I'm currently re-reading 'Heir to the Empire,' and it never describes the color of Leia's lightsaber blade. Does anyone know what it is supposed to b? Blue or green? Slimy!
Mauve. Actually, I don't thing it mentions the color in HTTE, but IIRC *spoiler if you haven't read The Corellian Trilogy* she gets a red lightsaber in one of the later books (I think it's that trilogy, but I'm not entirely sure). Not much help, I know... I also think she makes her own later, etc. I think she must have four or five by now.
For some reason, i always thought of Leia's blade -- during Heir to the Empire and TTT at least -- was yellow. I don't know if that's ever actually said anywhere in TTT or if it's just from my own imagination, but that was always my assumption for whatever reason.
I'm sure i read somewhere that her first lightsaber was built for her by Luke, and that it was also green, not sure though. She definitely had a pinkish red saber around the time of SbS though if the cover is anything to go by.
Leia has had about a bazillion and one lightsabers, most involved in continuity errors. Generally, though, they're either blue or red/scarlet/crimson. According to the TTT comics, Leia's saber of that era is blue.
^ Nope he orginal lightsaber, before the Swarm war books. Imean they Never Show Jainas Light saber a Purple...But it is. In Tempest they got a Pretty Good Turquise color for Tenel Ks LS which is how it is descrobed.
She had a red one that she got in DE, then I believe she had Anakin's in one book (I'm thinking BFC, but I'm not sure). She had her own blue one by the NJO, which was broken by Saba, then she made a brand new blue one.
According to the TTT comics, Leia's saber of that era is blue. Yeah, but so was Luke's, and we all know his was green. The TTT coics misdrew (is that a word) multiple things, including Thrawn's art collection. It's described as being totally different in the book as it was in the comic. That's why I didn't depend on the comic book for my answer to the color of Leia's lightsaber. Slimy!
Leia's 'saber is blue in HttE, green in DFR, and blue again in TLC. Luke's is blue in the first and green in the following two. So... yeah.
