@atannir I think the headline is another pun, or at least a riff on a very old meme: Two for Flinching (Four for Fighting…). Or perhaps just unintentional because it’s hard to believe anyone working at meh.com is as old as I am, and it’s from my father’s generation!
It’s good that these say ‘Star Wars’ in big letters right on the hilt so they will not be confused with the lightsabers of another inferior lightsaber franchise.
These are horrible. Came with dead batteries. No big deal, look like it’s just a AAA. Nope. It’s three obscure small watch batteries that will cost more than the toy. Boo on you meh.

Fuck it. My kids need some joy in their life.

@show_the_ma That’s a pickle all right…
@show_the_maw Is that Joy standing there?
Appreciating the pun in the model number, although that probably borders the edge of my baseball knowledge.

@CatsAreGods There is also the musician Five for Fighting which might be what they were going for.
@atannir That’s a lot more likely then. I never heard of them, probably because I’m too old.
Get it Carol? A macarena of time!

Anonymous gift for the niece and nephew. Yes.

Ah yes, a four pack of “DAAAAD!! DOROTHY HIT ME WITH HER SWOOOOOORD!”
perfect for waving a 737 into a parking spot at the gate, too!
@alacrity AND THEN CHOPPING IT IN HALF!
Don’t buy these. They’re not very cool and they use button batteries for some dumb reason.
@medz thanks for the heads up…was about to snag em for the neighbor’s kids but being buttons cell, I’ll pass.
@medz Requires 1.5V A76 alkaline batteries

If anyone eats the button batteries, it’s probably going to be me. What the hell

Saturday night’s alright for fighting
Their sounds are made with the imagination of the user, or the whining of the sibling.
Light sabers? Is it that close to May the 4th already?
Heads up: according to Amazon reviews, at less than 2.5 feet in length, these are good for toddlers at best.

@CosmicTwister Do or do not, there is no watch battery powered light saber worth buying at any price.
I am disturbed by your lack of faith…and D batteries…

Bought these before Christmas. Made four kids very happy.
It’s good that these say ‘Star Wars’ in big letters right on the hilt so they will not be confused with the lightsabers of another inferior lightsaber franchise.
You missed an opportunity with these. May the 4th is right around the corner.
Rubbish. Small and just don’t perform under pressure.
The lightsabers too.
These are horrible. Came with dead batteries. No big deal, look like it’s just a AAA. Nope. It’s three obscure small watch batteries that will cost more than the toy. Boo on you meh.
I can’t say how these work. I never received the ones I ordered.
They don’t stay on. Kind of disappointed by that. They look great otherwise but they are not very big. Perfect for what I wanted but small otherwise.
