I love Star Wars as much as the next person. I love lightsabers as much as the next person. So I’m more than happy to share this sweet lightsaber I built in the video game Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. The game came out earlier this year, and I only just now got around to playing (it was on sale!).

Check this baby out! I’ve been told it looks like a fancy fountain pen, and I’d have to agree.

For me, Jedi: Survivor was just a lightsaber parts collection game. I enjoy these games well enough, but I don’t really care about the characters, I don’t particularly like Cal Kestis and the story was only so-so. But in the first game, and more so in this sequel, there was a huge emphasis on collecting the parts and then crafting your own lightsaber. And I live for that stuff!

I still have fond memories of my family’s last trip to Disneyworld some 10-15 years ago, and walking into some random toy store and finding a build-your-own lightsaber kiddie table. I went straight to work and still have that baby on display in my apartment. And I long to make the pilgrimage to Galaxy’s Edge to participate in that more professional and more realistic build-your-own lightsaber attraction. I won’t be able to recreate this beauty, because it doesn’t have all of the pieces that the game has, but I’ll still have something.

For now, I’ll just be pleased with this beauty I built in Jedi: Survivor. It would probably have a purple blade in a perfect world.
