Her lightsaber is elegant and functional — S-RGB starting at just $195, up to Proffie V2.2.

Which Version Should You Get?
S-RGB ($195-$214) — The budget Jedi Council saber. Heavy dueling, hollow blade, LED in the hilt. At this price, it’s one of the most affordable character replicas in the entire TXQ catalog. Perfect for sparring or as a first lightsaber.
SNV4 Pro ($280-$314) — The sweet spot. Neopixel scrolling ignition, Bluetooth app, 25+ fonts. At under $315 max, this is excellent value for a Neopixel character replica.
Proffie V2.2 ($360-$370) — Full customization at a reasonable price. Program both blades, custom ignition animations, Arduino IDE.
Who Is This For?
Get the Depa saber if:
- You want a Jedi Council member’s lightsaber without the premium price. Windu and Yoda cost more. Depa gives you Council-level character cred at entry-level pricing.
- You’re a Kanan Jarrus or Rebels fan. Depa was Kanan’s master. Her death — gunned down by her own clone troopers — is the moment that forced 12-year-old Caleb Dume into hiding. The Soresu form she taught him became his trademark. The Grand Inquisitor later identified Kanan by recognizing Depa’s influence in his fighting style. Owning Depa’s saber is owning the first chapter of Kanan’s story.
Skip this saber if:
- You want a character everyone recognizes. Depa is a deep cut. If you want the saber that gets “I know who that is!” at conventions, go Vader or Luke.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What color is Depa Billaba’s lightsaber?
A: Blue in current canon (The Bad Batch, reference books). Earlier sources (the 2015 Kanan comic) showed green. The official retcon settled on blue. Like all Xpecialify sabers, the blade color is switchable on every electronics tier — set it to whatever matches your preferred canon.
Q2: Who trained Depa Billaba?
A: Mace Windu. He rescued her from space pirates as a child and trained her as his Padawan. She became one of the few Jedi besides Windu to master Vaapad (Form VII), though she preferred the defensive Soresu (Form III) in combat. That defensive style later became her signature — and the Grand Inquisitor identified Kanan as her student by recognizing her Soresu influence in his fighting.
Q3: What happened to her during Order 66?
A: Her own clone battalion turned on her and her Padawan Caleb Dume (later Kanan Jarrus). She fought fiercely — deflecting shots, cutting down clones, Force-pushing — but was outnumbered. She ordered Caleb to run. He escaped. She was shot in the back by Commander Grey and died covering his retreat. Her final act of sacrifice is the reason Kanan Jarrus survived to become a Jedi.
Q4: Which version should I get?
A: SNV4 Pro for the best value — Neopixel at $280-$314. S-RGB for budget dueling under $200. Proffie for customization under $370.
Q5: Can I duel with this?
A: S-RGB handles heavy contact. SNV4 Pro and Proffie are light to medium sparring only.
