This is the first lightsaber I bought at Sharper Image in 2005. Tonight I unpacked it, examined it and powered it on. Aside from the hilt rubber being a little sticky, it looks and performs like it is brand new. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
Full disclosure for all my lightsabers (I intend to sell 7, including this one). You will receive essentially the same item I did, except that I borrowed it for a while. I have treated my lightsabers with the utmost respect. Aside from the issue I mention below, they look just like they did when I bought them.
Over the years a few of the blades (when turned off) have become slightly discolored kind of a creamy beige color. Others (including the Anakin one listed here) have retained their original white color when not activated. I have no idea why this discoloration has occurred.
That said, when activated, every single one of them lights up exactly as it should, and with the correct color. Before I removed the batteries, though, I tested each one to ensure that it powered up correctly all did. Finally, to forestall any questions about the Darth Maul sabers yes, both of them have the parts necessary to make the double-bladed saber. Just be aware that doing so makes the thing about 8 feet long, so please use caution when wielding it!
