get a normal $12 light saber from a toy store.. don't get a game related product unless you plan on getting the game and game system since those will probabbly cost alot more then a normal play light saber (which they will probabbly beat up in a month or two)
here is a wallyworld listing http://www.walmart.com/search/search-ng.do?search_query=lightsaber&search_constraint=4171&tab_value=38_All&ic=48_0&ref=&search_sort=4&selected_items=+
take care and "May The Force Be With You" (and for the alt lifestylers "May The Schwarts Be With You")
I actually don't have a Wii, but I have a question for those who have the Wii light sabre attachment: Will it work (light up) without the Wii controller?
I have a 2- and a 3-year old boy and they're crazy about Star Wars (clone wars), and light sabers in particular. Right now they're using the bottoms of 2 toy golf clubs. I saw these wii sabers and thought they might enjoy them as a Christmas gift, but I'm not sure if they need the controller for some reason -- sharing batteries or something?
TIA.
