Light Sabre Dilema

[rev-erend]

So here I am - looking forward to the last in series
Star Wars film when thru the door drops some Star Wars goodies brochures.

So should be get the : Luke or Annakin or Darth version of the venerable light sable.

They are 90 quid - come with a stand and make the compulsory noises - so for once I won't have to do this..

Which one would you get

Lad in the office has got one.

Bit of a waste of money really...

It depends whether you are in touch with the light or dark side of The Force - obviously.

With my name David Wrede (pronounced Vraydeh) and the fact that I used to own a Black Tuscan, you can guess which I would choose!

These aren't the light sabres you're looking for

Get the Luke one!

Hayden Christiansen (sp?) was the only actor who couldn't choose the colour of his light sabre, as it had already been in episode IV.

Which was years later, he probably rebuilt it or made a new one after the batteries wore out on the old one.

I thank you

I got one for my birthday - they are ace. It lights up 'properly' and looks like its extending - makes the right noises and sounds when you wave it around and smash it into stuff (stuff=people ).

Where's it from?

[ralphie71]

Now me I'd have the Samuel L Jackson Purple type one which should also come with the voice over (in Pulp Fiction mode) "Pass me my Fooking Lightsabre - It's the one with Bad MuthaFooker written on it, you dig"

P

[Raify]

there was a rather amusing 'abridged script' in Total Film a while after the attack of the clones.

Samuel L Jackson walks up to Christopher Lee and holds his light sabre to his neck

"That's right, it's purple motherer!"

A friend of mine had read this, then saw the film and was convinced that they'd edited it out!

[cotty]
