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.  | What We Think Fun Factor: 
Durability:  (what this means)
The Good: Fun game for the whole family
The Bad: Buzzers take awhile to get used to
In a Nutshell: Interactive, stimulating game | At a Glance Ages: 6 and older Requires: 3 AA batteries |  | | 
Accessories let you customize the lightsaber's hilt. View larger. | 
Colored plastic "crystals" control the blade color. View Larger. | May the Force Be With You 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 One of this light saber's top features is the way it emits different sounds along with a different color light inside the clear plastic blade depending on what Ilum crystal or crystals are inserted in the handle. Choose the classic Jedi green, blue, Sith red, or combine crystals to achieve an effect like the violet light saber Mace Windu uses. Star Wars fans will immediately recognize the powerful humming noise that indicates a light saber ready for combat. And the variety of clashing sounds that the unit makes when the blade comes in contact with any sturdy obstruction is sure to thrill. 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. What's in the Box Hilt, blade, 3 colored crystals, 4 hilt sleeves, tonfa handle, 4 end caps, 3 sleeve rings, blade-emitter guard, and an instruction booklet.
Product Description Build your own custom, life-size lightsaber! Hundreds of possible combinations. Choose and follow your destiny! What will yours look like? Now you can assemble your own custom, life-size lightsaber with this build-your-own lightsaber kit!

highlight of the birthday party November 16, 2008 Our 5 year old grandson absolutely loved this gift. We grandparents were the favorites at his recent birthday party.....this gift was the one all the other children were attracted to first! It was a bit too advanced for him to completely assemble by himself at first, but with the help from a boy slightly older, he was a happy camper for days afterwards!

I bought three of these light sabers for my grandsons. Each and every one of them loved it. My grandson Zach, who has two sisters, asked if I could buy the saber for his dad so that they could play together.
Awesome toy - and so neat with all its different colors.

Saber Fun! September 17, 2008 4 out of 7 found this review helpful
So we all wanted to be Luke Skywalker at one point or another of our lives. Well this toy brings kids one step closer to that dream. Ok, so it's not educational, but it lights up and changes colors and even makes real noises like the actual light saber. Be warned, it can and will be used as a fighting object with but if they both have a saber then I say let kids be kids and have fun! I bought this for my nephew's 5th birthday and he loves it. He had an older saber, which didn't have all the cool bells and whistles that this new and improved model has. He and my daughter spend hours playing with them and run around the house chasing eachother. We've establised "safety rules" when playing but over all I think it's a great toy and lots of fun!

Having read the four earlier excellent reviews, I have two additional comments to add.
#1 - I would like Hasbro to sell a connector piece to allow two lightsaber hilts to be connected together to make a double-bladed lightsaber like the one wielded by Darth Maul. The first lightsaber kit had the ability to make a double-bladed lightsaber, but it was with one hilt, thus making it a rather small area to hold onto. This concept seems like it would be a no-brainer to the people at Hasbro as it would encourage people to buy two kits, rather than just the one.
#2 - I would appreciate if Hasbro would take the time to align the threads of the screw on pieces better so that they sit at better and straighter angles and are not lop-sided and misaligned. When you try to attach a front piece like Count Dooku's sleeve ring with Count Dooku's end cap, they are badly misaligned to each other.
Also, in regard to D Strick's comment, "Like I said, you'd have to be counting all the sounds, lights, putting things on backwards and upside down and all kinds of crazy stuff to get up to 1000 combo's." Well, naturally they are counting each and every nuance of all the variations. It is all in the wording. It doesn't say "Over 1,000 completely different and wholly unique variations of lightsabers possible." They aren't going to lie, just maybe use their verbiage to their benefit.
I want to say that I greatly appreciate the quality reviews so far written. It is nice to see that people other than trolls can still write reviews. :-)
