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. A full side by side of every board we fit, so you can choose the right saber with confidence. Still unsure? Message the workshop, we'll help you pick.

The Story of the Luke Skywalker V2 Lightsaber
Between the farm boy and the Jedi Knight stands Empire-era Luke — the student reaching into the unknown with his father’s blue blade. This Luke Skywalker V2 lightsaber recreates that Graflex-pattern hilt, machined from 6063 aircraft-grade aluminium, and now offers an optional hand-applied weathered finish for collectors who want the saber as it looked after the war rather than the workshop.
Famous Battles & Moments
The Wampa Cave
Hanging frozen in the ice, Luke reaches for the saber with the Force for the first time — the moment the Skywalker gift truly wakes.
Dagobah
Through Yoda’s swamps and the vision in the cave, this blade is Luke’s constant — the weapon of the hardest training any Jedi ever crammed into weeks.
Bespin
Luke walks into Vader’s trap with this saber and leaves without it — and without a hand. The blade falls into the clouds, carrying the legacy toward Rey’s story decades on.
History of the Saber
This is the Graflex-pattern blade of Luke’s Empire era — inherited on Tatooine, mastered on Dagobah, lost at Cloud City. The V2 edition delivers its silhouette at an accessible price, and pairs with our screen-matched Graflex EP IV flagship. Read more about the character in the official Star Wars Databank.
Combat Style
Empire-era Luke fights on instinct and raw talent — untrained aggression that Vader dismantles, and the humbling that forges the Return of the Jedi knight. The V2’s light, fast balance matches that eager, reaching style.
Why Collectors Want It
It’s the hero’s blue blade at an accessible price — the companion to our Graflex flagship, and the perfect starter for fans of the original trilogy’s middle chapter. Add the weathered finish for the lived-in prop look, or keep it clean for the workshop-fresh silhouette. Machined from 6063 aluminium, duel-ready out of the box.
