New Hasbro Toy Lightsabers

[H0llyw00d]

I need a Luke ANH lightsaber. I sooo very much hope the blades are removable. If they are, God help me, I'll be all over it like stink on a monkey!

That's what brought me to the forum. Bought a removable blade Luke ANH last April off Amazon for $150 to get for Christmas. When Christmas came looked for an additional blade so I could whack my son with it and not only no blades but the only sabers were $500!! WTF!!!

As I type the kids have the 2 Luxeon-converted MR Luke ANHs I've gotten since outside beating the crap out of each other and making the next generation of Star Wars fans... Good times.

Not Hasbro but I thought there might be some interest in the Rubies Kylo Ren lightsaber

Looks like the blades are static but that is probably for the best for the sake of the hilt design.

This isn't lightsabers, but it is Hasbro... Decided to go to the local ghetto Target this morning, and look what they were unboxing>>>

Couldn't stay for it to go on shelves, but I'll be heading back after work... This target had toys everywhere, it's obvious the employees don't care, looks like a chance to score

Where are you located Gnar Gnar?

It's going to be REALLY hard avoiding information with all these toys sitting out! As long as you don't read any of the cardbacks or box info, right?

Do they really put spoiler info like that? I always thought it was generic statements like "Kylo Ren's lightsaber to battle the Jedi's" or things like that.

Here you go:

I can just see those stands bending the blades..

 

[TrypWyr]

Are polyc blades really that susceptible to bending, though?

 

[Kylash]

When a heavy metal hilt is hanging on the opposite end from one tension point on the stand, I would think so.

 

[H0llyw00d]

Removable blades? What is the new "tech" they claimed?

 

[Guff]

Do we think the appearance of these make Kylo's release on Force Friday less likely?

Edit:

Accidentally replied to old info, so I'm just going to say I've been itching for a light up saber lately and these look nice!

Far from you, sorry dude

I've read them, they did a great job being generic with the descriptions... Trust in Kennedy and Abrams!

The older MR Force FX blades were known to bend over time just by hanging them horizontally.
So, I would say that the only safe way have them displayed for a longer time is upright.

second that, "removable blades?!?!??!"

 

[Mara Jade's Father]

Hmmm.... I don't see any emitter plugs so I'm going to guess "no" on the removable blades.

Rebelscum has picts of the Kylo Ren non-electronic lightsaber.

Looks more accurate than the ones floating all over etsy and ebay.
