Hey, I'm new to the site and am currently looking to purchase a saber with the Adaptive Saber Parts. I have always loved the blue blades but I'm really not sure which one to pick, the video that SF put up didn't exactly help because cameras aren't great at catching the most accurate representation. I love the blue of Luke's saber in Empire Strikes Back, does anyone know which blue would match that the closest?

I think medium blue or deep blue might be it. Empire's blue is rather darker than A New Hope's blue.

I would say that medium blue would be your best bet for ESB. Deep blue would be closer to ROTS.

If the ESB would be a medium blue would that make ANH a light or arctic blue?

Arctic blue seems about right. But opinions vary. It's a very light shade of blue.

I have another question, this one pertaining to the difference between arctic and light blue. I figured this would be an ok place to put it rather than start a new thread.

Is the light blue any brighter than the arctic blue, assuming both were the 12W models. In the SF color video I noticed much more of a blue glow on Phil with the light blue saber than the arctic blue and I wasn't sure if that was because the color was brighter or if because it was a darker blue it was more visible on camera.

I apologize if I seem like that annoying new guy, this is my first saber and I just want to make sure I get this thing perfect.
