RGB vs Xenopixel / Neopixel

RGB (baselit) sabers light the blade from a single LED in the hilt, offering a wide range of colours and solid effects at the best value, and the most impact-resistant build for duelling. Xenopixel and Neopixel sabers use a strip of individually-lit LEDs inside the blade for ultra-bright, uniform illumination and advanced effects. See our electronics guide and buyer’s guide.

The Story of the Darth Malgus Lightsaber

Darth Malgus is one of the most imposing Sith ever brought to screen, the masked warrior at the heart of The Old Republic’s most memorable cinematic trailers. His hilt reflects the man: heavy, scarred and built for relentless warfare across the Old Republic era. This Battle Edition recreates that weathered design in full, machined from 6063 aircraft-grade aluminium, capturing a Sith Lord defined by ruthless power and a complicated, personal code of honour.

Famous Battles & Moments

The Sacking of Coruscant

Malgus led the devastating Sith assault on the Jedi Temple, his red blade cutting through the heart of the Republic. It remains one of the defining moments of the Old Republic era.

The Duel on Alderaan

In the ‘Deceived’ trailer, Malgus tore through Jedi defenders with overwhelming force, proving himself one of the most dangerous Sith of his age.

A Sith's Own Path

Malgus was never a loyal servant. Driven by his own vision of power, he eventually turned against the Sith Empire itself, his battle-worn saber marking every step of that defiance.

History of the Saber

The Old Republic era produced some of the most brutal and elaborate Sith weapons in Star Wars history. Malgus’s hilt is among the most distinctive — a heavy, war-scarred design that speaks to years of constant battle. This Battle Edition captures that lived-in, weathered character while remaining fully functional and ready to ignite.

Combat Style

Malgus fought with overwhelming, physical aggression, using his size and strength to batter down any defence. His style favoured raw power over finesse, every strike intended to end the fight. This replica is balanced to let you channel that commanding presence safely.

Why Collectors Want It

Malgus is a fan favourite for anyone drawn to The Old Republic, and his towering, battle-worn hilt is instantly recognisable. It makes a commanding centrepiece for any collection, equally striking on display or ignited in hand. Built from 6063 aluminium with heavy-duty polycarbonate blades, it is ready to duel out of the box.
