The Brick Fan
“The set has 278 pieces it should be available at the beginning of May when the Star Wars Day event starts on the LEGO Shop. It features the return of the lightsaber hilt builds that LEGO has done before and the Darksaber has had many owners including Pre Vizsla, Darth Maul,... More Sabine, Wren, Bo-Katan Kryze, Moff Gideon, and Din Djarin.”

Brick Fanatics
“The final model may feel disproportionately large in comparison to what we’ve seen on screen and to the previous LEGO lightsabers we have built, but it does actually appear to be in scale – the Darksaber hilt is slightly longer and can be held with both hands.”
Full review at www.brickfanatics.com
Brickset
“Created by Tarre Vizsla a millennium before the events of the Star Wars films, the Darksaber is a lightsaber like no other. This recreation of the weapon is therefore constructed very differently to others in the series, hence its considerably higher piece count. Moreover,... More its angular shape is accurate to the onscreen hilt, with rounded sides to match the live-action design.”
