GEEKERY: A Lightsaber You Can Hit People With!
What fun is a glowing lightsaber you can’t actually fight with? None… which is why you need one of these!
Simulated sword fighting is the core of our soul at Calimacil. In the last decade, we have created the most advanced foam gear in the world for live action role play (LARP). From that experience, we decided to push the limits of design by creating the most iconic sword of all: the lightsaber.
The challenge was to build a lightsaber made of foam for safe play. To integrate light, we had to enhance the foam formula we normally use to build our products. Moreover, we had to develop a new technology into the handle to enable both light and sound. Thus our journey began, and we successfully achieved the creation of a fully immersive foam lightsaber!
This lightsaber is made of our special foam and is completely safe for dueling. We integrated advanced technology to enable the possibility to change light effects, sounds, and more.
The saber comes in several colors and packages (including an upgrade to bluetooth with a customization app). They’re also offering regular foam, but what’s the fun in that? I want glow, baby!
Want one? Glowing models start at $172 USD.

You know you want to be able to have this kind of duel without the use of CG…
What color is your lightsaber?
