Offbeat: George Lucas wants to corner the lightsaber market for himself
- Is this a lightsaber? Good question. Gizmodo called it a “real life lightsaber.” Daily Tech notes it’s a weapon that can set people on fire – which sounds pretty lightsabery to us. And now, George Lucas’ folks have sent a cease-and-desist to Wicked Lasers, saying the Spyder Pro Arctic Laser looks too much like a lightsaber. And now, our friends at Wicked Lasers are denying it. We just want to be able to set people on fire without having to worry about lawsuits. source
