I started sketching and came up with a silhouette I really liked, but the practicality of holstering\/sheathing it nagged at me until I had the idea that the cross-guard didn\u2019t have to be stationary. Perhaps it could activate or deactivate with the saber. So after some more sketches and some back and forth with Lucasfilm, it was decided that the cross-guard would activate as opposed to always being open, which would give the saber the slimmer silhouette while holstered and would lend itself to some great visuals when activating.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The global pandemic pushed back the release of <em>The Star Wars: High Republic<\/em> content.
