'You can pretend you have powers when you switch on Kenner's Star Wars Light Saber'

Let’s travel back in time to 1978 and take in this vintage Star Wars TV spot for Kenner’s inflatable “Light Saber” (note “lightsaber” as two words.) Look at those sabers wobble! Deadly stuff, kids. Be careful!

“The Star Wars Light Saber. New from Kenner. Balloons not included.”

If you’d like to check out the entire 1978 Kenner Star Wars toy line Plaid Stallions has got you covered.

Remember that neato scene in Star Wars when Luke destroyed the evil balloon?
