FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Is the Force FX Lightsaber a licensed collectible?
A: Yes. The Force FX Lightsaber is a licensed collectible approved and endorsed by Lucasfilm
Ltd. As a collectible, the Force FX Lightsaber is not suitable for children under 14 years of age.
Adult supervision is recommended.
Q: Is the Force FX Lightsaber a limited edition prop replica?
A: No. Although the design of the Force FX Lightsaber is faithful to the look of the movie prop,
it is not an exact replica. The hilt of the Force FX Lightsaber was made slightly larger than the
actual movie prop in order to accommodate the electronics that control the light and sound
effects. The Force FX Lightsaber collectibles are not limited to a pre-determined edition size;
therefore, they are not classified as limited edition replicas.
Q: What is the blade on the Force FX Lightsaber made of?
A: The Force FX Lightsaber features a polycarbonate blade. Once activated, the blade glows
brightly and the replica plays back digitally recorded sound effects taken directly from the film.
Q: Is the blade on the Force FX Lightsaber removable?
A: Yes, the blade is removable; please refer to instructions on this sheet for proper removal.
Q: How do the light and sound effects work in the Force FX Lightsaber?
A: The Force FX Lightsaber incorporates motion sensors, which sense both the motion of the
blade as well as when it comes in contact with something. An on-board, multi-channel chip is
programmed with digital sound effects originally created for the movie by Skywalker Sound.
The Force FX Lightsaber replicates the following sound effects:
• Power-up
• Idle hum
• Swing (with pitch change)
• Clash
• Power-down
Q: How long should the light in the Force FX Lightsaber last?
A: It should run for several hours on a fresh set of batteries. The electronics, if cared for
properly, should last for several thousand hours of use. Replace the batteries whenever the
performance begins to change, such as reduced brightness or volume.
Q: Can I use my Force FX Lightsaber for dueling?
A: No. This product should not be used to strike people or animals. Although the blade is very
durable, it should never be used for fighting or dueling. The Force FX Lightsaber was produced
to be a collectible.
Q: Sometimes I see a dark spot in the middle of the blade. Is there something wrong with the
lightsaber?
A: No. The dark area is actually a result of the design. All the Force FX Lightsabers are
handmade and as a result, this slightly dark area at the middle of the blade is normal. This does
not affect the performance of the lightsaber in any way.
