Advantages: Excellent quality toy Disadvantages: You can look foolish waving it about
Well of all the things I expected to get at Christmas this was one item I never expected to get at my age (I am nearly 35). But on Christmas morning I got my pile of pressies (5 in all) and of course I had to open the big one first. Within, for my delectation, was this little baby (actually not that little as it is over a metre in length fully extended) and all my dreams of childhood were unleashed in short order. Ten minutes later (all my other ... ...batteries, it was ready for action. I pushed the activator button and became in an instant a Jedi Knight (and ten years old) as I heard that familiar hum. A few twirls and hits against a chair (imagining of course that it cut the chair in half) later and I am in heaven and seriously irritating my girlfriend (she bought it after all). So I (slightly sheepishly) put it away until her 23 year old brother came down with the one he got given by his parents.

Advantages: Better than using invisible ones Disadvantages: You can look silly (especially adults),
...similar to the £7.99 offical Hasbro version, but like most cheaper clones, it has no colour. I have to say though, I do prefer the handle to the large Hasbro version.
Colours
Ever wondered why lightsabres come in so many different colours (no, it's not because of the mood they are in).
Why lightsabres are blue- Blue lightsabres are blue, because they only have one Jedi crystal inside. Jedi crystals are what a lightsabre's power comes from, besides ... ...green-Green lightsabres have 3 crystals in them, which means the lightsabre beam can be adjusted to thinner, longer, shorter or fatter.
Why lightsabres are red-Now only bad guys/siths are supposed to wield red lightsabres(which you've probably guessed already), as their Jedi crystals are formed with hatred, which is why they are red (I wonder if your really bad, can they go black?)
Why lightsabres are orange/yellow-To be honest I don't really know. ...

Advantages: Finally I am a Jedi Disadvantages: It's not real :(
...Finally those nice people at Hasbro have made children's dreams come true (for around £15 - £20), and parents nightmares all the more real. The 'Sabres' are made out of durable plastic and are extendable going from the simple hilt (roughly 80cm), right out to the full size of roughly 3ft. built inside the plastic is a flashing LED and sound box, so that when switched on the blade makes 'realistic' sights and sounds, the whirring as you swing it through ... ...object (or sibling). Thankfully these toys are highly durable so you don't have to treat them like they're made of glass, and they don't drain the batteries too quick either (2 AA batteries).
For anyone who knows about star wars you'll know that the light sabre is also the weapon of choice of their moral enemies (Sith) and even within the Jedi order there is a certain about of individuality in the weapons (something not lost on the merchandisers). ...
