Jason Skywalker Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Ever heard of these ones? Most of them are going out in November, but i've heard of some that are already out in some stores though. They are the ones that you press a button the blade extends. Unfortunately though, the top piece has the spring mechanism, and the light doesn't go fully to the top. I don't care though, i'm still going to buy them. There are going out a Darth Vader, Luke IV and V, Obi Wan I and II, a Jedi Lightsaber (Anakin's Ep. III hilt with a green blade), and a little while after these release, there's going to be released a Darth Maul one. I have pics for all though. Also, the pics are a little bit tall, so, mods, if you think they are big, put them in links please. The Darth Maul appears to be a Wal Mart offer or whatever it is, and doesn't seem to be spring-loaded, atleast by what the description on the official SW site said, but the image seems to say it's spring activated. Oh joys of joys! I'm going to try to buy Obi-Wan's, that's my favourite of the 5, then it's Darth Mauls, who a friend of mine is going to try and buy, and my brother if he wants, the Luke. Naboo Reactor Battle anyone? Anyways, discuss!
Diego Varen Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 I've seen them before. I have a very old one somewhere...
Jason Skywalker Posted October 31, 2006 Author Posted October 31, 2006 No, these are new, brand new. The old, basic ones, you had to flick the button upwards, and slash the air or so for it to go fully up.

Jason Skywalker Posted October 31, 2006 Author Posted October 31, 2006 Yeah, these you just press a button. Too bad i can't seem to find that button in the Obi-Wan one. I will defintely get the Obi-Wan for Christmas or birthday.
Jae Onasi Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Spring-activated blades? Oh, I see bad things happening with my kids slamming them into each other while playing....
Jason Skywalker Posted October 31, 2006 Author Posted October 31, 2006 Yeah, it's real nasty if you press the button and the blade extends into someones eyes...Gotta try that with my bro. If you're buying some for your kids (and you and Jimbo), show them what to do and what to not do, with some sort of duel. Can help.

HK-42 Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 Darth maul won dosn't have the words spring action like the others.
HerbieZ Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 I may get one if only to abuse the cat. I had a really fake old one somewhere but i broke it after beating a spider into a submission.
Jason Skywalker Posted November 1, 2006 Author Posted November 1, 2006 Oh, poor kitty, you meanie. If so, i guess you'll buy a Darth Vader.
RC-1162 Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 the Ani EP2 hilt with green blade looks appealing, but i got a 3 year old whose hobby is breaking my stuff running around the house, so i'll have to pass.

Jason Skywalker Posted November 1, 2006 Author Posted November 1, 2006 Nah, i don't want to hurt him! Also, i believe it isn't Ani's EP2 hilt, but it's is EP3 one.

Uh...very well. I bought about two, and then used them, but they accidentally stepped into my bro's crotch, wasn't my fault! I also think an eye popped out or something, but was because i extended into it's eye or something, i dunno... So, anyways, anyone got any info on upcoming Force Action, or these are the ones by now?
