The pixel blade effects on this are insane. The ignition looks exactly like the show, and the smooth swing is super responsive when you move it around. My only real gripe was that the box arrived a little banged up from transit, but everything inside was packed securely in foam so no damage done. Definitely recommending this to my local cosplay group.
Super solid structure. Huge in size. Complicated to navigate. Quick and considerate delivery. Website and locating customer service not user friendly. Bought for my 8 year old son- I have no doubt these will last his lifetime, with the exception of battery and child inflicted destruction to the beautifully crafted saber.
Finally pulled the trigger on the Starkiller hilt, and it’s a masterpiece. The exposed crystal chamber detail is much cleaner in person than in the renders. I’ve handled a few mid-tier replicas, but the weight and balance on this one are superior. The Pixel blade ignition is instant, and the smooth swing calibration is spot on with zero delay. Definitely worth the investment for a serious collector.
Thank you for the detailed feedback, Marcus! We take great pride in the crystal chamber's internal detailing, as we know it's the heart of the Starkiller design. It’s awesome to hear the smooth swing and balance met your expectations. Welcome to the elite tier of collectors!
We're huge Star Wars fans, and I've seen the ones in Galaxy's Edge, but there's really no reason to throw that kind of coin away. ☠️😭
The hilt of this lightsaber is about 11 inches long, and the blade is about 36 inches long, so the total length when assembled is about 46 inches. (My 37.5-inch kid is holding it for size reference.)
While users can manually change the "sound effect font" (character/sound effect), background music, blade color, and blade effects... once you get the hang of it, gesture control (see video) is faster and easier than manual control. I especially love that the blade sounds change based on the selected Star Wars character!
Here are the different "sound effect fonts," as far as I can tell:
- Yoda
- (sound effect)
- Luke: Wait, is this training? Yoda: My training isn't always the universe.
- I've been told it's the Darksaber
- Starkiller
- Obi-Wan Kenobi
- The Butcher (??)
- Leia
- Darth Vader: Prepare to Embark
- Anakin
- Obi...Kenobi!!!
- Count Dooku
- Sith Red
- (Palpatine laughs)
The different colors are bright and vibrant, the sound effects/background music are great, the lightsaber has a good length-to-weight ratio, and it feels high-quality. You really get what you pay for!
At the time of review, this item (RGB style) was listed for $159.99, which is a fantastic deal considering it costs over $220 in Galaxy's Edge! Highly recommended!
I love this saber, the color change, the effects are great.
Thank you so much for the 5-star love! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
May the Force fuel your adventures!
