| I've got 5 of the
in trans-purple.
3 of them appear lighter hue.
I see there is price guide info and a picture for the trans-light purple, but
it doesn't look like that color ever came in a set
Is there documentation that this part varies in this color?

Yes, this part comes in two different colors of transparent purple. One of them
is Trans-Purple and the other is Trans-Light Purple. The Trans-Light Purple one
was only used as the lightsaber blade for Mace Windu in
You can read the Additional Notes for the set on that page to understand why
it is not connected to the set through the catalog. (I strongly believe that
the light-up figures should have inventories.)

Okay, I have another development.
I also have a trans-purple 3L bar that should be more definite since there are
no "trans-light purple" for that color in the catalog.
So, it appears that for the 4L bar...
The 3 that I have that are "lighter" perfectly match the color of the 3L bar.
Meaning I have 2 that are darker.
I tried to take a picture, but the camera and lighting make them look "trans-dark
blue", but they are not as I have one of those in the pic as well. (trust me,
the pic makes them look much closer than in person, the two in question are def
purple)
Picture Key:
Blue Mark: "Trans-Dark Blue"
Red Mark: "Trans-Purple" - match the 3L trans-purple
Green Mark: "Trans-Purple" - but darker than the other ones.
I might see if I can get a better pic.
My current fringe theory is that the two that are different came from a newer
set possibly.
Thanks Randy! Seems like you're often chiming in in my color questions. I
appreciate you sharing all you knowledge with me!

Those are just variations of Trans-Purple like there are slight variations for
almost all colors. Trans-Light Purple is very obvious:

The lightsaber blade was the only System part ever made in that color. Besides
that, it was a Clikits exclusive.
