Skywalker Legacy Lightsaber: here are Luke and Leia's lightsabers

Skywalker Legacy Lightsaber

Presented the collectible lightsabers Skywalker Legacy Lightsaber, official replicas of the lightsabers of Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, on sale at Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, inside the two US Disney parks.



Only yesterday, on the occasion of Star Wars Day, we talked about the official announcement of the incredible "real" lightsaber capable of retracting its luminous blade inside its handle. Today we return to talk about other lightsabers by presenting the official replicas of Luke and Leia.



The swords of the Skywalker Legacy Lightsaber set will faithfully reproduce the models of the props used in Star Wars : the Rise of Skywalker. The two models will be enriched by sound and light effects and it will be possible to exhibit them with or without a blade (this one sold separately), as is already the case for some similar models thanks to the attachment on the upper part of the handle.

The Skywalker Legacy Lightsabers will be contained in a decorated collector's box, which will present inscriptions in the Aurebesh language (the characteristic alphabet used to transcribe the galactic common language) and on which the symbol of the Rebel Alliance will dominate.

Inside the box there will be the necessary space to house the two lightsabers, duly wrapped in a cloth similar to that used by Rei in the finale of the Rise of Skywalker and a commemorative plaque placed inside the lid. >
The box will also be enriched by another magical detail: every time the box is opened a sensor will start "The Princess Appears" (listen to it here), Known as the theme of the Force, by John Williams.

The Skywalker Legacy Lightsaber set will be a limited edition of only 3,000 pieces available for $ 375 each. In case you are looking for replicas of lightsabers, you can take a look at Hasbro's Force FX by clicking here. The Legacy series of collectible replicas has so far seen the hilt models of the lightsabers of Darth Maul and Rey to which were also added those of Cal Kestis, Ahsoka Tano and Count Dooku.






Disney Skywalker Legacy Limited Edition Lightsaber Set Launches for Star Wars Day

skywalker-legacy-lightsaber-set

Disney's plans for Star Wars Day 2021 included the release of a gorgeous 3000-piece limited edition Skywalker Legacy lightsaber set that includes a Leia Organa hilt and the reforged Skywalker lightsaber from Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge / The Rise of Skywalker packed inside a special display case. It launched for $375, and fans rushed to shopDisney to grab it.


At the time of writing, the shopDisney site was in waiting room status, so the lightsaber set and the other Star Wars gear that they launched for the Star Wars Day 2021 is probably selling out fast. If the lightsaber set does sell out, you can find them here on eBay if you're willing to pay the huge markup. From the official description:


'This set includes two highly detailed lightsaber hilts: the Reforged Skywalker Legacy hilt and Leia Organa's Legacy hilt. These elegant weapons of a more civilized age come direct from Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at Walt Disney World and Disneyland. Each activates sound effects and illuminates in blue when you attach one of our Lightsaber Blades, sold separately. Hilts come in a decorative box, which plays ''The Force'' theme when opened.'

Speaking of lightsaber replicas, Hasbro finally delivered a high-end, Black Series Force FX Elite Lightsaber based on the Darksaber featured in Star Wars: The Mandalorian back in December, and it was a huge hit. That's why it's sold out at pretty much every retailer at the moment. However, you can still pre-order one here at Entertainment Earth for the standard $249.99 with free shipping. You won't be charged until it ships, which should be at some point in August. They also have pre-orders up for the Black Series Electronic Mandalorian helmet, which arrives in June for $119.99.


The Star Wars: The Black Series Force FX Elite Darksaber is based on the weapon featured in the Disney+ Star Wars: The Mandalorian series, and it is touted as 'the most realistic Force FX Lightsaber yet'. Features include power-up, power-down, and motion sensor-controlled idle hum and battle clash effects inspired by The Mandalorian series. It also features progressive ignition, a molten tip effect, light-up hilt, and the first-ever white LED blade edge in the Force FX Elite Lightsaber series.
