The distinctive collectors item, which is a long illuminated tube with a handle which makes sound effects,

Now that's funny.

UberDave: I think it is valid that they *don't* allow people to carry real lightsabers. They're a danger to the people wielding them more than anyone else as most people are *not* Jedis...

I think such a problem will sort itself out quickly enough.

Costco use to sell those lightsabers.

I've got a bad feeling about this...

Pocket Ninja: I like how the article actually uses a picture of Ewan McGregor holding a real lightsaber.

Not as clumsy or random as a blaster; an elegant weapon for a more civilized age.

Lando Lincoln: This kind of thing wouldn't happen anymore if the UK would let people carry around real lightsabers.

First you let people carry lightsaber, then the criminals start carrying blasters, and before you know it someone is driving an AT-ST down your street. This is not the kind of world I want to live in.

Asians? Must be Trade Federation agents . . .

DjangoStonereaver: I prefer Park Sabers myself. They don't make sound, but they are made of
real metal, use indiglo lexan tubes, and run off normal batteries.

I got this one for my 40th birthday. (new window)

Would you mind posting a video of you practicing with it? Maybe some background music...

If we outlaw lightsabers, only Sith will carry lightsabers.

I thought a lightsaber would explode or something if you didn't have the force to make it focus or something like that.

Force was weak with this one and so fourth.

Sybarite: Obi-Wan? Now, that's a name I've not heard in a long time.

Ya know, I always hated this quote. OK, so I believe Luke was 18 when the events of ANH occurred. So even if 'Ben' had not heard that name for 18 years, is it really that long? Now, factor in some of the post new-trilogy books where Obi-Wan is running around still doing adventures such as saving other Jedi, and supposedly 'communing' with Qui-Gon Jinn while he's stroking his lightsaber on Tatooine, and it's even less time. So I don't know what the hell he talking about.

I think he's been out in the twin suns for a little too long.

Must have been lame Obi-Wan from the prequels.

Should've used the force on those kids.

Here he is!

suspect the presence of sith, i would.

4 asian youths? They'll be back and in greater numbers

theuglymerican: Asians? Must be Trade Federation agents . . .

Nah, Bothans... If you kill a bunch of 'em, you find out secrets!

Officers are particularly keen to trace two witnesses who went to the man's aid. They were a white man and woman, aged in their 20s, who are believed to live locally.

Police not interested in the 4 that jumped the guy and stole the saber tho, right?

Drink_Outside_The_Box: stroking his lightsaber

That's what you call it too, huh?

which was a Master Replica FX costing more than £100.

Holy farking shiat. They make toy lightsabers that cost £100. I think the ones my kids have are like $20. Of course, they are cheap-ass things made in China, but they make sound and light up.

/that's some weapons-grade dweebery right there

A shower curtain rod would suffice, if you don't want to risk the saber...

hugheric: 4 asian youths? They'll be back and in greater numbers


We were meant to think they were Asian kids, but those bruises & broken ribs were far too accurate.
Only Canadian Mounties are as precise.

That's because the prequels were a crock of shiat.

That'd be even better. Maybe your could get your wife girlfriend mom to sew the leftover curtain into a neat costume! Then everyone would have to take your interests seriously!

Hyde Park: You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious.

Slap hands, queers, you did it.

So, Lone Star, now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb.

Harry Freakstorm: Craiglist Item:

To the person who stole my lightsaber-

I feel your presence. I know you are near. When I find you I will treat you to a couple of physic pushes and if that doesn't show you who the master is, well, then I might just have to venture over to the dark side.

In the mean time, I shall warn you.
Do not use my light saber to light cigs for chicks in the bar.
Do not use my light saber to direct airplanes
And most certainly do not use my light saber as a giant glowing erect peener. There are considered Jedi skills and you are not a Jedi.

I will be seeing you soon.

It is not Okay to e-mail this person...

LOL that's wonderful. The line about the erect peener made me spit my water back into my cup.

/this is NOT the light saber you are looking for!
