5 Reasons NOT! To Buy Leia Organa Force FX Elite Lightsaber

In this video I go over more than 5 reasons why you should NOT spend $300 on this Princess Leia Organa Force FX Elite Lightsaber. Glitches, scratches, it's... not pretty.
With so many other options for a Leia Organa lightsaber from other stores, do you think that Hasbro needs to clean up their products? Let me know in the comments.

My force fx Anakin lightsaber from MR spent 8 years in a non-temperature controlled storage unit, one of the batteries had even leaked inside the hilt; I got it out of storage, cleaned it inside and out, changed the batteries, and it works and looks like the day I bought it in 2005. Master replicas knew how to make quality stuff.

@@FindingTheForce I have the 2005 master replica as Anakin Lightsaber from revenge of the Sith and to my knowledge they actually obtained the props used in the movie to base the Hilts off of and I remember they ran a bit over $100 at the time but god the quality and feel of this hilt is 1000times better than any black series or hasbro force fx lightsaber I’ve felt recently and that’s based off of the Rey black series force fx and the galaxies edge graflex which both can run up to $300

I have one from when i was 19/20 Im 39 now. Was a best buy exclusive.

[@Dizz18]

I was one of multiple that received theirs with scratches/smudges/flaws. And I agree with you about the battery pack retention screw. Idk why I need to loosen a screw AND the pommel to take the battery pack out. If losing connection, they should have that solved by now with 20 years of Force FX lightsabers. Overall poor showing from Hasbro on this one and not seeing the value with nearly $300. Still though, the color is perfect. They beat the GE on that alone

[@zombiesmith5735]

Thankfully I haven’t had any of these issues with mine. I’m wondering if, due to supply chain issues, they rushed quality control in order to get these to market? Maybe Hasbro thought it was better to sacrifice some quality to get these out to consumers and not delay the release. Hasbro is no stranger when it comes to quality control with their Star Wars product - the paint applications and other issues with both black series and vintage vogues have been ongoing. Hasbro knows that Star Wars fans will by their products even if the quality isn’t up to par.

[@fertacrit2753]

Thanks for the review!! I have the Rey and Supreme leader Kylo elite, and haven't had any issues. Just got the elite Vader, so far so good. I like the force FX cuz they come with nice stands and are pretty accurate. It will be a more uniform display if I stay in the FX Elite family. I don't have $500+ to spend on something that is goin to be mostly for display. The Darkwolf Leia V.2 saber is beautiful, but no matching stand and almost $200 more. That said I will be passing in the FX leia saber. Your review has confirmed a few others I have seen. Let's hope they don't "mail it in" with the Kenobi, like they did this.

[@FindingTheForce]

You are very welcome and thank you to you for watching. I'm very happy to hear that your Rey and Kylo elite sabers are working well, unfortunately I have heard from a lot of viewers that they have had a lot of the same issues we have had. How did you get the Vader elite saber so soon?

Went to Hasbro Pulse to check it out and the listing had no sort of future release date and did not have the "pre-order" banner. So I "added to cart", paid and the next day got a notification it was shipped. Just checked and the listing still states in stock.

Thanks for the review. I'm glad I didn't get this one for my channel review now. Would hate to spend the funds to get one solely for a review and it be this bad. The sound issue with loosening the pommel could be due to a lack of sound ports in the cap and when the pommel is tightened its choking off the sound and air movement of the speaker. That ghost glitch would drive me crazy as well. I'm really disappointed because I had high hopes for this saber. Thanks for the review and MTFBWY....Always.

TKC, What’s up man, thanks again for stopping by. You could be right with the air, that’s a really good idea. Would normally affect speakers but maybe just these cheaper ones with the Hasbro Sabers. You like that 👻 glitch? 🤣🤣 That was like… the icing on the cake. Take care bro! 👍🏻

[@FindingTheForce]

🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️ well first of all Daniel thank you very much for the compliment, really appreciate that. If I did not believe in Artsabers as a company I would no longer promote their products. The only reason you have heard bad rumors is because other companies that are jealous of their success make up lies that are selling similar products. Mistakes can happen with any business, but I have heard many examples of them fixing mistakes and honoring their product warranty. They are very easy to get a hold of on Instagram. 👍🏻 I would also be honored if you would consider using my discount code, thank you so much for watching.

This is kind of a delayed reply (about 1 year late), but you know what they say, good things comes to those who wait! I just got mine at Ross & for me I'm quite satisfied with mine. You can't go wrong with $40.00! The sound is soft compared to my rey skywalker lightsaber. The gurgling sound from yours could be a bad copy. I don't have that on mine. The same saber effects, swinging motion, clash, lava drag, & defector sounds, on/ off button, & I like the weight of it too! It's lighter than the rey lightsaber so waiting for it at Ross, you could have gotten a better copy at a much, much lower price! 🤞😎 $ 💯

Thanks for the video as I pre-ordered the Hasbro the black series princess Leia organa force fx lightsaber through GameStop & it's release date was June 2022 then went to October 2022 then disappeared from the GameStop website and never got help or answers on what was going on with the lightsaber from GameStop employees so I cancelled the order and got my money back on a gift card. I have Rey's yellow lightsaber and I really like everything about it. I blame Bob Chapek rearrange the letter's in his last name and lose the (k) and you get cheap and that's the route it looks like they took.

If someone were to need a Leia Saber (me), what one would you recommend?

[@FindingTheForce]

If it's purely to look at on a shelf and never... ever touch. This one If you were going to use it.... neopixel. : )

[@briceneihardt4489]

@@FindingTheForce thank you!

[@fertacrit2753]

Darkwolf Sabers has a beautiful Leia V.2 saber with polished chrome and rose gold chrome. Unlike the FX Leia. Spendy if you go neopixel...but very nice

[@NovaWarrior22]

I'm going to buy it I don't care what you say! I love Leia it's not super pricey also it's just for show not for battle btw

[@FindingTheForce]

For a show piece... this will definitely do the trick. Also, I have read some comments from viewers that theirs works better than mine. So I will keep my fingers crossed for ya bud.

[@NovaWarrior22]

@@FindingTheForce just so you know my comment wasn't meant to be negative in any way I'm sorry if you took it that way I come across a little blunt thank you for your review 100% will be a showpiece catch you on the next video

[@NovaWarrior22]

@@FindingTheForce thank you so much

[@FindingTheForce]

No worries, man, thanks for the follow up. I didn't think you were being negative, I love it when people are passionate about having a positive attitude about Star Wars.

[@AnakinSkywalkeryounglingslayer]

I think the reason why is because the sound holes change they have to match up with the speaker inside the hilt to get a clear sound

[@paulnicholson5997]

So the saber that " lava melts" halfway down the blade is the Rey saber with the yellow blade. Man that Leia saber is pretty rough, and I didn't like the phantom sounds one bit. Imagine grabbing something from the room it stored in, you go in real quick to grab something and it starts making THAT sound! No way. Yeah, I think that's the worst one I've seen you review. I also have the fx kenobi on pre-order, and they are definitely jacking the price up bigtime. That's cool you've got Artsabers as a sponsor. One of the first things I did when I really started getting higher end sabers was to find out where the U.S. suppliers get theirs. So I save a bunch of money that way.lets hope the Obi-Wan fx isn't crap. Talk to ya later Obi-dad. BTW I have an 89sabers Luke ep6 (new version) It's got the correct yellow under the emitter. Later. It should be here in a week.

[@FindingTheForce]

Yes, the Rey, thank you! Lol 😂 Hahaha yeah, those Phantom swing sounds would scare the crap out of me in the middle of the night.

[@paulnicholson5997]

@@FindingTheForce Yeah, it would be Finding new shorts@ Finding the Force!

[@DrOtaku-oq1nb]

I bought it today for 100 bucks in a sale store, I think is a great price for what is a Black Series lightsabers

[@marcusvic8832]

GENERAL KENOBI!

[@FindingTheForce]

lol... His Clone Wars armor is the best!

YYYEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!!!

[@Huamogus501st]

Hey guys I’m going to galaxy’s edge for the first time in xmas so which sabers do u recommend cos i am prob only going once

[@dacariice19]

Go for the one you like the best visually. If you have to pick one I would suggest Ashoka. It comes with 2 hilts and they can change color from blue to green.

[@Klynch111]

Luke skywalker Rotj saber would be my choice I go over in October and def gonna get it, I done the savi workshop last time but I regret not getting lukes at the time

[@Craiggg12345]

I went to Disneyland couple times last month. I purchased Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, SkyWalker, Darth Maul (double sided) Mace Windu and Kylo Ren. My favorite so far is the Darth Maul with 36 inch blades.

[@dacariice19]

I got the skywalker black box. I got Ashoka and 2 Cal Kestus. Also made one at savi. I’m done with Disneyland. I’m now going to graduate to a neopixel high quality sabers. One expensive saber at a time lol

[@Craiggg12345]

@@dacariice19 mine are just for display lol

[@Bread_LM]

YEESH, that's a ROUGH saber.

[@FindingTheForce]

Yeah… definitely not worth the price. Thanks a lot for watching man.

[@nslater1388]

I bought a elite fix saber then got a proffie neopixel FOR THE SAME PRICE and it was infinitely better. So I’m down hundreds of dollars and can’t return it because I opened the box. Very disappointed.

[@klumbojumbo]

Cant wait for the vader saber

[@FindingTheForce]

Hey man, thank you for the suggestion. I’m hoping for the best but sadly expecting the worst.

[@klumbojumbo]

I wonder when it’s coming out for full order

[@jamiedrinkwater9467]

It’s because it’s not tight enough on the hilt. The battery’s are not connecting

[@FindingTheForce]

Hey Jamie, it’s actually the opposite. I had it tightened all the way and it was making that horrible sound. So I loosened it and it cleared up for just a minute or two. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@Bored_Overthinker]

this is kind of sad, because immediately after I saw the rise of skywalker, I really wanted to get leia's lightsaber. I've loved the character since I was a kid, and I thought it was so cool out she had a lightsaber on screen.

[@cosmiclikesminecraft]

Cant lie I do like the de activation sound

[@FindingTheForce]

Right on Korhu, totally respect your opinion. The speaker just sounded terrible .. but I could tell there was a nice ignition sound in there somewhere. Maybe mine was defective?

[@bryansalvagejr757]

My wife brought me this one instead of Obi Wan on Christmas Day…. divorce is still an option

[@johnharris8335]

The Darksaber is Force Effects is nice.

[@laguy8181]

That’s a lot of money for those issues. Might as well buy it strictly for display. Guess they should make one that has no features so you can get one just for display at a cheaper price

[@FindingTheForce]

You are right Jeremy… that’s all it’s really good for. But… it is pretty. 😆

[@fenryrthegunner]

The Stand has the republic military pattern, which has taken over the empire.

[@s13danny]

Clone wars ahsoka’s is my favorite force fx saber

[@FindingTheForce]

Good choice Danny! And I think they turned that unique yellow color... even tho they only came in one size. : /

Hahaha… yeah, kinda does. 😬🤦🏼‍♂️

The Kit Fisto saber is really the only amazing one theyve done

[@FindingTheForce]

Hey Leon. I really am glad to hear that yours turned out great, we did a review on that Saber and had just as many problems. Sounds like there’s too much inconsistency with their products.

[@LeonVP70]

@@FindingTheForce thats fair. Yeah mine perfect and weirdly brighter than my saberforge or ultrasabers standard led lightsabers and the sound is great. Only gripe is the activation switch you have to turn the knob instead of pressing it which is just dumb and inconvenient lol
