To start the review here is a pic of both lightsabers side by side both with fresh battery's.
Anakin Rots (Top) Luke Esb (bottom)

As you can see they seem to be about the same in brightness.
the Anakin even looks better in pics,more or a white glow.
The sound.
Well the clash sounds seem to be very loud with both lightsabers,but the swing and idle hum of the Anakin will completely drowned out a Luke esb if both are on at the same time.
The hilt.
Here here is a pic Luke Esb left, Anakin Rots right.

Both hilts look nice,like the power button placement on the Luke over the Anakin.
But I like the lighter weight of the Anakin,especially for saber spins and twirls.
The only thing I don`t like about the Anakin is some of the chrome has rubbed off on my power button..
But beside that I still have to say the Anakin comes out on top as best saber!
Here is a solo pic of both the Anakin and Luke to end the review and let you come up with your own conclusion.
But in my opinion Anakin is #1
Luke Esb

Cool, the anakin rots looks brighter than the luke esb in these pics

Trexy, did you really need to quote the whole initial thread in your one-line response?! :D
Good review, though interesting that the Anakin appears brighter. My Luke is brighter than all three Anakins I owned briefly. (There are images in the fx-sabers main gallery.) Perhaps the Luke is brighter in the dark, but the Anakin brighter in the light?!
I'm currently one who personally prefers the Luke, though I am coming round to thinking smaller is better for twirling. (I've made, out of a broom-handle, a twirling saber. Foam grip, blue "blade", and it's so easy and nice to practice some twirls.)

:D :D
well i like the photos
-
I still like the luke better
-
In the first pic doesnt the luke esb blade look longer than the anakin blade ?
Yes it is.
-
Cool pics..Thanks...
But I tend to agree with the others..
My Luke ESB is consideably brighter than my Anakin ROTS..
-
I tend to think of it as a bluer vs whiter issue myself, and in that way I can see both points of view.
-
Ive found that my ESB Luke has a lighter shade of blue in all lighting conditions, thats with fresh batteries in both.
-
yea usually in the pictures i saw the luke ESB saber is brighter (that's what i heard)
but in ur pictures the anakin looks brighter
cool ;D
