  • A Lightsaber Truly Fit for a Dark Lord of the Sith
This thing is legit, the real deal. After 15 years of waiting for an FX version of the lightsaber of Darth Sidious/Emperor Palpatine, they definitely did not disappoint here, as they have definitely delivered a product that both looks and feels worth the money. 1) Construct: the hilt is solid metal, very heavy compared to others I have in my collection. I honestly have to say this one feels like the best quality of any I have thus far acquired. The weight alone is a testament to the quality of the materials. There are two emitter heads that can screw on and off at will, one being for displaying the hilt alone and the other for when the blade is attached. It is easy to switch them out, so you can display the lightsaber with or without the blade as you please and switch back and forth if you so choose. 2) Lighting and Sound Effects: if you have visited Galaxy's Edge, you will be familiar with how the blade attaches and detaches. The blade and the sound box within the hilt both are fantastic, emitting great quality light from the blade and great quality sound effects from the hilt. 3) Display Stand: LOVE this. The stand is a great way to display the lightsaber whether that be with the blade or without (easier to do so without obviously, but I digress). The stand has the look and feel of the Imperial era wall designs seen on board both the first and second Death Stars, and it is a great look for this particular lightsaber given this weapon belongs to the Emperor himself. OVERALL SCORE: 10/10, A+++. Here's hoping they continue on with this sort of quality with all lightsabers as we go into the future. ... show more

  • My boys I love it
The media could not be loaded. I have collected every saber released in the black series, this is easily my favorite to date. The hilt is heavy and it balances the saber perfectly, not that it’s meant for heavy dueling, but it definitely helps me defend myself from two saber wielding younglings. What I love about the new elites are the features. The blades are removable, I can actually display them on a stand without a huge blade stick up. The flow of the LED’s are amazing and smooth, and they don’t just dim on clash but change color. The buttons on the hilt do different things, tapping one will turn it on and off, while tapping the other causes you to deflect laser bolts and holding it throws lighting. It is pricey, no doubt, the blade does twist and lock in but I added a rubber O-ring to the hilt lock nut and it stiffened the blade just enough so that it doesn’t rattle but does forgive when my sons whack me, that’s my only gripe. ... show more

  • Very Good Quality
I'm impressed with this lightsaber. The new FX Elite blade lights up very smoothly - much better than any previous FX lightsaber or Galaxy's Edge Legacy Lightsaber. The hilt is solid. I don't care if it isn't to scale vice what was in the movie. It does come with a separate cap for cosplay that makes it more like Palpatine's in the movie but obviously you cannot use the blade with it. It comes with a decent-looking stand and the speakers are okay. Nobody since the older FX lightsabers (pre Black Series) has made a saber with a decent speaker or motion sensitivity. I've bought a lot of lightsabers from Hasbro and Galaxy's Edge and I have to say Hasbro has stepped up their game with the Force FX Elite lightsabers judging from this one alone. Hopefully the Mandalorian dark saber I preordered will be just as nice. ... show more

  • Excellent Product
This is a black series lightsaber but has the feel of the signature series. The weight of the saber is heavier than others and the finish is excellent. This saber has a lot of genuine metal in it (not a lot of plastic). It comes with two attachments. One attachment holds the blade but can be easily removed and a second attachment can be put on when you just want the base of the saber for display. The battery compartment is a little different than other signature or black series sabers. You have to remove a screw with an Alan wrench (wrench supplied) to get the battery compartment open. The saber uses three AA batteries (not AAA’s like others). The sound volume is a little quieter than other signature or black series sabers but still enjoyable! Overall I’m very pleased with this product and would rank it well or higher among the other black or signature series sabers. ... show more

  • A Supreme Chancellor's deepest darkest secret!
Finally, at last have I long awaited for this saber replica. IRONIC, Now I am THE SENATE with this diabolical Sith lightsaber!!! Unique features only to FX Elite models such as blaster bolt deflection, wall cutting effect, flash on clash, and my favorite: Force Lightning (ZAP!) are true. It is indeed hefty, thick and durable, but well-balanced. The buttons are easily activated when pressed (both intentially and accidentally). The only annoying thing is the hex key it comes with for changing batteries near the pommel; the hex is so small it slips through fingers when using. Otherwise, this saber replica is ideal for display/cosplay (due to removable blade) and light sparring but not for heavy swordplay. (Leave that to the custom FX sabers with mid/heavy grade polycarbonate tubes.) Well worth the money!!! A+++ P.s. and if you don't agree with me, IT'S TREASON THEN (*ignites lightsaber*) ... show more

  • Unlimited Power!!!!!!!
This is probably the most fun of all of these because it allows you to do other things with it. Being able to do the blaster strikes and the electricity makes this a lot of fun and it’s beautiful to look at too. I noticed some reviewers thought the volume was low but I haven’t had that issue with mine. It also has a jabbing function that produces different lights and sounds if you make a stabbing motion with it. ... show more
