Some of this stuff is getting crazy expensive. The Fx saber looks like the right price range, not sure what the other FX sabers cost years ago though. $50 for those Unleashed style figures is nuts!
 
The FX sabers I bought were around $119 when they first came out but after shipping and tax it was about $150. Found the old email LOL.

That was directly from Master replicas. I had bought the Vader saber from sideshow and think it was about the same.
Later on you could get them for about $99 in stores like hastings and gamestop, that was after ROTS came out so you could get the ROTS Anakin and also the ROTJ Luke came out around the time as well. The Luke was a borders exclusive I think but I ended up getting mine at a hastings.
The last one I got was the ROTS Obi Wan that they are re-releasing, I still don't know why they keep pushing that one when they could make the ANH version.
I REALLY wanted the TPM Obi saber but I think it was released at the end of the FX saber lifespan at the time and I never found one.
Its crazy now that you can just walk into a Walmart and pick one up off of the shelf.

I actually found a functional color changing Anakin/Vader ultimate fx saber at a thrift shop for 99 cents. Technically, a little over $2 if you include new batteries. Not really the same thing, but I thought I'd brag a little. Still waiting to find a real fx saber or flash gun, but until then, this will do.
 
I really hope the Obi-Wan isn't the only new (old) addition to the FX series. I'd love to see Windu and Dooku sabers again. I'd also love it if they went back to removable blades.. unfortunately it all seems unlikely.

I wouldn't rule out releasing Windu/Dooku/Maul/Ventress/ Luke and Vader ESB FXs
