Designed using advanced building techniques, this custom LEGO Star Wars lightsaber (used by Anakin and Luke Skywalker in Star Wars) is realistic (lifesize at approx. 1:1 scale), fun to build, and is strong enough to swing around for a few minutes without breaking! It’s also a neat display piece and looks/feels like an ultimate collector’s LEGO lightsaber set. It’s the perfect creative project and conversation-starter for you and your family/friends! If you like my replica LEGO lightsaber, please support my work and purchase a set of instructions. Thank you so much!

The model requires 597 LEGO pieces, not included, and it’s super easy to buy all the parts you need (if you don’t have them already); click here to download the parts lists if you’d like to shop the required pieces ahead of time. When you buy these instructions, you’ll receive my easy-to-follow guide on how to automatically create a shopping list for everything you need with the provided XML code. You can also watch a 10min tutorial here where I explain the process step-by-step: it’s quite simple and less expensive to do yourself than buying a kit.
* The cost of LEGO parts for this lightsaber model, when you order directly from BrickLink, is approximately $52 USD plus shipping. This is significantly cheaper than buying a similarly sized and prepackaged kit with all the pieces included: such a custom kit would likely be in the $125–200 range with the added labor, inventory, and other markups.

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.
