I was just about to post that.

Around 4,000 BBY, lightsaber crystals were used to indicate a Jedi's chosen class. Blue indicated a Jedi Guardian, a Jedi who used the Force on a more physical level. Green indicated a Jedi Consular, a Jedi who preferred to reflect on the mysteries of the Force and fight the dark side at its heart. Yellow indicated a Jedi Sentinel, a Jedi who honed their skills in a balance of combat and scholarly pursuits.

This distinction fell out of practice in later years when most Jedi used blue or green crystals from Ilum Caves based on personal choice, and when the use of crystals coming from various source worlds became marginal. Purple, yellow, and orange crystals were still used by some Jedi until the fall of the Jedi Order, but they were exceedingly rare, and often passed down through generations. During the Galactic Civil War, the Galactic Empire banned trade and possession of all lightsaber crystals. No longer having Ilum crystals at their disposal, Jedi of the New Jedi Order favored the use of various crystals and gems, creating lightsaber blades of multiple colors.

The synthetic crystals, favored by users of the dark side for their offensive properties, being impregnated with the negative energies of their creators which gave to the crystals their red color; the majority of the Sith and Dark Jedi wielded crimson-bladed lightsabers.

This thread reminded me of those custom crystals in Kotor where you could tweak your lightsaber powers and colors.

Not only are we dorks, but we are the 1%.

And we live in Calgary so our income is beyond calculation, I wouldn't be surprised if we were the first to own these prototype weapons.

My ForceFX Lightsaber collection just got lame.

It will never be like having one of these. Hello nostalgia.

I had always thought CC's lightsaber was more of a golf ball retriever type silvery colour.

Live and learn.

Ahhh.. I'd love to break some weak jedi minds then turn my double-bladed lightsaber on them. Damn you OP.. I want one dammit.

Purple/Violet like Mace Windu, for me.

Green is my second choice. The badass sabre of ROTJ.

Both in-between shades that neither represent good nor evil. (by OT mythology)
