From the Designer
Hi, I’m Megan, one of the designers here at Light My Bricks—and a massive Star Wars™ fan. When the LEGO® Star Wars Helmet Collection was released, I knew Kylo Ren’s would be one I’d love to light up. The design already captures his dark and imposing presence, but with the right lighting, it transforms into something truly cinematic—just like a prop straight out of the galaxy far, far away.
Lighting Inspiration
Kylo Ren is a character defined by duality—torn between the dark side of the Sith and the light of the Jedi. I wanted the lighting design to reflect that inner conflict while giving the helmet a striking, display-ready presence.
To achieve this, I combined cool white and red lighting elements. On the outside, Astro Large Cool White Spotlights shine dramatically upward across the helmet, bringing out every curve, angle, and scar in sharp detail. This cold light symbolizes the influence of the Jedi—a faint but ever-present pull toward the light.
Inside the helmet, however, the glow is unmistakably Sith. Three Red Astro Lights are mounted within, radiating outward through the mask. The effect is bold and ominous, capturing the fiery energy of Kylo Ren’s rage and his connection to the dark side.
Together, the interplay of cool white and deep red creates a display that feels alive, echoing Kylo Ren’s struggle between two destinies.
Feature Highlights
Sith Glow from Within
The most impactful element of this design is the internal red lighting. By placing three Astro Red Lights inside the helmet, the dark interior suddenly bursts with ominous energy. The glow seeps through the mask, turning an already impressive LEGO® model into a menacing display piece.
This inner glow contrasts beautifully with the stark cool white spotlights from below, creating a balance of light and dark—an unmistakable visual metaphor for Kylo Ren himself.
