Hasbro has unveiled customizable lightsaber toys called Bladebuilders for its Star Wars line just before this year’s New York Toy Fair.

Bladebuilders’ interchangeable hilts, daggers and connectors will enable children of all ages to create their own lightsabers, according to USA Today.

“Star Wars is such a magical property and in particular the lightsaber is — and I think everyone would agree — the most iconic weapon of all time,” explained Hasbro’s senior Star Wars director Kim Boyd in a statement.

The Bladebuilder brand Jedi Master Lightsaber set comes with a $49.99 price tag and includes lights and electronic sounds, a pair of lightdaggers, an expansion hilt and a variety of connectors.

Other sets are titled after iconic Star Wars characters like Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader and work with each other to form a variety of shapes, colors and sizes. The other sets range from $9.99 to $19.99.
