How do you display/group your lightsabers (by movie, character, etc.)?

[Hecubus114]

I’m going to be designing some new stands for my lightsabers, as I have been able to re-acquire a large number that I had to liquidate years ago. But am having some trouble deciding the “order” they should go in. They are going to be 4 tiered stands to go inside Detolf cases (except for the Maul saber... still brainstorming on how to work that in).

Thought I’d see if anyone else’s system inspires me in any way. What do you guys go by? Character? Movie? Order of appearance? Good/bad?

My collection of sabers is pretty small because I've never been a fan of the prequel sabers and decided for my own sanity (and wallet) that I would only collect one movie's version of the OT sabers. So I just have ANH Obi, Luke, and Vader, then I have a ROTJ Hero and a V2 (just because I think they're clearly different as opposed to like ESB and ANH GRAFLEXes which are basically the same thing but just have a little bit different appointments). If I had more I would probably sort by movie.

In my display I have two two tier stands. On the right I have Obi and Luke ANH, on the left I have Vader and the ROTJ Hero, and then I have the V2 in the middle. I did them like that so it would be master and apprentice together, father and son together, and then the V2 is in the middle since it was the real world stunt for Obi Wan and the in story ROTJ Luke saber.

For my long neck lightsabers I created my own plexiglass stand using two clear picture holders from the dollar store.

I have mine in a case and I line it up in order of appearance. I only have four so it's an easy set up: Luke ANH, Obi ANH, Vader ESB, and my RotJ V2.

Me too, just focus on OT. Didn’t wanted several variations of the same saber for each movie so just got ANH Obi, ESB Luke, ESB Vader and ROTJ Luke.

Apologies for shocking picture!
I went for film order from top to bottom, just seemed the most natural way of doing it.

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on one of these racks. How did you affix it to the back of the bookcase?
