# Sci-Fi Tri-Blade Toys The SaberForge LED RELIC V2 Crossguard Lightsaber is Ideal for Padawans By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2015-11-12 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crossguard-lightsaber References: [thegadgetflow](http://thegadgetflow.com/portfolio/relic-v2-cross-guard-led-light-saber-by-saberforge/) & [fancy.to](http://fancy.to/114qxr) There was a mix of controversy and excitement when the new Crossguard Lightsaber was teased in the original teaser trailer for [Star Wars: The Force Awakens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-collection-2), and now fans alike are sure to unite in joyous praise for the SaberForge LED RELIC V2 Crossguard Lightsaber. It might look like a child's toy and, while it is quite toy-like, the SaberForge LED RELIC V2 Crossguard Lightsaber costs a whopping $400, so it might not be suitable for destructive kids. Featuring three LED blades, the SaberForge LED RELIC V2 Crossguard Lightsaber is inspired by [Kylo Ren's weapon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brickbuilt-star-wars-logo) from the new film and is completely rechargeable. Ideal for Padawan learners or those who wish they were in [Jedi training](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grogu), the SaberForge LED RELIC V2 Crossguard Lightsaber is a must for fans. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.3/10 - Popularity: 40% | Activity: 52% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/toys) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **LED Crossguard Lightsabers:** Opportunity for manufacturers to create innovative and realistic LED Crossguard Lightsabers for Star Wars fans. - **Rechargeable Toy Weapons:** Opportunity for toy companies to develop rechargeable toy weapons that enhance imaginative play for children. - **Sci-fi Collectibles:** Opportunity for retailers to capitalize on the growing demand for sci-fi collectibles, such as the SaberForge LED RELIC V2 Crossguard Lightsaber. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Toy Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in toy manufacturing to meet the demand for high-quality and interactive sci-fi toys. - **Battery Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in battery technology to create highly efficient and long-lasting batteries for rechargeable toy weapons. - **E-commerce Retail:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in e-commerce retail to cater to the growing market of collectors and enthusiasts looking for sci-fi collectibles. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Motion-Activated Sci-Fi Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hasbro-2.md) - [Sci Fi-Inspired Desk Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightsaber-lego.md) - [Pink-Inspired Saber Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pink-soldier-saber.md) - [Sci-Fi Foam Dart Blasters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ee3-blaster.md) - [Laser Sword Hard Drives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seagate-lightsaber-collection-firecuda-ssd.md) - [Subtly Sci-Fi Watch Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-x-citizen-rebel-starfighter-boxed-set.md) - [Replica Sci-Fi Toy Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/playmobil-star-trek-klingon-bird-of-prey.md) - [Sophisticated Sci-Fi Toy Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-ultimate-collectors-series-atat.md) - [Movie-Inspired Digi-Pets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-tamagotchi.md)
