    You probably can't use it as a battle prop, if you notice in the clip showing "Rey" on the cruise ship, she drops to the ground and swaps sabers before starting her fight with "Kylo" I guess she didnt want to break the prototype she has or it can't be used in mock battles

      It's just more shills shilling for shillperor Kennedy. Disney is a joke that's beating the dead decaying Star Wars horse with their retractable stick saber. They took Kylo's "Let the past die. Kill it if you have to" line a little too seriously. BUT, just like Icarus flying too close to the sun under up with him falling to his death, so too will Disney die on their "truth". And I hope I'll still be alive when that happens!

      @@FindingTheForce No, it's just wrong. As in, Padmé, Finn, and now these people are completely wrong. The top button is a blade length adjustment button and they should have known this while showing these things. The original visual dictionary even shows a cutaway and explanation for the different parts of this very lightsaber, and the top button is clearly marked as being a blade length adjuster. Regardless of it now counting as legends or canon it matched with what had been seen on-screen up until that time, which would make it the most accurate going forward too and these people just going "IT BIG RED BUTTON IT DO THINGS" rather than researching it. I will excuse Lanny in this, due to his being a prototype and it being hard to do more with what you have, but the movies and the show had no excuse.

    It's not "average sized or small." Compared to every other sabers in production or that has ever been produced, it's huge. The length is just a little larger, but the diameter is gigantic. Have actually seen one, held it, and ignited it. Its about the size of a Red Bull can and even bigger at the T track grips. It's also not sturdy. The first thing anyone wants to do when you hold a light saber is swing it. And that is exactly what "John Doe" told me not to do. When you move it around, you can see it give way a little. If you actually were to swing it, he confirmed that it will collapse. It is basically a stand still pose prop that they have considered using on actual "Rey" and "Luke" props in their parks. Other than that, it has and will have no uses. If you want to feel like a Jedi or Sith (yes they also have a working Vader) wielding your lightsaber, this will not be your saber. That's another reason they haven't released it. There will be no market for it.

    9:00, I'm pretty sure that the Starcruiser lightsabers are completely passive. The emitter on the wall has a camera that tracks the blade and actually even corrects its aim to hit the blade so you feel like you can predict where it's shooting. I think Jenny Nicholson mentioned it directly in her video but it's also pretty visible in some others. This would work with any lightsaber as long as it's the right color and bright enough for the tracking system to distinguish it from the background.

And you cant swing the hacksmith one quickly at all or the "blade" will get blown in the wind.

    It never fails to amaze me how much energy and research people keep investing into bringing that admittedly fascinating, but still a bit silly concept of a force field sword to life. The desire to create realistic lightsabers has probably spawned more progress in light forming technology than LCD screens and LED car headlights, to name just one discipline.

    The lightsaber this video first shows looks like the retractable part is made from the pipe cleaning material plumbers use to line pipes, this obviously is a way smaller version and cosmetically covered with some sort of color to make it not look like a plumbers tool

    This could be used for a level of practical effects in Star Wars content on television and in films.
    The cost of adding this in post is a big part of what has led to increases in cost of making films.

    Okay so I'm not going to lie, while it's definitely a cool idea, I too am way more interested in that extra bright lightsaber he was working on, with the glow actually like, hovering around the outside of the blade? How'd he do that, that's incredible? Obviously there he was showing white and not a color that would wrap around the outside of the white blade, but still if he can make that work and look straight out of the movies, whether on camera or even somehow in real life? That's incredible. Again though, the retractable one is a cool idea, I think as it is right now it's way too bulky, and I like to fight with these lightsabers because it's fun. I feel like I probably can't fight with a tube that is just essentially 2 measuring tapes. But we'll see whenever they become commercially available.

    If you've ever played with a measuring tape where you've put the tip of the tape back in where the tape comes out. I can see how that technology could work.

    Rewatch ANH, Luke doesn't push the red button to activate the lightsaber like Finn did in TFA. He pressed the bubble strip in the clamp section to turn it on. Just watch the scene where he first activates it.
