Best Toy Lightsabers of 2023

If your favorite Star Wars fan can’t decide whether they’re on the Light Side or Dark Side, this lightsaber is fantastic. This single lightsaber is capable of displaying 11 different colors. Your child can choose their favorite, whether it be blue, pink, orange, or the rare purple.

The RGB LED lightsaber is ideal for cosplay and duels. The removable, replaceable blade is made of high-impact PC and measures 30.7 inches long.

We love how this lightsaber feels in hand. The hilt is smooth and neat aluminum and comes with a band to wrap it with for an authentic experience.

We appreciate the quality sound effects. Kybers included FX saber sound, allowing users to pick between three sound fonts. You also have three volume settings and — our favorite feature — a mute button, which is fantastic for those times parents can no longer deal with the noise.

While dueling, the sound and light effects activate as the blade hits opponents. You can even connect two lightsabers to create a Darth Maul double-bladed saber.

Now your kid can feel like they’re fighting in a real duel with this electronic lightsaber. It has incredible sound effects, bringing a realistic touch to this Star Wars toy.

This saber brings endless fun with its scream mode. To activate the saber, simply flick your wrist, and the blade extends. The switch on the handle activates the sound effects, and you’re ready to go!

What’s unique about the sound effects is that you can personalize them with your own voice. Yep — that’s right! You get to create your own. Kids love using their imagination to create realistic lightsaber sound effects. Or, they can go a bit wild and record silly sound effects such as a scream, laughter, silly words, or other crazy noises.

Each time they duel with the saber, it’ll make the prerecorded noise, which can end in a competitive duel or fits of giggles.

For those who love cosplay, we have this epic lightsaber from Saber Studios. It’s a realistic toy, perfect for children or adults.

The lightsaber has realistic features, including 10 sound fonts and emerging LED lights when activated, just like an authentic lightsaber. It lets you jump straight into the Star Wars universe.

The aluminum hilt is comfortable to hold. The hilt feels sturdy and measures 11 inches long, so the user can easily use two hands.

To ensure hours of fun, it comes with a built-in rechargeable battery. A full charge takes approximately four hours and provides play for a couple of hours.

Become any Jedi from the movies by changing the lightsaber’s color — there are 12 options. You can also choose between different colored hilts — including black, gold, green, and blue.

Inspired by “The Force Awakens,” the Star Wars Bladebuilders collection from Hasbro is a build-it-yourself bundle. It allows your child to connect and build lightsabers of different variations depending on their play.

In the Jedi Master bundle, you’ll receive a blue lightsaber, two light daggers, a cross connector, two elbow connectors, and an expansion hilt.

You can use the light daggers and lightsabers to create the ultimate weapon depending on how you set it up. It’s fully customizable to your preference, so you can duel in your own style.

When swinging the lightsaber, it creates authentic sound effects. It features motion detection lights, which activate as the user begins to battle. As darkness falls, the LED lights will shine, helping your mini Jedi fight evil.

The bundle is recommended for children aged 4 and up. It requires six AAA batteries, which are included in the package.

Take a trip back to the Return of the Jedi, and let your child battle it out as Luke Skywalker. This lightsaber from Hasbro is a close replica of the iconic green blade Luke used in the movie. It’s a sword that will spark some imagination, taking the user to a galaxy far away.

Reviewers have a lot of praise for this product. It’s not for heavy dueling, but the authentic feel has many choosing it for taking to conventions. It’s authentically designed with a metal hilt and a bright display for maximum light.

The lightsaber includes motion detectors. While swinging the blade, it showcases realistic lights and sounds, such as battle clashes. It’s also available in Darth Vader’s red if you want to go over to the Dark Side.

On the hilt are realistic buttons to activate the lightsaber. It’s collector-grade quality, excellent for Star Wars fanatics.

If your child is a fan of “Revenge of the Sith,” this lightsaber, inspired by Master Mace Windu, will surely suffice. The purple lightsaber is excellent for getting immersed in the 2005 movie as the Jedi master.

With this lightsaber, the user can enter combat against evil, activating lights and sounds just like in the movie. You can connect this purple lightsaber with other Bladebuilders for the ultimate weapon. However, these are sold separately.

The blade retracts into the handle, allowing you to genuinely recreate some exciting moments from the movie and activate the lightsaber as the enemy approaches. It’s a recipe for hours of fun, even for mom and dad.

For some parent versus child fun, we present this set from Liberty Imports. It consists of two lightsabers, one green and one blue. The colors are vibrant thanks to the strong LED lights that are capable of lighting up a dark room.

These intergalactic weapons feature fantastic sound effects, even the humming, once activated.

While swinging the blade, it creates clashing sounds, great for play. Kids will love the lights. Besides being vibrant, they have a flashing mode for getting into the action of battle.

The blades are a little shorter than the others on our list. They measure 28 inches long and are more like replicas of Yoda’s lightsaber. They’re suitable for children aged 5 and up.

Each lightsaber is made of child-friendly, non-toxic, durable plastic. They’re high-quality models but not for hard-impact dueling. If your child wants to play alone, they can connect both swords, creating a double-bladed weapon.
