I'm ordering one. I've emailed them asking for a shipping discount. I don't think it's unreasonable, considering I ordered my Arctic a couple weeks ago. If they accept my request, I'll have it ordered tomorrow. If you have an Arctic S3, much less a Krypton, you've obviously got a little disposable income. I don't know how any S3 owner could pass this up. I'm going to have to make a stand for this. It will make a cool conversation piece.

With regards to the lawsuit, I hope WL worked it out with Lucas ahead of time. Surely the last lawsuit didn't escape their memory. Since they aren't calling it a Light Saber, I doubt they licensed it:

You need to keep your anger directed at Wicked Lasers, not at happy owners of their products.

So what you guys are saying is I can't cut bread with this and not need a toaster?

I will buy one of these when they are functional, with no solid tube blade, I want a self terminating beam and a knob to adjust blade length would be nice.

I'll stick to Phasers thank you.


as for the lawsuit potential, in the beginning of the clip is that an actual star wars sound clip?
eesh - if so that is risky business

Ok so they call it a laser saber not a light saber. Now we all know kids will not use goggles and when they knock off the tube they will blind each other. Great job Wicked another NEW product that will sure be a hit with your 12 year kids that you market to. If ever buy a Wicked product PLEASE kill me because I have lost my fricking mind.

It can cut bread. But you could probably cut through it faster by placing the loaf under a a dripping faucet. :)

You need to mind your own business. I'm allowed to have my opinions just as much as you do. If you dont like it click ignore, if not then GTFO. Its your choice.

They say you shouldn't duel with them, and that you should always wear laser goggles. Wouldn't you have more fun swinging around a green spray painted pvc pipe?

Absolutely, hitting eachother with plastic pipes is good fun, doesnt matter if you pretend they are lightsabers or not.

Also, just saying someone hit you with a pipe is a more credible story at the ER compared to a lightsaber injury :D

Unreal!!!

I can't belive I bought a laser from this company. They care nothing for safety and give laser operators a bad name. Sure its all fun and games until an eyeball gets fried. I dread the upcoming blindness reports from this. I can see the headlines "In tonights news a young kid went blind after playing with a laser saber from WL"

WL has gone off the deep end for sure:wtf:.

A guy from WL told me they had sold 70,000 lasers and that was a year ago--the long wait time was when they were making 500 Arctics a week.

My new krypton has a SN of 75,1xx. I guess business has slowed down quite a bit.

Recieved my two lasersabers today after it's bin held at customs for over a week.

i don't think i will do a review about it, sinds the love for wl here is... ^^

But there's one thing i have to say about the company.

It was at customs so long couse they couldn't value it, so i got a letter from them telling me i have to discribe what's in it and it's price.

Wl sended me a invoice that i could sent back to customs.
They marked it as 100$ (i buyed two, so should be double right?)

I had to pay 30.55 euro taxes (customs)
Today wl refunded me that 30.55 euro wich is $38,20 USD.

How generous is that.

That looks cool. It's a shame it only works on the WL ones. I want it on my Maglite
