We upgrade our favorite Star Wars sixth-scale figures with custom light-up lightsabers using off the shelf CCFL fluorescent tubes. Follow along as we show you the step-by-step process to modifying a CCFL tube and sixth-scale lightsaber hilt to turn a typical Hot Toys or Sideshow Collectibles figure into a brilliant light-up scene. It really transforms the look of a figure!
