The saber Vader kept hidden. Starkiller's raw, industrial hilt in two builds, machined from aircraft-grade aluminium and assembled in our Lincolnshire workshop. Free UK delivery, no import fees, 12-month warranty.
Starkiller is Darth Vader's secret apprentice, Galen Marek. His lightsaber is deliberately crude — exposed wiring, salvaged parts — because it was built in secret. Red as Vader's apprentice, blue after he turns. We build it in 2 configurations.
2 builds available — each assembled and put through a 14-point quality check before dispatch.


Galen Marek — codenamed Starkiller — is Darth Vader's secret apprentice, taken as a child and raised to hunt Jedi. He is the protagonist of The Force Unleashed, and one of the most powerful Force users ever written.
Starkiller's hilt is raw and industrial: exposed wiring, salvaged parts, nothing ceremonial about it. It looks like something assembled in secret, which is exactly what it was. We build it in two versions.
Red as Vader's apprentice, blue after he turns. Both of our builds ship with a red blade as standard, and most boards let you change colour on demand — which suits Starkiller rather well, given he ends up on the other side.
Because almost nobody has one. It is a hilt that people who know, recognise instantly — and everyone else asks about.
The short version, so you can pick the right Starkiller saber. Full specifications are on each product page.
