| :Vader would probably recognize his mentors' lightsabers at first glance. Yes, it could be another unknown dead Jedi's saber, but it just as likely that Luke constructed one of his own, given he does not react in an obvious way to the suggestion. (Ignoring the Star Wars EU, which probably details exactly how Luke constructed the device.) Besides, we are shown Kenobi's, Yoda's and QG's lightsabers in the movies.[[Special:Contributions/103.22.201.239|103.22.201.239]] 11:39, 21 July 2014 (UTC) | | :Vader would probably recognize his mentors' lightsabers at first glance.

− | :: Why would we need to see him build it? He lost his in the previous film. And he now has a snazzy new green one, along with much improved skill. The obvious conclusion is he built it. Vader then sees it and confirms that this is a mark Luke has gotten stronger. There is no reason to doubt that he built it. And before the prequels and such, we wouldn't have imagined there were thousands lying around. Now everyone and anyone has a light saber even up to Luke's time. When the movie came out, it was never clear how many Jedi there ever were. But it seemed to have been a very small number.

− | :: I may be (mis)remembering something from the D6-based Star Wars tabletop RPG system (1980s, prior to this current D20 malarky), or something else "canon-derived-but-not-actually-canon" but ''personally'' creating one's own lightsabre is supposed to be something special. Obtaining/refining the crystals/whatever and tuning the device to work better with one's own Force Ability makes for a more harmonious relationship between Jedi/Apprentice Jedi and his or her weapon. Luke starts off 'raw' in the force (only with the innate and untrained ability) and with another individual's device (albeit his father's, which may count for something, the way these things work) but then like the various mythological instances of warrior-cum-blacksmiths (or blacksmith-cum-warriors) forging their own blade, something (even if only the Law of Narrativium) makes this self-made artefact singularly suitable for the fighting style of the creator/wielder. Or allows them to tune their still developing fighting style to the 'personality' of the weapon, if it is a two-way street.

− | :: Naturally, how far any of this can be extended towards the ''Fleshlight'' is very much arguable. Although if ''it'' is personally designed and built, to suit their own 'needs' then it's probably much better at the function it is intended to fulfil than an off-the-shelf or a (*shudder*) borrowed or ''hand-me-down'' one...

− | :Boy, we're plumbing the depths of Star Wars geekdom here, aren't we? :) I think one other thing you folks are overlooking is that Vader is ''smart'' and ''powerful''. He can see and deduce things that most other people can't, mostly due to his powerful connection to the Force. In the movie, I believe that when he says "I see you've constructed a new light saber", he's not only remarking on its visible newness, but he properly senses Luke's memory of having done so. This fits, given a number of other lines later in the movie where Vader remarks on Luke's feelings, especially in "betraying" Leia as his sister. So even more than when he sees the saber itself, Vader probably knew well ahead of time that Luke had built one, part of his "rite of passage" to become a Jedi. (Personally, all of this makes the fleshlight joke that much funnier, IMO. :)) [[User:KieferSkunk|KieferSkunk]] ([[User talk:KieferSkunk|talk]]) 16:02, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

− | :Besides the evidence that others have brought that Luke did in fact construct his own lightsaber, we know that Luke's new lightsaber cannot be Ben Kenobi's since his lightsaber is blue, while Luke's lightsaber is green. Yoda's lightsaber is also green, but he lost it in his duel with the Emperor and never seems to have recovered it, and it is additionally much shorter than Luke's. Qui-Gon Jinn's lightsaber presumably fell into the shaft in the Plasma Refinery Complex, and there is no indication that it was every found again. Besides, the hilts of the lightsabers are visually different, especially insofar as Luke's lightsaber has a prominent "switch." {{unsigned|IcarusProblem|03:32, 15 December 2023}}

− | Isn't ''which he apparently brought with him on the attack on the Forest Moon of Endor'' a pretty big assumption, given a white background? Seems more likely they're on Hoth (Or in his son's bedroom).[[Special:Contributions/108.162.216.86|108.162.216.86]]
