The Force is with you, young SCI FI Tech reader, as you wander down the urban, rainy streets with your Light Saber Umbrella open and aglow for muggers to more easily spot you. You can always fend them off with your guard droid, however.

The Light Saber Umbrella generally looks like a regular umbrella, though the prop handle and glowing center pole give it away as anything but. You can apparently choose from red-top/red-light, black-top/white-light and blue-top/blue-light umbrella combos for about $42 each . For Star Wars lovers this will be a great collectible alongside your Star Wars Battleship game, Darth Vader flash drive and R2-D2 projector. — Nino Marchetti
