I'm wondering about which Ultra Sabers are wielded by which Jedi/Sith in the medias. Some are obvious to laymen like me (Graflex=Skywalker, Chosen One=Vader, etc.). It seems the ones that are higher priced are ones that are based on sabers that characters wield but I can't recognize most. Is there a list of this sort somewhere, and if not could we compile one here? The closest I've gotten is a Facebook ad that only had about 10 sabers and their wielders. Thanks for any help that could be provided!

MOST hilts are replicas or based on a certain character's saber, but there is no list.

I think the reason for that is two fold.  First of all, US doesn't really do "replicas" (though some specimens are pretty accurate).  It's more "based on" hilts, so to say "This is so and so's saber", wouldn't be exactly correct.

Second would be licencing.  For exact replicas, or to use a character name, royalties would have to be paid to the mouse.  Not very conducive to keeping prices low. Tongue

I'm not opposed to said list, but it may need approval from the owner.  If somebody wants to compile a list...lol

Generally folks just ask about a specific hilt, if they don't know. Smiley

There is no risk of infringement by making prop copies extrapolated from 2 dimensional images, only if the original prop design specifications were used or copies produced exactly from an authentic prop original.
The use of trademarked terms or names can be though. That's why these models are Ultrasabers  not lightsabers. It is safe to say they are inspired by characters  but not that it is that character's.  We all know they are inspired but Star Wars Lightsabers but that there is no connection to Star Wars or Lucasfilm or even Disney.

I think I've seen a list before but it included some from games or books I wasn't familiar with. I know most of the ones that have been in films or TV.
