Coolest… Thing… EVER!!!!!


Oh sweet Jesus, Think Geek is now featuring the Dual-bladed Darth Maul Lightsaber for a mere $199.00
Joy.
Now this ain’t your Toys R Us, Halloween lightsaber that you remember as a kid- no, this is a seriously cool replica that you want as an adult.


-Glowing blades ignites with realistic power-up/down effects!
-Authentic sound effects digitally recorded from the movie.
-Features four motion sensor controlled sound effects, Power-up, idle hum, clash, and power-down
-Durable metal hilt looks and feels like a real lightsaber.
-Sturdy blade is permanently attached to the hilt
-Comes with a custom-designed display stand when you need a break from dueling.

The blade is fabricated from poly-carbon (not carbonite) and is strong enough to hit things lightly, but not necessarily strong enough for fighting. This is good because otherwise my nerdlings and I would fight all day and never leave the confines of our nerd-lair.
Actually, I work with a guy who’s seen these and he said the realism (minus of course the ability to slice through metal and flesh and repel lasers) is really stunning. Everyone who sees one, wants one.

I’ve been told by several people that whenever the crap papers are signed I should go out and treat myself to something nice- I suppose they were thinking of some new clothes, some stuff for my bike, whatever. However, I might just be going in a different direction. If there was one thing I would have never been allowed to buy while I was married (other than maybe a crack whore)- this is it.


Comments:
Oh, BABY! I've seen them before, but I'm always reminded how much nicer they are than the $9.99 I have at my desk. I mean, I make the noises with my mouth, but it's far less menacing when I'm saying, "jooom"
 
I say go get what ever gets your little geek freak on, baby.
 
When the papers are signed, you can dress up a pillow and beat the holy piss out of it with your lightsaber. Now that is relief...AHHHHHH!
