I never understood why Dooku's lightsaber is curved.

Where did you get them and how much did they cost?

Seriously,I want them.Badly.

I got them from my local collector's item store. But the store I went did not have another lightsaber - Luke Skywalker's. Lo and behold, I found it on e-bay for US$25 (excluding s&h). I bought it and it has yet to arrive at my doorstep.

If you're interested, check it out here (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=154&item=7954076605&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW). When I placed my order several days ago, they had 39 left. Now, they only have 27 left, so hurry up!

I shall find them all,keep them in my attic,and sell them to fanboys lining up for Return Of the Sith for £100!Each!

I am so smart!

They're called "Master Replica .45". They're so called because they are exactly 45% the size of the real deal. Each comes with an officially sealed Certificate of Authenticity. They're the exact replica of the props used in the movies, right down to every minutest detail.

some guys just have it curved, that's the way it is

and Mace Windu's light saber looks unwieldy and uncomfortable

I agree with you on your assessment of Windu's saber. In fact, of the five, I think the most comfortable to handle would probably be Dooku's.

sometimes that happens when you put to much pressure on them while you're, um.... using them.

it's actually due to the way you tuck it in your trousers

it's based on an Arabian rapier... supposed to give it an "old school" feel to it since Dooku is an old school kind of guy.

do they make these models for ashari ventress?

her light sabres i think have the best design

Force FX sabers are the best! Die-cast full scale master replicas! But they cost heckuvalot!! If your dad owns a reality show and goes "You're fired!" every week, then go for the Force FX. Money well spent, I tell ya.

Danger Mouse

02-21-2005, 07:00 PM

Oh, yes. I quite agree with you. Unfortunately, they don't make sabers for none mainstream characters. Otherwise, I'd hunt for every last saber there ever was from Ventress to Fisto!

Heck, they don't even make .45 scale replica of Yoda's lightsaber. :(

CConn

02-21-2005, 07:01 PM

At least they're not as costly as the direct replicas...those are unbelievably expensive...

Danger Mouse

02-21-2005, 07:05 PM

You geek.

Um, where'd you get them again?

Seriously, I was thinking about getting them. I have the full scale vader lightsaber. I felt it was overkill with the amount of stuff I had, but maybe for my office.

Then it is you I should be envying. No amount of .45 replicas can ever equal the immense coolness of owning a full scale one. Over here where I'm at, a full scale Force FX lightsaber is about US$200!!

Erzengel

02-21-2005, 08:19 PM

I got an fx one off ebay for like $75 with shipping.

The replica vader one I got for christmas.

hers are indeed special. i hope she'll be in the film...

don't tell me if she's not gonna make it, i don't wanna be spoiled

Kind of like his performance in the movies. goddamn I just couldn't help it.

Edit: Also forgot to uncapitalize the "g". Almost let that one slip.

I'm want 3 of the scaled replicas. Han, Fett and Stormtrooper Guns/Rifles.

why are some of them in gold and others not?

they seriously need to make a Quinlan Vos one, he's like the baddest jedi ever...

The gold ones are special limited edition ones.

The only ones that really matter are Obi-Wan's, Luke's, and Vader's.
The rest are just part of the "extended universe" as far as I'm concerned. ;)

And doesn't this belong in the "Products" forum, Mr. Danger Mod? :D

Equint77

09-13-2006, 10:37 AM

there was really only one lightsaber I wanted... and that was the Luke Skywalker one from EPIV... the one Obi Wan gave him. :(

but i think they've been out of stock on that one for years. :(

Awesome collection DM..... keeping it on that display makes it look really classy. :)

Thank you, kind sir.

You're welcome to try. ;)

Those are JUST TOO COOL. Congrats, DM!
Thank you. :) But that post you quoted and the pictures therein are from a year ago. My collection has expanded considerably since then.

Danger mouse! great collection. I would assume you loved the PT then?
Let's just put it this way: I don't hate them. :)

Noice dude.
Damn, those are some sweeeet lightsabres you got there dude.
Thanks, guys. They're my pride and joy, right after my daughter. :)

For the miniature scaled ones, only Han's and Stormtrooper's are being made. And you can still order them from www.masterreplicas.com.

why are some of them in gold and others not?

they seriously need to make a Quinlan Vos one, he's like the baddest jedi ever...
What erz said.

Quinlan Vos' is the exact replica of Qui-Gon Jinn's. He made it exactly like that of his former Master's out of respect and admiration. But, yeah, it would be cool. Perhaps in time, I guess.

And doesn't this belong in the "Products" forum, Mr. Danger Mod?
I'm sorry. My bad. Could you provide the link to the appropriate forum, please? :)

I have that. You may still acquire it from a third party. But be prepared to sell your first-born for it. ;)

And thank you.
