Flashing Panda Light Saber Multicolor Flashing LED Novelty Sword Rave Accessory

I bought this for my 5 year old and he loved it.. Actually we ended up splitting the sword in two and dueling all day! not the most durable.. but for 2 swords for $7.95, who cares! With light dueling this sword is great, or even a prop for a costume you can't beat the price.. the only drawback is that it doesn't make the saber sounds like the others.. but thats what your imagination is for!

When i opened the package one sword was in tact, though the other one was broken in half and would not turn on. i tried to get the sword replaced but all the seller would do is tell me to send a picture, after that no response over and over. they showed no sign of intent to fix the problem nor did they even offer to replace the broken sword. i give up trying to get it replaced but if you still want to buy it after reading this, know that the swords themselves resemble swords you could get at toys r us in the power ranger section. the lights are good, but the sound is a bit annoying. the swords are also very fragile,if you were in large crowd and someone happened to hit your blade wrong, it will without a doubt break in two. so if you do purchase this, know these things; the blades are fragile, the seller will do nothing to help if they are damaged upon arrival, the batteries seem almost impossible to replace without the sword being taken apart, and you could probably get something extremely similar to them at toys r us. so you may want to go to your local children's toy store before buying this one.

It's a good product for the cost but wish it was a bit more durable

This product is a double-edged sword. I was impressed with it, and disappointed at hte same time. As one should expect at this price, the plastic is very cheap. WIthin 5 mins the saber broke where the two pieces come togehter to connect. Very cheap flimsy connections points. However, I didn't expect a whole lot for the price.I was very surprised by the quality and brightness of the LED's though. The sabers themselves when lit up look great. Especially for $6. I ended up duct taping the sabers together to fix the break, and they seem to hold up pretty well. I wasn't expecting them to live past the New Years Eve party I'm going to, but either way, these are great looking LED.s Would of paid twice the amoutn for a well built one easily.

Quick delivery, and kids *love* it. I've bought 3 so far for my own, and my friend's kids. And while they are less sturdy than I'd like, you can't beat the price.

These items look great and operate just as described in earlier reviews. They are quite cool to see, especially at night. As singles, they are OK, but unfortunately, when paired together to make a double, the handle is so fragile that they break as soon as you start waving them around. As double sided, definitely not going to last as a kids play toy.Also, the quality of assembly is poor. My original order had one faulty sword, and one good working one. I contacted the company and they were great about it, sent a replacement out right away. Five stars for that customer service. But alas, the replacement arrived non-working. I took it apart and repaired a wire, not something I'd normally do for a novelty item at this price, but I had a real Star Wars fan on my hands... Got it working, it was great for about 10 minutes, then the handle broke...So, for this price, expect some doa items. If you really need these to work, I'd order a few so you have spare parts. Customer service was great. And, the ones that work do fine as singles, but don't expect the "double" configuration to last.

These look really pretty when lit up, but they don't work as good as I had hoped. When you hit it against something, the light goes off. And you don't have to hit it hard or anything. So, these aren't really good for any type of dueling. But they are fun to wave around a bit and watch them glow. We had fun playing with them at festivals and in the back yard. But kids will tear these up pretty quickly when let to just "go at it". As long as you are careful with these, they are fun and have nice colors. I like the color changing patterns that you can filter through. I would probably buy them again, just because I love glow toys so much.

It's light. It's not for playing sword fighting with. But it's fun and it's god sounds which are fun. Consider what you're paying for, and have fun with it. It's not good for staff twirling because of the weight and the buttons on the handle. Could be modified but absolutely not a good choice as is.
