Rey Skywalker Graflex EP9 Duelling Lightsaber – RGB-X

The Rey Skywalker Graflex EP9 Lightsaber is a faithful replica of the reforged Skywalker saber as seen in Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker. Featuring the iconic Graflex design with modern modifications, the hilt retains the recognizable clamp and bubble strip while incorporating a leather-wrapped grip section to reflect Rey’s personal touch. The emitter and shroud maintain the vintage flashgun styling, giving this piece a seamless blend of old legacy and new craftsmanship.

Equipped with RGB-X electronics, this lightsaber offers an immersive duelling experience with a range of features. The baselit blade provides vibrant illumination with multiple colour options, though it is best suited for dark environments as its light comes solely from the emitter. Designed for heavy duelling, the durable construction ensures it can withstand intense combat. The saber includes 16 pre-installed sound fonts, smooth swing motion detection, flash-on-clash effects, and gesture-based controls. While already equipped with such great features, it also supports Bluetooth connectivity, allowing users to access settings more easily and upload extra sound fonts via the “XenoConfigurator” app on iOS and Android.

History

The Graflex hilt was originally built and used by Anakin Skywalker during the Clone Wars and passed down to his son, Luke Skywalker. It became an heirloom of the Jedi Order, playing a role in defining moments across the saga—most notably in Luke’s confrontation with Vader and later when it called out to Rey in The Force Awakens. Though broken during her struggle with Kylo Ren, Rey chose to repair the saber, honoring the legacy it carried.

In The Rise of Skywalker, Rey reforged the Graflex lightsaber using salvaged parts and added her own leather wrap to the grip, symbolizing her growth and newfound clarity. This hybrid design reflected her acceptance of the Jedi path and her spiritual connection to the Skywalker name. The saber became an emblem of Rey’s transformation—from a scavenger to the future of the Jedi Order—and a final tribute to the family that shaped the galaxy’s destiny.
