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!

Built my first saber a couple of weeks ago. It was such a magical experience for me as a massive fan.

Built it with red and got the purple and green crystals.

Only gripe I have is that the two sleeve parts (between the removable bits for the crystals and the pommel and blade guard) a twist so easily when you hold it and feel loose.

I have used some washers between them and the pommel/blade guard and it has made a little difference but they still twist super easily

Overall I am really happy though (besides the above)

Went with the elemental nature and purple crystal!
