For years Star Wars fans have talked about, or even attempted to build a working Holocron. Sadly there has never been a functioning Holocron available to buy anywhere… until now. Almost 2 years of work has finally yielded the Genesis Custom Sabers Data Holocron. This is a CNC machined work of art. The anodized aluminum parts are precisely machined to securely hold the acrylic crystal pyramid. This pyramid functions as a prism, refracting light in interesting ways. Depending on your viewing angle you can see into the heart of the Holocron mechanism. The Holocron was designed to be a showpiece that would feel right at home in even the most exclusive collection. As if that wasn’t enough, this is a FUNCTIONING Data Holocron. The aluminum base below the crystal is home to a 16GB flash drive with a standard USB connection. In the stories (thanks Drew Karpyshyn) the ancient Jedi or Sith learned the art of storing vast amounts of knowledge in the crystal Holocron. Now you can too. Essentially, you can load 16 GB of anything from your computer, into the Holocron. Then access it from any other computer or gaming system. Best of all, when the USB connection is active, the heart of the Holocron glows red, as if coming to life!

Hi Rob,
I received my weathered holocron in the mail yesterday and I have to tell you that it took about 20 minutes to pick my jaw up off of the floor! The word stunning comes to mind. Every detail about this holocron from the weathering to the glowing glyph inside has been beautifully executed and I couldn’t be happier about owning one of these! Thank you very much for making this wonderful piece of functional art a reality!

Hey Rob,
I just wanted to let you know that the holocron arrived today and it surpassed all my expectations, the details with the glyphs and the way the prisma reflects the holocron in itself it way to amazing to describe it with words Shocked
Thanks for making this piece of the Star Wars universe reality.
Best wishes
Vincent
First of all, I just want to say how helpful and great Rob has been with this.
I’ve made my own holocrons in the past and bought others, but this one in my opinion tops them all in the originality of the prop. It’s super dense and weighty, which are nice qualities to have in a prop, everything was perfectly assembled and the attention to detail was incredibly impressive.
Every piece was perfectly made and there were no imperfections in any part whatsoever. Mine sits on my desk glowing eerily. The fact it also works as a USB drive is icing on the cake.
