The FX series of lightsabers are as close as you can get to the real thing without knowing George Lucas. They are made by the same company that makes the ~$200-400 lightsaber handle replicas that look identical to the movie props. These FX lightsabers are less fancy, and are not limited edition, so they are considerably more affordable. Plus, unlike the handle replicas these lightsabers actually work. These are not toys, the handles include metal parts and they are made to look like the movie props. The handles also include sophisticated electronics that sense movement and play the appropriate sound for that movement. The blade lights up in sequential order just like real lightsaber blades. At night or in the dark it is nearly impossible to tell these are not real lightsabers. Do not confuse these with the cheap plastic toys you find in toy stores, these are complex high-end collectibles. - Official reproduction of Luke Skywalker's lightsaber from Star Wars.
- Enhanced glowing blue blade with realistic power-up and power-down light effects. The power-up and power-down light effects are produced by a string of 64 super-bright LEDs that ignite sequentially inside the blade.

- Blade has 3 built-in motion sensors for super sensitivity: 2 for detecting movement and 1 for detecting the impact of the blade.
