- Pro tip: If you have multiple models you’re shopping for (e.g. gun and display stand and display plaque), it’s highly recommended you upload all their parts to the same Wanted List so that you can more easily combine them into the smallest possible number of shopping carts / stores / orders placed at the same time for less expensive shipping.
If you encounter any parts errors (for example, parts 3062b, 3068b, 3069b and/or 3070b) when trying to upload your parts list code to BrickLink, open the text file with XML code in a text editor app, search for those codes (Command+F or Ctrl+F) and delete the ‘b’ or other add-on letter in each code. If you encounter any further issues, please contact me.

About the Model
This custom LEGO Star Wars lightsaber (Anakin Skywalker’s) is designed as a premium display piece. It features:
- advanced building techniques
- sturdy blade for gentle swinging
This Jedi Knight blade model is a fun conversation-starter for you and your family/friends! If you like my LEGO replica, please support my work and purchase a set of instructions.
So grateful for your support!

Please note that the LEGO model, while it uses advanced building techniques in the blade that make it more resistant to breaking, is still relatively fragile and cannot be expected to hold together under sustained periods of stress without continual re-compression of the pieces. “LEGO” is a trademark of The LEGO Group, which the seller is not affiliated with or endorsed by: same goes for Disney/Lucasfilm and their Star Wars property.
Note that this is a digital purchase that gives you the access and individual right to download and use the instruction files, parts lists, and XML code for this custom model. You will not receive any physical items or pieces as part of this transaction.
