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 Mace Windu Lightsaber – Neopixel & RGB
Mace Windu stood second only to Yoda — the Order’s champion, master of the most dangerous Jedi form ever devised, and bearer of the only purple blade in the galaxy. His electrum-finished hilt reflects his rank: reserved for the Order’s most senior masters, elegant without a single wasted line. This replica recreates it in machined 6063 aircraft-grade aluminium.
Famous Battles & Moments
The Arena at Geonosis
Windu leads two hundred Jedi into the arena and opens the Clone Wars with a single stroke — the purple blade at the head of the Order’s greatest charge.
Vaapad Unleashed
Windu is the only Jedi to master Form VII, Vaapad — a style that channels an opponent’s darkness back at them. The purple blade is its signature, and no one else ever earned it.
The Chancellor’s Office
Windu bests Darth Sidious blade-to-blade at the Republic’s end — the closest any Jedi came to stopping the Sith rise, undone only by betrayal.
History of the Saber
Windu’s saber carries an electrum finish, an honour reserved for senior Council members. Behind the scenes, the purple blade exists because Samuel L. Jackson asked for one — and it became one of the most iconic weapons in the saga.
Combat Style
Vaapad is the edge of the dark side harnessed by discipline — constant, overwhelming pressure that turns aggression against its source. Windu alone mastered it, and this hilt’s clean balance suits that relentless style.
Why Collectors Want It
There is exactly one purple blade in the Jedi Order, and this is it. A Mace saber anchors any collection — instantly recognisable lit or unlit, with electrum detailing that photographs beautifully. Machined from 6063 aluminium, duel-ready out of the box.
