The Combat Lightsaber – Model IG88 is an IG-88-themed combat hilt inspired by the infamous assassin droid — a cold, industrial tribute reworked as a duelling saber. IG-88 never wields a lightsaber on screen, so this is a themed design rather than a screen replica.
Only charge with a 5v 1amp max charger
A modular duelling hilt
Built on our VHC (Variable Hilt Component) system, the IG88 is a slim 28cm hilt with a smooth grip — every section swaps out with other VHC parts. A perfect saber for duelling and spinning, in Base Lit or Xenopixel.

FAQ
Does IG-88 use a lightsaber in Star Wars? No — IG-88 is an assassin droid and never wields a saber on screen. This is an IG-88-themed hilt, not a screen replica.
Can I make it double-ended? Yes — add a standard coupler and it joins into a double-ended saber. Browse double-bladed lightsabers for the idea.
Does it come with a sound font? Yes — it comes preloaded with an IG-88-themed sound font.
Can I change the blade colour? Yes — the colour isn't locked to the character. Pick any blade colour and effects you like (even another character's look): Base Lit sets the colour on the hilt, and Xenopixel uses the Xenopixel configurator app.
