LOL-didn't read the fine print? WWMLD?

We're off to a birthday party this weekend and I bought one of the gifts straight off the gift list.

Except, when I got it today, it was light sabers alright. Replacements for minifigs.

Should I assume this is what she wanted, or think, like I did, that they wanted big light sabers to play with?

Here was the listing pic:

It just said Light Saber. Nothing about minis in the title.

In the listing pic they look lego sized.

How?

[jinkies]

Can you ask the parent? Do you have prime (so could get full size sabers before the party?).

If not, could you do a movie gift card or something instead?

I would not give them a baggie of lego light sabers as their sole gift.

I'm not sure. They just don't look like a full sized toy. They look like accessories. I might be full of crap, but they just look like little plastic light sabers to me lol.

[CloudBee]

Depends on the price? If they were $10 or less, I would assume she wanted the minis.

Can you tell based on any other items on her list?

They do look like they snap into a Lego hand.

[sugarbear]

There was a gift list? Is this a thing?

[karinothing]

I agree that they look like little plastic lego toys in the listing picture.

I would ask her mom. I'd let her know what happened and ask. She might not have known either. Assuming this is for a kid? I guess I shouldn't assume, I'm sure there are many adults that want to play with light sabers.

When I did a search on my PC for "Light Saber" on Amazon, that picture is title "Lego Lightsaber". On your phone, does it not say "Lego"?

[snipsnsnails]

If I were a 4-year old looking at that Amazon pic, I wouldn't think they were automatically Lego sabers. I mean, I'm 34 and I didn't.

I guess I'll just KOKO with these, though, since it seems obvious to most of you.

No, on the registry (which was separate but then linked to Amazon, it said 'Lightsaber Lot-6" but I don't know if the mom named it or the registry named it? When it links to Amazon, it does say Lego. I totally missed that when ordering. Thx!

[CloudBee]

4 years old? I would definitely ask the mom. 3 going on 4 and they might still be using Duplos, not requesting light sabers for their mini Lego figures.

[snipsnsnails]

There is other LEGO stuff on the list and this is not the only gift. It was a small add-on. I just didn't know it would be so, literally, small.
But it looks like I'm the dum-dum! Ha!

Ha, not typically, but the little girl is so sweet and wanted the theme to be a wedding where she was the bride! Ha. So, the invite had a little fun registry and a "reception" RSVP card.

[CloudBee]

Oh she'll love them, then!

What a funny surprise for YOU!

If there is other Lego stuff then you will be fine. I have spent many hours lately building Star Wars lego sets so that is the only reason I knew what they were.

Ha, yes, it's so cute. On the RSVP card, I had to note if Vincenzo would be attending as the [ ] groom, guest, usher or Father of the bride. It's going to be fun!

This is cute. She sounds like a girl who knows exactly what she wants I think you got the right thing.

Ok, I can totally get behind that, especially since she had light sabers on her registry! Super cute.

this is where I'm stuck.

Wait a minute.

People have gift lists?

[TrickyBob]

Some of you guys didn't read the whole thread lol

[shamrockshake]

I wish every birthday invite came with gift lists. It would make my life so much easier- I don't know what your kid has or would like- an amazon wish list on the invite would be fantastic.

[definitelyO]

those are definitely lego lightsabers.

mom to boy with thousands
