A reader recently pointed out this problem with strip #462. In fact, I was aware that Luke used a green lightsabre at that point in the movies, but, as explained above, the LEGO Group don't make their lightsabre blades in green. The closest is a colour they call "Transparent Neon Green", but that looks very yellowish, and not at all like the colour of Luke's blade in Return of the Jedi

So I was inspired to make this strip, with some help from another reader for the initial idea of editing the image more and more.

The hard part was choosing which movie to "transmute" the scene into for the last panel. I considered some modern science fiction like Serenity or Aliens, and even something like Lord of the Rings, but in the end I decided to opt for a timeless classic.

Jimmy Stewart is one of my favourite actors, and Rear Window one of my all-time favourite movies. If you didn't recognise the scene, well, you've missed a fine movie.
