Lightsaber Wall Sconce

There are awesome movies and then there is Star Wars. No other movie, in my humble opinion, has captures the movie goer’s imagination quite like the trials of Luke Skywalker and his band of Jedi fighting for the good of all mankind. Of course, nothing can beat the original trilogy in my book. However, that is just me. Good news though if you are a Star Wars nut like myself because there is something else that you absolutely have to get to add to your Star Wars memorabilia collection.

The Lightsaber Wall Sconce Lamp is a to-doe-for lamp that actually switches colour and emits the same lightsaber sounds that you can find in the movies. It is easy to hang on the wall – all you need to do is use the integrated bracket to place it up and you are good to go. Once you have done that, switch it on and you will see it in all its Jedi blazing glory!

When you first get the Lightsaber Wall Sconce Lamp, it comes in a few pieces which you need to assemble together in order to get the shape of the real lightsaber. However, it is extremely easy to do and you will soon find yourself with your very own lightsaber. You also get a remote control that you can use to switch colours – you get up to 8 choices. This is definitely a must have for all Star Wars fans out there. Hang it on your wall, hear it hum its tune and you will be brought into a galaxy, far, far away in no time!

The Voice Activated R2-D2

Now you have the Star Wars light saber, why not have a loyal companion to help you fight against the dark side and dark forces of the Sith? The motorized replica of the droid from Star Wars responds to your commands as you speak and it can navigate rooms, hallways and it also makes your home look very interesting with a droid lurking in your hall. The Voice Activated R2-D2, also affectionately called the R2, will obey and can identify up to 40 different kinds of commands such as move forward, turn around, come here and etc. and he can also play games such as tag by using its infrared sensor to look for people in the room.

The sensor for the Voice Activated R2-D2 makes it follow you from behind or you can set it to detect any motion as it guards your room from other people. You’ll have your own personal guard that will inform you if there is a person coming towards your room.

This Star Wars gadget has other features such as emotion changes and the lights on his body will flicker and change when he’s in a certain mood. If he is in a bad mood, a simple command like “R2, stop that nonsense” will bring him back to his normal joyful self again. The Voice Activated R2-D2 can also play back sounds from the Star Wars movies and mention certain dialogs. He can answer a yes or no question and even dance to the cantina music.

R2 will need four AA and four D batteries in order to bring him to life and the retail price for R2 is about $200. It is better than a pet dog because you don’t have to feed it!
