I have the Hasbro Force FX Luke lightsaber from a couple of years ago. If this is the same as the one they’re currently selling, it’s pretty nice. It’s a replica of the ANH saber hilt with the bubble switch and no rivets in the rubber grips. As far as I can tell it’s quite accurate to the original prop. It also has the really neat feature of the fx blade being removable. It comes with an insert to put in where the blade comes out so it looks totally screen accurate when “off”. The blade is nice and vibrant and the sound effects are good. The motion control and impact activation of the sound effects works well. I also have an older Master Replicas Vader ANH force fx lightsaber. Comparing the two, the master replicas sound IS louder, but not so much so that it makes much difference, IMO. The master replicas also seems to have more individual lights in the blade so that the power up extension and power down retraction of the blade looks a bit smoother or more natural. But again, it’s a minor difference.

But with the awesome removable blade feature, I actually kinda prefer the Hasbro saber. I wish they were still in the $100-$120 range but even at $150 it’s really hard to go wrong. The removable blade Hasbro sabers are really fun to play with and they make wonderful display pieces with or without the blade.

JEDIT

Here’s a little illustration that might help you figure out the differences between the props. It doesn’t show how both OT sabers hung from the belt via a “D” shaped ring bolted to the bottom, whereas the ROTS hilt has the standard prequel style attachment where a black plastic circle on the side of the hilt snapped into a clip on the belt.
