, Florida United States) I was reluctant to buy this even though my 7 year old has been asking for at least a year. We have probably 5 other light sabers and I didn't think this would really entertain him for long. Boy was I wrong! This was the first thing he opened and couldn't wait to put one together. He didn't even care there weren't batteries. He especially loved being able to change the color of the light saber. There is only 1 light saber to put together but the options are endless. A must for your Star Wars fan! Star Wars Ultimate Light Saber - GREAT TOY! December 27, 2008M. Cranford (Kerrville, TX USA) I bought two of these light sabers for my 6 & 7 yr. old grandsons for Christmas and they absolutely love them. The older boys, aged 12 & 14 liked them just as much and now they want one also. They have been playing with them almost constantly, changing the configurations and having light saber duels almost since they got them. They did need help assembling them at first. So, an adult or older boy helped assemble them for the younger boys at first, but once they saw how and got the hang of it, they can now do most of it themselves. All the kids, and some of the dads, have enjoyed playing with them. One light saber is fun, but it's even more fun when there are two or more so they can have dueling battles. It's fun and a very versatile, well made and durable toy. So, I would definitely recommend this toy for boys young and old alike. | |||||||||||
