Re: Star Wars Episode VII Discussion (Spoilers Within)

Lol die cast make not a fun Lightsaber hmmm?

Sounds like you want a better quality Saber. Maybe these aren't for you. No metal.

Here it is. The blade is red and textured with a flame pattern.

Re: Star Wars Episode VII Discussion (Spoilers Within)

I also keep reading that the motion sensor in the Disney store one has a malfunctioning motion sensor.

I do like them all and I think each has it's flaws and each has it's strengths. I have never been so torn on choosing what to buy.

Man Light saber collecting is harder than TF collecting.

Re: Star Wars Episode VII Discussion (Spoilers Within)

Saw it 3 times

Won't give anything away, will wait for a few weeks to discuss.




Enjoyed it the most the first and third time I saw it.

Movie was fast passed, dare I say maybe a little too fast. quickest 2+ hrs in a theatre.

Lots going on in the movie.

Wow Daisy's character was bad ass!! and Kylo lots going on there.

Glad to see they drew some ideas,( mirrored them almost ) some of the better ones IMO from the old Canon.


Great enjoyable movie, will need to watch it a few hundred more times to see how it holds up to the other 6

Some parts you could nit pick if you wanted, but I try not to as that is one good way to dull the enjoyment.

Go see it !!


Will give away a very tiny spoiler, glad Han grabbed the Blue winter jacket this time

Re: Star Wars Episode VII Discussion (Spoilers Within)

The way I approached it was to start with the least expensive and work my way up. I was satisfied with the UFX/Disney sabers but my use may be different than yours. Maybe you are dueling in front of a mirror with yourself in Kylo Ren cosplay

I constantly play with the kids and nephews. They abuse them pretty bad. Plus we're talking about a $150 price difference. That's a lot of dough when you have 6 sabers and growing.

+1

My MR Force FXs are no-touchy when it comes to my kids whereas the Hasbro UFXs make for fun pre-bedtime dueling with them in the dark (have them all except for the UFX Yoda).

Again I'd only get the Black Series for display and for lighting up and swinging around, tapping against the couch to make it clash, then back onto the display stand. I really wish I had been more patient and found an ESB Graflex MR saber with detachable blade. The heavy metal hilt of the MRs is awesome but when I tried wearing my friend's detachable-blade Kit Fisto sword my fixed blade versions paled in comparison. Nothing like having a laser sword handle clipped to your belt!

I'd go for the Disney. The vibrating hilt is a bonus and the sound is closer to what was heard onscreen.

Re: Star Wars Episode VII Discussion (Spoilers Within)

way to make me jealous

Your pics have swayed me to get the Disney Store stuff over the others and thanks for telling me where to get them. Your pics also look way better then the stock photos maybe because they are real and not staged.

Back to the Movie I cannot wait to see this I have not seen it yet super hyped and I am almost ready to order my second set of seats lol
