Since there are umbrellas shaped as rifles and samurai swords, it's only fitting that the Star Wars Lightsaber Umbrella came along and satisfied sci-fi fans.
The Star Wars Lightsaber Umbrella is the latest series of parasols that are shaped in the form of a weapon -- a fictional one in this case. There have been a few on the market, but these ones are more detailed. Each of the handles have been shaped as a lightsaber used by Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader and Anakin Skywalker. The canopy also displays either the emblem of the Jedi Knights or the Galactic Empire depending on which character is chosen. It also comes with a carrying sleeve with a shoulder strap.
