My Lightsaber Collection (2022)

My Lightsaber Collection (2022) | Anakin and His Angel

George Lucas' decision to include swords in a science fiction film helped make Star Wars a smash hit. -The Lightsaber Collection

Lightsabers. They are one of my favorite elements of Star Wars! My first introduction to Star Wars was the scene in A New Hope when Obi-Wan hands Luke Skywalker his father's lightsaber. It was a moment I'll never forget as I was completely mesmerized.

Today's update is way overdue as I have not shared my lightsaber collection since September 2020. My husband Jason and I have purchased several hilts since then and I'm excited to share them with you all today! Oh, and if blog posts aren't your thing, feel free to head on over to my Instagram to check out a new video showcasing my collection!

I originally only displayed the lightsabers in our hallway using Clear Lightsaber Wall Mount Holders & Blade Clips (which I talk about more below). But since our collection has grown significantly, I've added a few of them to our living room as well.

Using the Clear Lightsaber Wall Mount Holders & Blade Clips are truly my favorite way to display our lightsabers. It's a really clean look. It's as if the lightsabers are floating on the wall!

The mounts to display your lightsabers vertically are available in quanities of 1 - 5 with the prices ranging from $7.99 - $25.99. They are packaged well and come with all of the hardware needed to install them as well as instructions.

If you want to display your lightsabers horizontally like some of ours (as seen above), I recommened these mounts. They are made by the same company and are just as reliable! These only come in packs of 2 for $8.99. To display Count Dooku's curved hilt, we used 3 mounts for extra security. It has never budged!

My absolute favorite hilts are included in this photo - Dark Rey, Kylo Ren, and Rey (Black Series).

Dark Rey is my newest lightsaber which Jason gifted to me this year for my 36th birthday. It was designed by KR Sabers, and weathered by Multiverse Props (there is also an unweathered option available). It is INSANELY amazing and yes, it does open up (check out this video to see it in action). Even though I have not yet had the internals installed, it is absolutely my favorite lightsaber that I own to date. I can't wait to get it working! Look for a review of this beauty soon!

While I do still like the first Rey lightsaber that I purchased from Disney, I do prefer the new Rey Black Series lightsaber by Hasbro. I love that they got the color of the hilt and the ignition switch right (it works the way as seen in The Rise of Skywalker). The blade is also much brighter! You can see my full review of this lightsaber here.

Kylo Ren's lightsaber was my number one favorite until I got Dark Rey's lightsaber. I've been a fan of this hilt since I first saw it in The Force Awakens. I think it's just an incredible design! I love the weight of the hilt and the crackling sounds with flickering blades.

I remember the day after The Rise of Skywalker debuted in theaters, Disney released Ben Solo's lightsaber and I went to purchase it immediately! It's cool to see the similarities between both of his hilts.

I made the huge mistake of never picking up Ahsoka's Rebels hilts but I do love her hilts from The Clone Wars as well. The design is so simplistic and they're incredibly light! I also appreciate that you can switch the colors on them from blue to green. It's a great feature!

Count Dooku's hilt is so hefty, majestic, and peculiar to look at! I was so excited after purchasing it that I styled a Count Dooku look, white wig and all, which you can see here. I would jump on this one before it's discontinued!

Darth Maul's lightsaber will alwas be iconic which is why we have it displayed above our main window in our living room. Wielding it is both intimidating and empowering! One would think that these would be available to purchase only as a set, like Ahsoka Tano's, but the hilts are actually sold seperately for $159.99 each.

While I don't think that the quality of the Savi's lightsabers are as good as the Legacy lightsabers, they're still really fun and the experience of building my own lightsaber is something I'll never forget! Plus, these are the only lightsabers that allow you to change the kyber crystal color! For those wondering, I chose Power & Control and Jason chose Peace & Justice.

I believe that the original Skywalker lightsaber was one of our first hilts that we purchased. We also got lucky and were able to get the beautiful boxed set that included the Reforged Skywalker lightsaber and Leia's lightsaber. I have to say, that was a very special moment when we unboxed it! We actually went live to do the unboxing which you can watch here.

Because Disney's version of Leia's lightsaber is on the orange side, I did end up pre-ordering the Leia Black Series lightsaber because the color is more screen accurate. It looks to be a true rose gold which makes me happy!

Luke Skywalker was Jason's first personal Legacy lightsaber purchase which makes sense since Luke is his favorite character. It's definitely one of the lightest hilts in our collection.

As I stated above, we replaced a super old FX Darth Vader lightsaber (which didn't have a removable blade) with the Legacy version. It was a necessary upgrade and I'm super happy with it. Darth Vader is my favorite character so this was a must-purchase for me!

No lightsaber collection is complete without Obi-Wan's hilt. We picked this one up just before it started becoming hard to find. It was suspected to be on the discontinued list last October and I think it's safe to say that it has been. I have not seen it in a while!

I somehow forgot to take an updated photo of Mace Windu's hilt against the grey background like the rest of these but I think this shot will suffice because it's just so pretty! It's honestly a lovely hilt that has so much shine. Both Jason and I are huge fans of the gold.
