From MR direct. I probably will never shell out 300+ for a static replica. My next purchase will be either the Vader FX or a Parks. I most certainly want to try a Parks though.
I'm pissed beyond belief that this won't be here for Halloween, even though MR led me to believe so via Email and Phoncon.
**Shrugs** Well Jeff Parks, you just won another customer without me even trying one of your sabers. At least you come out up front and say 12 WEEKS FOR DELIVERY!!!
Rant Done.

Yeah, most saber makers can are honest on how long (emphasize on the "long") it will take them to deliver, MR on the other hand...

Bandit-Jedi: the problem with your FX sabers is the battery compartment. I myself had a problem with alkaline, the saber acted funny and shut of or didnt work unless you messed with the housing. the directions say use alkaline only. i dont know if they literally meant that but when i installed some rechargeable nihm batteries it wouldnt work at all.
we afte rinspecting it i realized it had to do with the deviders between the batterys to only allow the tip of the batteries to connect, and on rechargeables like my nihm they are very flush compared to alkaline throw aways. so i cut the deviders out. it was very easy and took 5 min. be careful and have patients. i used a very small wirecutter to cut them out and you cant even tell i did it or that they were there. anyway that solved the problem and it works flawlessly now with both types of batteries.
it is a very bright blade and worth every penny! i wouldnt want a saber that doesnt make any sounds. what would be the point. i want to feel like a jedi, and sorry but i think sound is just as important as visual...... hence home theaters.
I have had mine for 2 months....... beat the crap out of it. have hit it on walls , corners of tables...etc it can take a beating! even had a dual with a friend and no problems or damage. id rather lose $130.00 than $250.00 if it broke. plus when it dies it isnt a bad display piece.
im waiting to hear someone attempt to take off the blade. would be cool to be able to remove it when you want to display.
tonight the kids will be flocking me to see me dressed as a jedi with ny lightsaber.
have fun guys!

its alot of fun and i cant see getting bored with it.
I went trick or treating with my daughted lastnight dressed in my jedi costume and my MR lightsaber. well to say the least the kids thought the saber was really cool.
I will post a pic later but the coolest thing lastnight was answering the door dressed in my jedi costume with my MR saber and my interactive r2-d2 standing beside me as I answered the door for trick or treaters., that was the fun of the night as all the kids said i loooked awsome and my lightsaber was really nice and the biggest kick they got was watching me and r2 talk to eachother and him do stuff that i say. he was a big hit. i had my wife take a pic of me my saber and r2-d2 standing beside me. really cool!!!!!! i felt like such a jedi it was a young kids dream come true standing there looking at myself dressed as i was with a saber and r2. how dream like.

I'm sorry guys, but I am so f'ing pissed. I check my order status with Amazon, and its delayed again until DEC. Well I go to sears.com and they are selling it for $89.99 and ready for delivery. So I say cool, cancel the one on Amazon and go to Sears. I click the buy, opps they are out of stock and the sales end on 11/2/2. I cant even pre-order the thing to lock in the price. I cant take this crap anymore, I've had this on order since may, I pretty much dont want it anymore.
Edit: Ive decided that I'm not getting this. I rather put my money into something that I know I'll get better satisfaction from. This has just been a world of frustration. Owell.

Thanks, but not for $129.00. Other sites are selling them for under $100. I guess I'll have to wait, just very frustrating to get this thing.
