Hey everyone, thought some of you may like this. Found them at a Target store when I went to check out the toy isle. Used my EVO to grab these pics. They seem to be like the Force FX but smaller for kids. Still, they seem pretty cool and the sounds & swings seem to be pretty decent by kid standards. Nothing like Ultra's though, lol. Anyway, hope my pics & brief video turn out well as this is my first posting & I've never posted pics using the BBC share code. Im used to the browse/upload picture option.   UFXL1 by Ailric of KOTOR, on Flickr  UFXL2 by Ailric of KOTOR, on Flickr  UFXL3 by Ailric of KOTOR, on Flickr  UFXL4 by Ailric of KOTOR, on Flickr Seems I cant get the BBC share code for the video. Maybe because the video was taken with my EVO, but you should be able to see it on on the Flickr page as it was working for me. |

I agree with Darth Tratus ,I dont think they can stand up to the quality and combat functionality of an Ultrasaber.

Ultimate fx? Its made freaking plastic. it is a cheap worthless toy that a child would break all the leds within 5 minutes. At least it is cheap and parents will keep having to buy their child these everytime all the leds break.

They absolutely do not stand up to an Ultrasaber. My brother and I first started dueling with my saber (one of these FX jobs.) and he with his Shock LE with an Ultraedge Mid Grade blade. We weren't even going all out and my polycarb tube was cracked, LEDs blackened in several spots and my mechanical sensors all miscalibrated after being rattled by the Shock. Damage to the Shock LE... Zero. Not even a scuff on the Ultraedge. I could just imagine what he could have done had he used a Heavy Grade blade. Several months later, I purchased my War Glave with an UltraEdge Heavy Grade. Don't waste money on FX crap. Go with Ulteasabers unless you want to just pose for pics and never duel. |

Yeah I just got my Mid grade Ultraedge blade today and I love it! It's very hardy and I've used an FX saber before and I can tell the difference straight away! UltraSabers all the way  |

Of course they do not compare to ultrasabers, they're worlds apart. although i do have to say, i wish these were available when i was 11, instead of those cheap bulky electronic lightsabers......yeah, you know what im talking about |

I had a choice between those "ultimate FX " sabers for my kidds , or US Initiates. While the Initiates dont have sound , the qualtiy and craftsmanship US puts into them will make them last MUCH longer than the cheap plastic sabers with sound. There really wasnt much of a decision .....1 Initiate LE in AB, 1 Dark Initiate LE in VA, and 1 Dark Initiate LE in AS on thw way!!!!!!!!!! Thank you US!!

If I had the money, I'd buy one of these for a "durability test." (Really just an excuse to smash something.) |
