Masterfully done!

Everyone else with an Obi - EP 1 can consider themselves officially trumped!

It was off to the machinists!  Or so I thought.  It turns out that with all the parts I had in the design, and the limited numbers of sabers I wanted to machine, the price was astronomical.  So the project got shelved for a while, until I found an incredible member of this board who is a master machinist.  Erik Hertzberg of Orbital Machining (www.orbitalmachining.com) came to the rescue. 
 

He goes by Acerocket on these forums.

I may get one when I save a little more money. (I'm about to get an elder so it will be a while)
Darth Clonas was a Jedi for 4 years and joined the Sith Academy where he graduated and only uses a blue saber for fights inside the sith. For battles he uses a red saber . But, during his training, he was shocked and his outer tissues were destroyed, so he wears  armor. Darth Clonas now roams along his master, Lord Magnus.......

Unless I'm mistaken, weren't they a limited run? So even if you wanted one, you couldn't get one any more? I may be wrong, but that's what I thought.....

oh really? Well, I stand corrected. Get one if you can I guess =-), Although I prefer 1 inch blade's, and I know that isn't possible with this one.

The sabers in the latest run are just static props, not light-up ones like the originals.   ;)

I bought the fx version of this one from Obi-wan and it really is "perfect". Its very well designed and extremely accurate. When the obi-wan tpm's from Hasbro come out I'll take a comparison shot and post it up.
