    I ended up snagging this at half price (paid $130). At that price point i would say it is a no brainer. However, at full price i would say that it depends. If you are looking for a revan lightsaber, this is the one to get. But if you are looking at various sabers, the Disney ones have a bit more polish. The blades are much better fits on the disney ones and the literal polish of the metal is nicer. That being said, this FX saber does react to contact better and has the button you can press to enact sounds and effects on the blade (piercing a door, deflecting blaster bolts). Also the ability to be red or purple is nice. The stand i also think is nicer than the disney ones. If i could give half stars i would put it at 4.5, but its more 4 than 5 for sure.

    Not as good of quality as the higher end brands. However, as an aesthetic piece this is perfect. Pictured on far left. It changes between purple and red color.

    Darth Revan Lightsaber

    It's nice but I feel like it's a step backwards compared to older black series lightsabers. I have owned. For being all metal it is lighter than I expected it to be. The removable kyber crystal is nice but honestly switching between it and the blade is such a pain I don't see it as being something I will do often enough to make the inclusion of it worth it.

    I bought this as a collectible around Christmas of 2023 when it was on sale. The box was in great condition when it arrived, and it was delivered promptly as well. These ForceFX lightsabers are top of the line, though I wouldn't suggest dueling with them. The detailing and the effects are top notch.

    C'mon - Darth Revan light saber? Super geeked out for sure. Perfect embellishment for my husband's man cave. Definitely brownie points to redeem for life from my Star Wars loving geek hubby. :)

    Was handed the box as it’s shown in the picture with the top almost completely open and ripped up… took it home, got it all powered up, and turned out to be defective with none of the features working besides sound. Drove 40 minutes and back for an in-store pick-up just to get a defective piece that was supposed to be a gift, but instead now I need to figure out the replacement situation…

    I picked this up during a recent sale for half-off. Right away, the quality is good, with similar aluminum material that you might find in a replica from UltraSabers or Crimson Dawn. The included blade plug is a nice touch, and offers a unique sound to differentiate from when the blade is installed. The color-change function is easy to figure out and use. The only drawback to the hilt are the fins, which align with the claws at the blade emitter. The fins extend the length of the hilt and make gripping the thing uncomfortable. Barring that, it's a beautifully made replica and well worth it if you can catch it on sale.

    It’s Not A Bug, It’s A Feature

    Heaven help me, I can not stop collecting these fundamentally flawed lightsabers. I buy them when they go on sale (when they’re closer to being valued accurately), and I can’t think of a criticism that hasn’t already been said here by other, more coherent reviewers. Focusing on the good, this is a unique and deeply satisfying lightsaber to hold, look at, and hit Jedi with. Leia’s saber and Revan’s, while both flawed, are so uniquely beautiful that they aren’t a hard sell to a laser sword connoisseur. They have their problems, but I grew up swinging sticks and making whooshing noises because the toy lightsabers we got couldn’t even hit a carpeted floor without denting. If 9 year old me would have loved it, I love it and that’s as simple as it needs to be.

    Got item and the box was damaged the stand was broken and the saber kept turning off when it touched something. I brought it back and Best Buy is doing an exchange on it. When it did stay on it had a nice color and sound to it.

    I love how you can switch colors on the lightsaber but the thing that stops it from getting 5 stars is the handle doesn’t feel as sturdy as the other two I have. Still really cool

    I'm usually a Disney Legacy collector but they haven't done a Darth Revan so I went with this one. Overall very impressed. Color changing effect is cool, sound effects are nice. A bit of work to put batteries in and out.

    Overall it's ok the best part is the handle and the stand that came with it, confusing how to change the color back and forward. Compared to my other light sabers this was a let down.

    The most bad sith ever. Now you can be as cool as him with his classically designed lightsaber. This is my only one, so i can’t compare but overall i think its pretty awesome. I got it on a drop for a deal. Only con is that its not a real lightsaber, so i cant burn holes in my walls, but i also would have lost many limbs as well by this point, so i guess its okay.
