I will also note if we tend to get new kyber crystals over time I would like for Disney to give us a Darth Jar Jar Binks as he is being shown in the upcoming lego star wars rebuild the galaxy other then that I would like to see crystals even from past video games such as Star Killer as a example or even a Wookie Jedi
until Savi's Workshop lightsaber get updated with a new chassis that supports the color I don't think we will see orange anytime soon ... if we did would love to have Baylon Skull as a crystal
@@SirJamesIGamerfuzion you can reprogram the crystals to orange already! I haven’t seen the blade color but I know they chassis lights register orange when a crystal is programed to a specific code
@@Roninsconquest I think the first set had codes for orange and cyan, but the issue was the blades/boards themselves not supporting the color combinations. There was a handful of custom blades out there that had the orange and cyan color schemes to use. Not sure if they actually detected the crystals though or were just set via a custom board in the blade. Hopefully though when they eventually make a new chassis and update the blades it will still work with the first and second set of parts we have lol
@@Vanom. yes they did! But the orange color was very close to the red so there wasn’t much of a difference same with the cyan but having baylin skoll and shin haiti in holo crons would be cool!
For now the old holocrons are being sold at the Downtown Disney Outpost. I hope they don’t repackage the old Kyber crystals in the new canisters. If people collected the original crystals, then buy the new ones, it would be frustrating to get duplicates of the old ones. Thank you for a great video. I’m looking forward to you reviewing all of the new ones.
I have a V1 Sith, missed out on the V1 Jedi. I'm going to be Darth Tyranus for Los Angeles Comic Con and this video just helped convince my better half that we need to get both V2 Holocrons and a few Kyber Crystals before we go. Thanks for that.
The Holocron Luke lines come from comics. Two of the lines were from the Rise of Kylo Ren comic, a great series. The other lines are from a miniseries that came out in the lead up to the Force Awakens, I can't remember the name.
At Batuu East, they had all the older Kyber Crystals in a small bin by the registers and all we had on the wall were the new holocrons and crystals. I, too, hope they eventually release an orange kyber!
I have his crystal and was so excited but they’re very short and generic lines. “May the force be with you” and “you’re free to test that theory” or something similar.
I went to Galaxy’s Edge a year and a half ago and got both holocrons, a protection and defense lightsaber (before the refresh) and a full set of Kyber Crystals. I guess I’ll have to make another trip and get these new holocrons, crystals and wayfinder.
What's cool is that not only did the black kyber crystal get updated, but we also get 2 brand new chase variant kyber crystals: Kylo Ren (the 2nd chase variant of the red crystal) and Ben Solo (the 1st ever chase variant of the blue crystal), they're both "cracked" kyber crystals
I have yet to get the two Jedi Holocrons to work together. I don't know which sides go together. Which side is the bottom? I assumed it was the same side that the bottom of the drawer.
The new holocrons are very interesting and I am surprised that they added new characters to the Kyber Crystals. The High Republic jedi was most surprised they added. Thank you for this review and it does give me an interest of the new holocrons
I assume your are holding the sides the whole time which is not what you are suppose to do because holding the sides on the new ones will cause them to go into sync mode
I’m not a fan of the voice acting with the new stuff. At least with the old ones they used a lot of voice lines from the movies with the original actors. Or the voice acting had really good impersonations like with Count Dooku. The impersonations this time around aren’t as good. Especially the Darth Vader and Luke ones.
Ok I came here because I couldn't get my Jedi ones to sync and can't really tell which way you had them I figured it's speaker up for 2 and door away for 1 I couldn't tell which way you had them
Out of curiosity, since there are chase crystals are the canisters opaque enough to block the flashlight trick or does the paper inside them block the light from coming through?
I bought the wayfinder because I was told by a cast member that the wayfinder allows you to know how to get the black but im not hearing or seeing any info on that. Does anyone know about this? Or was i lied to
wayfinder DOES NOT help you find the black crystal the only thing it does is when you scan your crystals the wayfinder will chart a course to a planet and provide up to 4 dialogue of information about the location
@SirJamesIGamerfuzion yeah ok that's what I thought too. Don't know why that lady said that The sith wayfinder was still worth it though. For 1.0 I'm only missing the chirrut white crystal, Maul, and palatine for red, and the black. And then in 2.0 im missing all the reds, plo koon, luminara, and the cracked blue and black are the only ones im missing. I have the chase red. Which was awesome cause I only bought one of each color on my recent trip and got it first try.
Is there any one who might be able to give me the PRECISE dimensions of the display character info cards that come with the new Kybers? I'm trying to make my own. Thank you!
Idk if there was a floock with my holocrons or what but when I put a v1 Jedi holocron with a v2 Sith holocron it just played the Bendu voice lines again. Again could be something wrong with one of my holocrons though.
@@SirJamesIGamerfuzion Dang, I'm really interested in how that one works. If it would go in the Jedi one or the sith one. It's purple so Jedi but it's grievous so I'm not really too sure y'know
That’s stupid because Mark Hamill lends his voice to so much stuff. They must’ve just not wanted to pay him. They should just use AI. They probably would’ve gotten a better voice.
Excellent , comprehensive video James. For me a pass. Too much to invest in basically a variant. The new voice acting is horrible so thats a negative. . I usually dont get to bothered about that but this is really noticeable. But if ya got the $ go for it. And if you never got the originals these will do fine
I will also note if we tend to get new kyber crystals over time I would like for Disney to give us a Darth Jar Jar Binks as he is being shown in the upcoming lego star wars rebuild the galaxy other then that I would like to see crystals even from past video games such as Star Killer as a example or even a Wookie Jedi
Are you going to do a full collection video?
I hope they add orange kyber crystals soon!

They got Vader breathing in and exhaling while talking...impressive...most impressive
So does a new hope!
I'm looking forward to seeing you upload a video where you showcase the audio for all of the new kyber crystals in the new holocrons.

I actually got two of these new kyber crystals last night at downtown Disney. I can’t wait to test these out in my lightsaber when I get home
At Batuu East, they had all the older Kyber Crystals in a small bin by the registers and all we had on the wall were the new holocrons and crystals. I, too, hope they eventually release an orange kyber!
Was hoping to hear Plo Koon, his voice is so awesome.
I have his crystal and was so excited but they’re very short and generic lines. “May the force be with you” and “you’re free to test that theory” or something similar.
@@yoselinf1269 is it at least the original clone wars voice?
Honestly shocked they didnt go all out and make Cyan, Pink and Orange crystals and new blades while they were at it

I pulled both the new black crystal and the blue Ben Solo crystal on a sealed set of 10 (5 each red and blue) that I bought on eBay
I have yet to get the two Jedi Holocrons to work together. I don't know which sides go together. Which side is the bottom? I assumed it was the same side that the bottom of the drawer.
I enjoyed the review. Thanks Sir James!
The new holocrons are very interesting and I am surprised that they added new characters to the Kyber Crystals. The High Republic jedi was most surprised they added. Thank you for this review and it does give me an interest of the new holocrons
I have two Ben-Solo. I’m missing the other Chase. I would trade!
if you have an old Ben Kenobi Chrystal, does it sound like cal kestus in in the new holocron?
Question for you does your series 2 holocron start the message and then cut off and turn red
I assume your are holding the sides the whole time which is not what you are suppose to do because holding the sides on the new ones will cause them to go into sync mode
@@SirJamesIGamerfuzion what is sync mode
Yes I am holding the sides whole hearing the message
@@franciscoviramontes3271 your not suppose to keep holding it once the audio goes let go
@@franciscoviramontes3271 i show it in the video
Thanks for the review!
Shame that there was no update for savi sabers again
I’m not a fan of the voice acting with the new stuff. At least with the old ones they used a lot of voice lines from the movies with the original actors. Or the voice acting had really good impersonations like with Count Dooku. The impersonations this time around aren’t as good. Especially the Darth Vader and Luke ones.
I thought it was Mark Hamil. It sounds like him from the mid 90s to me.
How much are these new kyber crystals Sir James?
I talked to an employee about the old crystals and they said that they're being used for the saber builds
Is there still a chance of getting the black obsidian chrystal in the red ones?
Yes the new voice
Do they still sell the original kyber crystals and Jedi and sith Holocrons?
I got lucky and got a kylo ren one, didn’t even know it was rare until I got home. Not sure what I will end up doing with it yet.
I passed on buying these on May 4th so I'm glad you're doing a review
Ok I came here because I couldn't get my Jedi ones to sync and can't really tell which way you had them I figured it's speaker up for 2 and door away for 1 I couldn't tell which way you had them
Do you think the flashlight trick will work on the new cases?
Out of curiosity, since there are chase crystals are the canisters opaque enough to block the flashlight trick or does the paper inside them block the light from coming through?
Are these the same crystals you need to get for the savis lightsabers?
Is there a list of all the new kyber crystals and variants for each color?
I couldn’t quite see- it was the white crystal that made the Wayfinder talk about Batuu right? I wanna pick that up!
Yes one of the characters as shown from the 2 new white crystals is from Batuu
I bought the wayfinder because I was told by a cast member that the wayfinder allows you to know how to get the black but im not hearing or seeing any info on that. Does anyone know about this? Or was i lied to
wayfinder DOES NOT help you find the black crystal the only thing it does is when you scan your crystals the wayfinder will chart a course to a planet and provide up to 4 dialogue of information about the location
@SirJamesIGamerfuzion yeah ok that's what I thought too. Don't know why that lady said that
The sith wayfinder was still worth it though. For 1.0 I'm only missing the chirrut white crystal, Maul, and palatine for red, and the black. And then in 2.0 im missing all the reds, plo koon, luminara, and the cracked blue and black are the only ones im missing. I have the chase red. Which was awesome cause I only bought one of each color on my recent trip and got it first try.
Anyone else thought of 35mm film when seeing the new kyber canisters?
Can you publish a list of the new characters and their crystal colors
Great video SirJames!
By any chance did you get to test out the "8-Ball" Vader and and Yoda crystals to see how they work with the new Holocrons?
they work the same way as they did with the old holocrons as the new ones are backward compatible
Those are pretty cool.
I wish you could get Revan from the purple crystals
Would there be Orange, teal, Pink and Indigo as well?
Nope
Anyone know all the new characters? Ik there’s two high republic characters, Luke,Kylo, Csl, grevious,Rey and Bane but I also saw plo koon as one
They need a really rare Evan rarer than the black crystal the lava saber
Mine keep changing colors mid sentence and the speaking gets cut off
are you holding the sides for more then 5 seconds because that is what triggers that
@@SirJamesIGamerfuzion ahh, yes I was thanks!
I just got a blue ben solo one, would be willing to sell as i wanted kenobi
Is the Kylo Ren chase visually different than the regular red crystals? Like is it cracked?
Add a Darth Revan crystal and goodbye to money worries
Is there any one who might be able to give me the PRECISE dimensions of the display character info cards that come with the new Kybers? I'm trying to make my own. Thank you!
Can you still buy the old kyber crystals and old holocrons ?
I went over it in the video
Can we get a review on the Marrok saber please? 🙏🏻
there will be not to worry
@@SirJamesIGamerfuzionAWESOME!!
Just wanted to say thanks for e video and is there a new 8ball Darth Vader ?
Nope
I wonder what happens when you combine a series one Jedi Holocron with a series two Sith Holocron.
Idk if there was a floock with my holocrons or what but when I put a v1 Jedi holocron with a v2 Sith holocron it just played the Bendu voice lines again. Again could be something wrong with one of my holocrons though.
Sirjames when will Kylo Ren's lightsaber be unpocked from the Ultimate Work
Just found out about the grievous one
yep :) I just got that one in today from a trade along with the new luke kyber - would of shown off grievous today had the mail not get delayed
@@SirJamesIGamerfuzion Dang, I'm really interested in how that one works. If it would go in the Jedi one or the sith one. It's purple so Jedi but it's grievous so I'm not really too sure y'know
@@deadlocked56 it will be the jedi holocron only to get his voice
One thing you didn't mention that I need to know: What is the price of the new Kyber crystals?
Same price as the old crystals so still under $20 above $15 I don’t recall the exact number top of my head
The Luke and Vader I think are their video game actors
been awhile since i heard video game luke as for vader he is perfectly fine in my opinion
But….. is Vader breathing while he’s talking?
its old luke voice not young luke.
You could do a rest on old the Jedi holocron to make it a sith one! Then both Jedi holocrons will make the sister lol
True lol
