But original protagonist Luke Skywalker remains one of the top favorites to this day.

If you want to be one of them, below we’ve picked out the best costume and lightsaber to help you create a DIY Luke Skywalker Halloween costume for this year.
Costume
Luke went through many different styles and outfits during his time in the franchise, but the most iconic look is from his introduction in the original trilogy’s first film, A New Hope. While living on Tatooine with his aunt and uncle, Luke wears a light linen tunic and pants set. It’s the first look Luke wears and one that fans will instantly recognize.

Lightsaber
According to Vox, the green lightsaber both Luke Skywalker and Yoda use is for those who use “peace through force, when necessary.” The article also mentions that the lightsaber was initially blue but was made green in post-production to make it visible on screen. This one comes from the Star Wars shop on Amazon, so you know it’s the real deal.
