The sabre part extended out like a cone. It lit up. Made cool sounds when you waved it around. Made the clash sound when you hit something with it. It was a fun toy. |
Haha, Surferguy and I had those for our Space Men Halloween costumes in 1998. They were the most expensive part, but no way we spent $60 on them. Probably not more than $10, and even that would have cut into the Pilsner budget pretty deep.
