Really cool saber

Bought this at Fan expo Denver. I've had a little bit of problems where the blade freezes and suddenly or turns off for some reason. After taking the battery out of the pack and plugging it back it it seems to fix the issue though. Other than that its a great saber

An elegant weapon for a more civilized age

Definitely exceeded all my expectations! It’s everything I ever wanted: durability, realism, and attention to detail. This replica of Galen Marek’s lightsaber is indeed the best in the market! It’s especially cool because of how the exposed crystal changes color when the blade does. As well as the unique music and sound fonts that are provided only by Theory Sabers. Thank you for this ridiculously awesome masterpiece!

Best saber I’ve ever owned!

Absolutely love this saber! The fonts and colors are awesome. Incredible responsiveness to movement. The slightest twitch in my wrist and the saber sounds react to the movement. I love the easy controls, the easy ability to change color and sound font, etc. The user manual is great. Can’t say enough good things about this saber!

Expensive, but 100% worth it. Holding this thing made me feel like I little kid again. The hilt is beautiful and the exposed crystal gives it such a unique look. The swing audio is very responsive and the overall sound quality is great. I did have problems with loose screws near the emitter but their customer service was amazing and I have new parts on the way! Highly recommend.

Awesome saber!

This is a great saber, I love the exposed crystal.
The packaging Theory Sabers uses is excellent and it’s a really nice experience to open the box and the beautiful bag the saber comes in. But what’s really great is the set of sound fonts and blade profiles that come loaded. It’s a really great set and worth purchasing from Theory Sabers for that alone.

Beautiful saber but..

My saber was working fine but when I needed to charge it for a while and went to inserted the battery chassis and blade back in, my saber started to have problems with one RGB light color emitting from one side of the blade, so I had removed then re-Assembled the saber and now the blade no longer ignites but continues with emitting lights where it shouldn't be when not turned on or ignited.
I have read the FAQ page on removing the battery out the chassis itself and still continues with the problem. Waiting on help support email. Other than that the hilt is beautiful and amazingly detailed.

Proffie 32" blade - Beyond Impressed!!

This is my first time buying a saber and it won’t be the last, due to how great this experience has turned out. Ordering was easy, and delivery did not take too long at all. My saber came in less than two weeks and everything came in nice packaging, and no damages whatsoever.

Now when it comes to the saber… I can’t imagine it getting any better. The attention to detail and the quality is as good as it gets. I highly recommend the proffie. The colors and the sound are unbelievable!! It almost feels like it’s real at times.

Theory is clearly setting a new standard and I can’t wait to see where he takes it from here!!
