Puzzle Description:

A wrist strap for light sabers.

With the number of light sabers that get dropped in the three trilogy movies as well as the animated series' it is surprising that no Jedi ever came up with this. Sure you can reach out with the force to magic it back into you hand, but wouldn't it be better not to drop it in the first place?

Yaaasss! They need this. But practicality isn't as dramatic as wondering which one will call it to them first. We also wouldn't have had that tug-of-war between Rey and Kylo as they were fighting over a light saber in VIII. I really liked that fight; it added to their tension and chemistry.

But, yes, way more practical.

Hmm not sure. If you did drop it it might rotate round your wrist and slice your leg in half...

But if it flies off in a random direction, it could impale your comrade. You still have your leg, but your buddy is gone. Of course, if one has chosen to cling to the dark side, I suppose they'd rather keep their leg.

Neat puzzle. Just recently got to see all of the Star Wars movies in the order they were made. It was fascinating comparing the different trilogies to the overall story.

My son and I are 8/11 of the way through all of the movies in chronological order. Only the sequels left.

Cool concept with the safety accessory...I have one on my game controller! In 2019, my husband and I hosted a Star Wars viewing party every two weeks. We started in July and ended in November. Just in time for us all to go to the movies together to see the Rise of Skywalker. It was a lot of fun!! In doing my research to decide in which order too watch the 10 movies in, I realized that this is a somewhat controversial topic. We decided on this order because it wouldn't spoil the surprise plot twist for some of our newbies to Star Wars:

July 19th - Episode IV - A New Hope
August 2nd - Rogue One
August 16th - Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back
August 30th - Episode 1- The Phantom Menace
Sept. 13th - Episode 2 - The Attack of the Clones
Sept. 27th - Episode 3 - Revenge of the Sith
Oct. 11th - Solo
Oct. 25th - Episode 6 - Return of the Jedi
Nov. 8th - Episode 7 - Force Awakens
Nov. 22nd - Episode 8 - The Last Jedi

Smart. I saw a stand for a soldering iron, of course.
