ExhibitObi-Wan Kenobi Episode 4 Lightsaber (Roman Props MK1)
Character: Obi-Wan Kenobi
One of the most iconic lightsabers in the Star Wars universe, Obi-wan Kenobi’s lightsaber in Episode 4 is recognised by the familiar thin-neck, sink knob pommel, emitter, grenade, booster and heavily weathered hilt. The lightsaber was lost after his battle with Darth Vader on the Death Star.
This Exhibit is a Roman Props MK1 lightsaber hilt replica, widely regarded as the most accurate replica to date. It is installed by Jakku Junk Trader with a Rudy Pando metal crystal chassis with twin Kyber crystals programmed to operate separately.
