Welcome to Blue's Armory where I break down Star Wars costuming for beginners as I go on the journey myself. Mistakes will be made
my thoughts on the Acolyte
I've been trying to stay away from the discourse around this show for a while but I wanted to say a bunch of stuff and not get into an argument on Instagram about it so I've decided to just dump my thoughts on here.

Blue's Armory is a channel built around my love for costuming and Star Wars I've been making Star Wars costumes for years and finally started to share my love with everyone else. I am by far not the best crafter in the world but I'm hoping through my mistakes people can learn new skills and what not to do on their journey through this hobby!

Custom Lightsabers from TEMU
Просмотров 379Месяц назад
A while back when I made my first TEMU lightsaber video I asked if people would like to see me customise it and I got enough answers that said yes for me to actually try it. So here's the video of me creating a custom lightsaber from the TEMU junk ones. This was super fun to do and I'd love to try and do this again with another budget lightsaber but maybe upgrade the internals who knows. Follow...
Creating a Galactic Denizen
Просмотров 49Месяц назад
The galactic denizen idea has been around for a while now but since the introduction of Batuu at Galaxy's Edge people have been creating more and more galactic denizens which is awesome What is a Galactic Denizen? Good Question. Basically it's creating your own character that lives in the Star Wars universe, you can be a trader, a pilot, a smuggler or anything you can imagine. I'm having a load...
My BUDGET Imperial Officer Costume
Просмотров 139Месяц назад
What's cooler than the uniform of the Imperial Officer, I'd argue not much so whilst my TIE Pilot costume is on the backburner I've decided to put together an Imperial Officer costume for a cheap as I possibly can and get it approved by the 501st. It's so nice to have a comfortable costume, hopefully in a week or two we'll be able to do an update of the costume and see where we're at. Follow me...

Budget Lightsabers From TEMU?
Просмотров 15 тыс.2 месяца назад
Whilst browsing TEMU for other items I stumbled across the fact that they sell really really budget lightsabers, so because I'm an idiot and spend money on silly things I decided to buy two of the lightsabers and see what they were like. You know. For Science My wonderful shirt is from @onlyhopesupply - go check them out some of the best Star Wars shirts around. If you'd like to see some more l...

Introduction & Starting my 501st Journey
the fourth lightsaber has been updated its on shien and from what i've heard from friends the sound is better now my two in one set arrives tomorrow so i guess i'lll see if the sound is changed otherwise i'll just take out the speaker i just need the light part for my fan film
OOOO let me know how it goes
@@bluesarmory took a scissor to the speaker wires sound was the same but i did put in better blades from the saber workshop they look real good
What printer u got
it's the Elegoo Neptune 4 Pro
Nice work bro turned from Palawan to grand master
And where is it in England or something
No it's actually in Dubai
YO I LOVE UR VIDS
Thank you!
Being knock off store why don’t they steal disneys design they have the best blade design
@@wargodsix there are certainly some of the Disney sabers you can get but not for this cheap
We need to name the mandalorian! This suit is honestly great, I would love to make one like yours but I don't have the time and skills right now. Just Subscribed!
@@bulletgrievous thank you I believe I do have a name for this Mando but I’ve completely forgotten
Looks great! This video is super helpful. Thank you!
@@nolanjongsma8776 thanks very much!
First
Were did you get that shirt I want one so bad
@@angelasumrell2822 it’s from Only Hope Supply they produce some incredible shirts
are you interested in the adult film industry? it would be an honour to have a legend like you on the team.
@@tomiyoung3233 um what
hahaha dumbass lol ;)
Top it off with a German accent and a abusive Bacon Boss XD
I do not understand this at all
Thanks for the mention and the kind words!
@@VanOaksProps anytime absolutely love your channel!
Just get one from crimson dawn or the pachshop they're cheaper when it come to neopixle I have two
i'll have to have a look
I think it’s cool your making various amounts of costumes keep it up !, when I was 12 I really wanted to have a tie pilot costume and I made one that was, something you could say, then I bought a armor kit that’s 501st approved along with boots belt and compad, the tie pilot is such a versatile costume to make I’m glad I have mine even though I only use it in the winter, it’s still cool to have a 501st approvable costume, hope yours goes well !
I just can't help myself with putting together multiple costumes! Yeah I don't think my TIE will end up being 501st but once it's done I'll look at getting a 501st one done, where's your kit from?
Looking good so far
@@Steoorer thanks!
This is why I like being a welder/fabricator/HGV mechanic with a lot of downtime. I need not expensive lightsabers, I collect scrap and make my own 😂
That is super cool I'd love to have a go at making my own
@@bluesarmory they make a good project, I actually learned how to do pipe welding by making them, I haven't managed anything exceptionally fancy in terms of electronics, just the sort of thing you could stick a broom pole in and whack each other with so far, did get told off over the PA at work once for fighting along the edge of an inspection pit, was fun 😂
Thank you for the insight! I have so much anxiety about joining such a group full of amazing kits but this encourages me to get my kit done and become involved. I felt very discouraged by how difficult it can be to get everything right when on a tight budget but now that I have more wiggle room in my budget I think I can find the courage to get going on this. Cheers from Missouri, USA
@@akaviral5476 I would say reach out to your local clan, I also was so anxious about doing it worried about what kickbacks I would get but everyone’s been so nice and friendly and it’s put me at ease
Yer do a project. Would watch that. Could you put the electronics into a better hilt? Galaxys edge is fab. I didn't build my own saber as it was hard to justify the price to my other half! Ha.
I've thought about getting some electronics and making my own hilt as a project that might be fun. Also i got very lucky in that my lightsaber building experience was a gift from my other half!
Started the project recently and the video is up
I was mid comment when you were bashing the first one but when I heard that swing noise I had to write this instead.
the swing noise is awful
Your 131st sub remember me when your famous wink wink...
always!
I garbage at weathering so please feel free to to do that with those saber.
@@traveling47 I’ll give it a go
My weathering sabers video is up now
I used to lurk on the formums for years but never got my kit put together. I'm glad to hear your exoerience has been good. I need to get involved again. It's a great comunity.
@@traveling47 honestly it really has been great can’t say enough about how helpful the community is
I won’t lie I did almost click off when you said you like rey
@@MokurohGaming I do like Rey, do I think she was the best written character across the films, no. But as a character I do like her and the impact she’s had on kids and getting them into Star Wars
To be fair it is good to have a female protagonist buttt. I feel like Star Wars is getting a little more… girly. (Too many of this in nowaday Star Wars)
@@Dragonballuca Episodes 1-6, Andor, Mandalorian, Book of Boba Fett, Solo are all male dominated pieces of content, Star Wars is for everyone so if there’s some more female led content I see that as a good thing
Nice Spins, I really love to spin swords. (I have a Video on my Channel, whit Spins, you can watch it if you want and comment what do you think about my spins) 😀
I hate how thick galaxy's edge lightsaber are!!!!!!!! They juuuuuust suuuuck
@@jaap1989 I mean they are a bit thick but it depends on the saber
@@bluesarmory those ahsokas you showed they look thiiiiiiiiiick af jajaja
@@jaap1989 they’re really not that bad
@@bluesarmory but not accurate as so many other replicas out there
@@jaap1989 no I agree with that but I made this point in another comment is they're not meant to be super accurate (and expensive) sabers they're meant to be accessible sabers for everyone
I originally got two gold sabers from temu which could be double bladed. They were ok but my issue was that the color never stuck meaning I had to manually change it every time I used it. Eventually they both died and I got a replica of Luke’s lightsaber from Saber Custom. It’s amazing and has so many color and sound options.
yeah I don't think the Temu lightsabers are meant for longevity to be honest
I love your kit bro
@@headshotteam1 thanks so much! I’m really happy with how it turned out
I would like to point you towards padawan outpost they are great
Yeah a few people have mentioned them I will certainly check them out
I live pretty pretty close to WDW so i go to galaxys edge pretty offten which means my lightsaber collection is always growing. I know with what ive spent on my entire collection i couldve bought 2 or so really high end neopixel sabers but i have a preference for official merch and about 90% the time my sabers just sit on display stands. They disney/hasbro sabers are at a good enough quality that id take the quantity over quality of a neopixel
@@jadenmessner219 that’s a really good point I think they’re great for display I wish I lived close to WDW currently a 16 hour flight for me
I can see you got the lightsaber from galaxy’s edge. It’s so thick 😂
@@The_Kaide yeah the Savis lightsabers are quite thick but I love it
Great video man
@@geragojuul6020 thanks very much!
how do u only have 65 subs, im subbing man!
@@NorthA9 thank you! Well I’m just getting started
Dude I took my three kids to galaxys edge lightsaber workshop. Are lightsabers broke soon after buying and “experience” was lame. We got ripped off. Crying? lol you need more fun in your life.
@@otis0024 Star Wars means a lot to me so yes I was emotional doing it and there’s nothing wrong with that I found it extremely fun - it’s okay for people to enjoy things you may not
underrated
thank you!
I've watched a few you tube videos of people buying lightsabers off of Temu and Aliexpress for super cheap, but that's not me. Anyway, there's an online ship called The Custom Saber Shop (based in U.S.), that sells all sorts of parts for people wanting to build their own lightsabers. I've purchased parts to alter some of my existing hilts to make them my own way. You may have a shop like that you can alter your lightsabers or even get the parts to build your own.
Note: I usually purchase from Ultimate Works/The Pach Store - who do a close to movie accurate series of lightsabers.
Temu is a chinese sweatshop.
I'll subscribe to take those temu sabers off your hands
mmmm you drive a hard bargain
@@bluesarmory You make cool videos!! I can't wait to get a lightsaber someday
@@ZukoRenken thanks very much, hey there’s some really affordable options out there if all you want is a saber for fun
@@bluesarmory thank you do you have any tips for a saber video? I bought a Kylo Wren saber with my brother and I want to video it like you! Can you watch it when I put it on?
@@ZukoRenken Just have fun with it and of course send it across once ready
I wish I had a cool lightsaber
@@ZukoRenken sooooon
great video!
Thank you!
@@bluesarmory you are welcome!
@@bluesarmory I also subbed to you.
saberspro does it better.
i'll be sure to check them out
I got rgbx laselit lightsaber fron artsabers, for like $60, and it is sick!
@@LordDarthVader2004 will have to check them out as well!
@@bluesarmory with code SABER15 you will get 15% discount
Yes I want to see you customise the sabers
awesome I'll get started on that
You can check out that video on my channel now!
I'm interested in where you got the mini trooper helmets from.
I actually make the mini trooper helmets myself
Great video! I’m adding this to my playlist of favorite videos from fellow creators 😊
Awwh thank you so much
I have 2 lightsabers from Temu. The skinny grey one(with windows in the emitter)6:22. As well as another with a black hilt, smooth swing, and 4 sound fonts. The sound fonts include Luke Epi5, Obi-wan Epi3, Kylo Ren Epi8, and Ahsoka's white sabers from Rebels. I recommend getting the second one it's $27 to $30.
wow that sounds like a really good deal to get smooth swing in something so cheap I'll have to keep a look out for that
@@bluesarmory one thing to note is the smooth swing isn't top of the line.
NSabers and Galaxy sabers have some great budget lightsabers which are MILES better than anything on Temu, Alie express or Amazon. Padawan outpost is another great UK based saber seller
some great suggestions I've had a look through Padwan Outpost before but i'll have to check out the others, thanks!
@@bluesarmory you are most welcome! Nsabers customer service is great abd the have fast deilvery
I ordered mine from the latter and it STILL hasn't arrived.... EDIT: IT ARRIVED AS I WROTE THIS.
@@UTU1O how long did it take?
@@bluesarmory 16 days.
On Aliexpress I bought a short "pixel" lightsaber that actually had a LED strip inside of the blade. It was around $25 so I had a lot of doubts that it was a "pixel" blade but it surprised me. Now I'm pretty sure its not exactly a neopixel, but it sure does 80% of the job for a fourth of the price of a budget neopixel. The sound was exactly like the sabers featured here and it came in either a grey silver or a black color. If you want a cheap LED saber, try and find that one. Cons are that the soundboard is shit and the blade is pretty short (which may be a pro, to each their own) Edit: It's a 21 inch blade last time I measured it
@@adamalarcon4973 sounds like maybe 1 step up from the ones I bought but I’ll keep and eye out for those, there are some deals to be had on these websites - if you get out The “Frugal Jedi” on RUclips he’s got some reviews of actual neopixel sabers from TEMU/Aliexpress that are actually legit for around 120 dollars
A 21 inch blade is more of a lightmachete than a lightsaber
@@mh2120 I like the idea of a light machete
Those to are junk. You get what you pay for. Can still get cheaper light sabers then the hasbro fx and disney ones that have more features, not all are junk on Temu or aliexpress, but yes have to watch what you buy
@@dennisrogers6786 yeah they are but I do think if you were buying them for kids to go whack around in the garden then they’re perfect I would have loved these as a kid
The disney and hasbro light sabers are junk, old tech compared to many of the cheaper ones from Aliexpress, etc, and come with sound fonts, colour changing and even some with an SD card, bluthooth or even programmable sound boards, as well as pixel blades, etc and many of these features are on the cheap lightsabers and run rings around the disney ones anyday
@@dennisrogers6786 I wouldn’t say the Disney sabers are junk especially as display pieces which are what mine are they look great. My Savis workshop saber will be my favorite saber always purely because of the experience and memories
@@bluesarmory While sure you get some memories buying them their effects and designs just cannot compare to third party lightsabers, not to mention the Disney lightsabers are RIDICULOUSLY overpriced.
@@finitoackermann yeah I agree that they’re expensive but all lightsabers are if I wanted to get the same Ashoka set from somewhere like Saber Theory you’re looking at like 600+ dollars and I paid 200 ish from the parks the ST ones are gonna be miles better but also it’s a 400 dollar difference so I’d expect that - the Disney Sabers do exactly what they need to do
Can you name some of the good ones I want to buy some
@@ajaaronlego from Disney or TEMU?
