I rate the Luke ESB the second lowest on the saber shelf, besides the ROTJ Luke. I am sorry, but both Luke ESBs I've owned have had MAJOR LED problems. One was from duel. (My faulty, BIG time) However, the second one I owned, got it 2 months ago (Factory sealed from MR) and the lights went out on it last week. Never was turned on much and never was stricken by another blade. Sorry, but 2 thumbs WAY down for this puppy. (Remember, this comes from two evaluations of the saber) :(
