Hi guys, so as the title suggests I need some advice in relation to buying kyber crystals.

I have recently returned from Florida where naturally I’ve built my lightsaber and chosen a blue crystal(this being Luke skywalker).

My understanding is that the crystals used when building are series 1 crystals and I understand there are 26 of those to collect;

Blue
Old obi wan
Old Luke

Green
Yoday
Qui-gon

Purple
Mace windu

White
Ashoka
Chirrut imwe

Yellow
Maz Kanata
Jedi temple guard

Red
Sidious
Maul
Dooku
Vader

Black
Snoke

I’ve also seen a red Vader and green yoda “8-ball” but I’m unsure what this means.

So my question how can I go about go about collecting all of these for my series 2 holocron?

How do I know that a blue crystal is obi wan instead of Luke or that a red is Vader instead of maul?

And does the type of crystal I get make a difference? Like there are two obi wan crystals, do they do different things or is it literally just a different design and if that’s the case I can just buy one of each character?

I know the series 2 ones come with little information strips about who’s crystal it is so shouldn’t have much issue completing my collection of series 2s.

Does the series 1 count me with this as well?

I did see a photo online of various crystals which I have attached and I think it actually came from this Reddit some years ago.

That also confused me as to what everything meant on there
.
I understand (v1) means versions one
But I am unsure what the (c1) and (c2) means
As well as the RFID#

This past week, my family took our first trip together to Disney World in Florida. On our last day (October 8th) we went to Hollywood Studios. I had mentioned buying a lightsaber like Darth Vader’s, and at one point my wife says, “if you’re going to get one, you might as well go all out and do the whole experience.”

After she said that, we scheduled an appointment at Savi’s workshop. I ended up building the lightsaber pictured above, and I was going to get a blue kyber crystal, but I asked my wife and daughter what color I should get and they said green or purple. I ended up getting a green crystal during the building process.

At the end of our day at the park, it started pouring. I wanted to buy a blue crystal but couldn’t find where to go. Finally I ran into the right shop and picked a random blue crystal off of the selection wall that they have there. I didn’t really think anything of it.

On our way home, I remembered that there had been some special crystals or something like that in the past. I looked up what they were and saw that there was a “rare” (I’m not really sure how rare) blue crystal for Ben Solo that was light blue and had a red center. I also saw that as of October 5th, a few days before I build my lightsaber, there were new chassises being used for the builds at Savi’s Workshop that allow Ben’s crystal to change from blue to red and back. As soon as we got home and got everything unpacked, I opened the crystal and found that I somehow got the Ben Solo crystal.

I put it in the lightsaber and here’s what it does! I couldn’t find anybody posting it anywhere so I thought I’d share it!

Thinking about converting over my entire collection to Hidden Outpost Universal stands since they fit so well together space wise without looking cluttered!... and I can actually have more room to buy more sabers now too.... win-win. Lol

Hi all, looking for some help. The black battery pack is stuck and we can’t figure out how to get it out. It’s not turning or budging at all. My son has other lightsabers and we are familiar with how these packs turn counterclockwise and then come right out, but this particular one is totally stuck.

Read some other posts here and so far none of the methods are working.

This week for Scrapper Slicer Saturday, I've got another update to my Galactic Decoder app, which hit the iOS App Store earlier this week.

Easier Sharing

Last week I showed how you can use shortcuts to scan images, but this update makes it even easier to launch Galactic Decoder from photos, files, screenshots, etc. You can now send images to Galactic Decoder straight from the Share menu in other apps, with no shortcut install needed.

Layout updates

I've reworked the layouts across the app so things are easier to read, whether you're scanning live, working from a photo, or typing in the manual Decoder. The scanner view makes the most of the available space on your screen now. I've also done work to prep the app for the upcoming iPhone Duo, for those of you looking for a foldable scan device.

Feedback Tools

This is something that's actually been in the app since the first betas, but I wanted to share a reminder about it. When you scan an image, the app will give you the option to send feedback - can be as simple as a thumbs up or down to let me know how the scans are going for you. If it wasn't a good scan, you'll also have the option to send me the image you tried scanning, and a description of what went wrong. Sending the image or comments is 100% optional though, and you can even turn off the option to send feedback in the app settings if you like. There's also a way to send feedback from the settings menu, if you've seen bugs, have ideas for new features, clever limericks about jawas, etc.

Once again, thanks for the support, and have a great weekend!

Get Galactic Decoder in the Apple App Store here: https://apple.co/46X720i

p.s. If you've already downloaded the app, I'd really appreciate it if you left a rating or review in the App Store - it'd really help me out. Thanks!

Scrapper Saturday transmission coming in from Izzy’s Design Lab — where the workshop droids have spent the entire week “optimizing illumination protocols” and somehow managed to blind me twice. Standard procedure.

The headline this week:
The new color‑changing wall mounts are now live at the outpost.
They hold any solid color you choose, can cycle through colors on command, and come with a remote control so you can set the glow without climbing over your display wall like a Jawa looking for spare parts.

While the droids were tinkering, the rest of the shelves got stocked up too:

• Horizontal and vertical wall mounts (for sabers that refuse to sit still)
• Kyber crystal displays (because loose crystals rolling around is how you get unexpected explosions)
• Holocron display stands (keep your ancient secrets upright and presentable)
• Spira lanyards and keychains (for Batuu travelers who misplace their credits every five minutes)
• And the mighty Mythosaur Skull Wall Sconce, glowing like it just stepped out of the Great Forge. Colors fully customizable.

If your collection wall needs more glow, more organization, or more Mandalorian intimidation, the outpost doors are open: https://izzysdesignlab.etsy.com

May your sabers stay charged, your crystals stay stable, and your mounts glow exactly the way you tell them to — not the way the droids think they should.
