wow have none of you read the star wars new guide to weapons and tecnology? when light sabers are built the owner picks what color of crystal they use. blue and green are the most common but....(hang on getting the book......ok here we go)before the battle of Ruusan, jedi ignited saber of every hue, purple, orange, and even gold! but after the emporer came to power, he razed or quarantined numerous llum crystal rich planets, thus resulting in relying on the common blue and green. After the rebellion, Luke Skywalker and the new jedi order reclaimed those planets and allowed us to used awesome colors in Jedi academy. as for mace windu's saber, He braved the rock covered natives of Hurikane (yeah i know it sounds stupid) to collect crystals to make a rare violet color. oh and the sith dont have red blades, its blood red............. thats all i got, enjoy

well if you put it like that it makes no sense because luke had a synthetic lightsaber in the 6th SW movie, and he was not a sith.

i don't see why lightsaber colour has to be restricted to your side,
i would chose blue because i like the colour but that doesn't instantly mean im on the light side, its the same as red, i don't see why i couldn't be a jedi with a red ighsaber.

Jello's post was in 2003....he doesnt check these threads...

Come on now, every Generation X boy wanted to be Luke Skywalker. Is it because he was a whiney farm boy from some backwater hack planet? No, it's because he was a FREAKING JEDI. He could block lasers with his lightsaber. He could levitate droids & rocks & crap with his mind. Come on, he choked two pig dudes with just a simple gesture. He cut off Darth Vader's hand and kicked him down a flight of stairs. He got his @$$ zapped by lightning from the geezer Emperor, stood up and said "s'at all you got b!tc#??"

Red, because of the duality that it symbolizes. It symbolizes love, warmth, anger, passion, and blood, which itself is a dual symbol of both life and death.

If you look closely in the Geonosis battle there are maybe 2 or 3 shots where it looks like a jedi has a yellow saber, althought it might just be the green against the sand.

oh yes, Red colour is used by dark, because of the crystal. its a 'fake' crystal, manufactured. the jedi use 'real' ones (natural). Thats why the dark side always has deep red crystals.

green, blue and purple are the standard jedi colours. yellow and orange are dark and light side colours. Red is dark side only.

im sure originally, it was just green and blue, but Samuel L Jackson (Mace Windu) likes purple alot, so he wanted a purple saber.
