1 Stars Worst of the lightsaber toys around. Do Not Buy This!
This is the worst piece of junk toy I have ever purchased for my boys. I was deceived like the other buyer, thinking it was a different product than the Rubies Costume Darth Maul Lightsaber. But, it is exactly the same. The light never worked! The lightsaber pieces fell apart in the first 30 minutes. In our haste and laziness we threw the packaging away. However I am so upset about this product that I plan to write/call the manufacturer to complain. It continually fell apart. We attend about 3 functions with our costumes including trick or treating and my son could not use this toy/prop at all. I kept carrying the parts and pieces around as they fell apart at his school party. It was a mess.
I have 2 -7 year old boys so I’ve bought a lot of toys over the years and this is about as mad as I’ve been.
Please, to all parents just please beware. To collectors, never take this prop out of it’s box. NEVER. Thank you.
1 Stars Broken within 2 hours
What can I say. My son was darth maul for Halloween and was so excited to find this light saber. Just waving it around broke it. The pieces flew off in every direction. I know it wasn’t a toy but the kid didn’t even hit anything with it or duel or anything. Very cheaply made.
1 Stars Broke almost immediately– very flimsy
Unfortunately I had the same experience as most people here it seems. The blades are VERY flimsy, and broke almost immediately when my 4 year old started to play with it. The blades will snap off and it is almost impossible to put them back together.
Fortunately, I had a backup plan: I went and bought two of the non-electronic Darth Vader lightsabers (about $8 each and readily available), sanded the bases of them and glued them together with Gorilla super-glue. This works VERY well, and although there are no lights/sounds with these toys, my kids can play with it as rough as they do with the other single-blade lightsabers. My son loves it, and ANYONE can do this. No, it’s not a cosmetically accurate toy, but he can play with it and doesn’t care about accuracy of replica design. And isn’t that the point? Now why Hasbro or somebody hasn’t made a Darth-Maul lightsaber with the stronger blades and no sound/lights is a mystery to me. Hope my “homemade” idea helps some of you.
2 Stars Dual lightsaber
It broke the first day my son had it. We have put it back together but it isn’t very high quality.
2 Stars Item quality does not match the item price.
This item was exactly what my son wanted for Christmas, except for the fact that the toy fell apart the very 1st time he played with it. I was able to repair it using a little ingenuity, but as far as the item’s quality to price ratio it was definatly sub-par.
