We are serious Star Wars fans at Space. We can still remember having lightsaber battles with cardboard tubes and our younger selves would have been blown away by this awesome Star Wars Black Series Yoda Force FX Elite electronic lightsaber.

This lightsaber comes with its own stand so you can display it vertically with the blade, if you so wish. It comes with a removable kyber crystal and has a built-in rechargeable battery so you do not have to worry about buying batteries if this is a gift. Remember, Christmas is just three and a half weeks after Black Friday!

With a metal hilt, it is modelled on Yoda's lightsaber as seen in Star Wars: The Book of Boba Fett. It is extremely screen accurate, more so than lower-priced lightsabers. If you are into Star Wars roleplay, cosplay or just appreciate the small-but-perfectly formed Jedi Master, this is a great buy.

However, if you are looking for a lightsaber for younger children, you might want to consider some of our best lightsabers for kids. This Star Wars Black Series Yoda Force FX Elite electronic lightsaber is great for roleplay but it might not survive being repeatedly smacked against a wall.
