It's probably expecting too much to wish a keychain to transport you to another galaxy, but if any can pull it off, it's these sweet lightsaber chainmail keychains.
These handmade chainmail keychains are designed to look like the preferred weapons of a Jedi, a more civilized weapon found in another galaxy far, far away. The keychains are made by 'Links to the Past,' an online retailer that creates and sells unique bracelets and keychains. For these keychains, the colors of the chainmail are color coded to be recognizable as the lightsabers that are wielded by specific Jedi in the films, the most noticeable of which is Darth Maul's double-bladed lightsaber from Episode I. Links to the Past deals with more just another galaxy, as they sell products inspired by loads of nerdy pop culture, from My Little Pony to Portal.
