Rise of the First Order

Choosing within the era.

Which characters carry the most choice

Rey's lineup runs deepest here: the Graflex she inherited as a Skywalker saber, her own Rey Skywalker hilt, an SE of that same hilt, and Dark Rey's double-bladed version. Kylo Ren follows close behind with his crossguard hilt, offered in a weathered finish as well as an SE, and Ben Solo's own hilt and its SE give a third option in this part of the story.

The hilt shapes this era gave the catalogue

This era handed the catalogue some of its most distinctive shapes: Kylo Ren's crossguard, with its side vents either side of the emitter, Dark Rey's double-bladed hilt, and the plain, battered Graflex form passed down from Luke to Rey. Rey's own hilt sits apart from all of them, built along different lines entirely and worth comparing side by side with the rest before deciding which shape suits the shelf or the hand.

Display or duel

Every hilt in this line comes as a Neopixel build, with the blade lit along its full length for display pieces and light duelling alike, built on an SNV4 PRO, Proffie 2.2 or Xenopixel V3 core depending on the hilt. Most are also offered as a baselit build on S-RGB or RGB-X, the choice for anyone planning contact duelling rather than a shelf piece, and the Saber Core guide below breaks down which core fits which.
