This is a video documenting Youtuber HeroTech’s effort to build a realistic lightsaber replica capable of extending and retracting with the push of a button (pervious iteration HERE), and fitting everything inside a Graflex 1:1 scale hilt. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. The blade even spins while extended to give it that realistic lightsaber flicker. I want one! The latest version is robust enough to withstand some light dueling, but he’s already planning to make it tough enough for hardercore dueling. That’s great news, because I taught Star Wars Kid everything he knows about wielding a saber. We swing for the fences.
