In need of an RGB Lightsaber
« on: June 23, 2009, 10:45:37 AM »
Hello all,
I am looking for an RGB LED Lightsaber. One with a CF 4.1 or 4.0 would be great but I know how hard that is to find.
I would prefer something original rather then a MR but would be will to go with an MR if I had too. I would just put together a MHS and install the LED myself but I am down fro now from a motorcycle accident. So, it's going to be a while. Any help with this would be great!

I saw a very nice Do-Clo on Ebay with an RGB....opening bid is only $99.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Do-Clo-Custom-Lightsaber-Led-Prop-Inspired-By-Star-Wars_W0QQitemZ280361587277QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item4146da524d&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12|66%3A2|39%3A1|72%3A1205|240%3A1318|301%3A0|293%3A1|294%3A50

There's 3 days left as of now, but I would watch this if I were you. It looks like a great hilt, and of course you can upgrade the sound in it later.

Nice find Caine,  ut that one's a little too short to add a cF toalter on, i think....it's only 9 inches long,  and there's no teeling how much rom the battery pack is taking up.  Still, a cool saber none the less.

Oh yeah, never thought about that. I didn't even think about the size...

BUT that is still a really nice saber. The opening bid is great and I suppose if you just wanted a reg. RGB saber that would be the way to go. Do-Clo does amazing work.

My advice is pick that saber up anyway.  ;)

Hey thanks Cane, for the heads up. I did see that one. For the price (if it stays that way) it's a great deal. He makes nice sabers! I don't know. I would like a longer one. It is a nice saber tho.

Amptrooper,

First, sorry to hear about your accident.  Hope your feeling better soon.

Second, to answer your question, we often use RGB's and some custom tri-rebels in builds...but as soon as we post them, they sell.  People really like the purple (to Magenta/pink) blade options.  Vader's Vault (Fender and Allaerra) also use a lot of RGB's. 

Are you looking to commission a build or are you just asking if one is already available?

Master Jedye,  I am looking for either. I would be open to commission a saber if the price is not crazy. I have heard of people spending insane amounts for a commissioned saber.  But, yeah, I am open to it.
I am fond of the orange tones of the rgb.

Then, I would recomend a trip to the mining colony :   http://www.fx-sabers.com/forum/index.php?board=55.0

Find a sabersmith whose style you like and send them a pm with for a price quote....keep in mind that the more detail you provide, the more accurate the estimate will be.

Good luck!

Well Gemini Concepts and Vader's Vault are two OUSTANDING sabersmiths, and their RGB's do rock. (I have never used them but have seen their work). Also, you have to think about your definition of "crazy" when it comes to price. A custom RGB saber with a C.F. saber alone will run you AT LEAST $450 (and I am being modest there!).

In any event, I hope with all these answers you have been pointed in the right direction and good luck on your quest for your saber!

BTW....if you don't bid on that RGB Do-Clo, I just might! (finder's fee, lol)

Caine, I thought about getting that Do-Clo saber. I like the looks of it and for the price it's a good find.
I don't know if in the future I could lengthen the saber. I guess with a little work it could be done. I think I am going to see were the bidding is in a few days. I am not wanting to get in to a bidding war with you so if you want it let me know and I will not bid on it. That way the price stays down.

Hey I want to thank you all for wishing me well! Unfortunately I really hurt myself bad. I will most likely be having an amputation of my right leg soon. The thing that sucks is because of the lack of insurance when this happened it hurt our fiances I had Plasma sabers, EL and MR FX. I sold them all to help my wife out. Now I have a few extra dollors from selling more junk and just would like to get a saber back. That's all. Out of all the stuff I sold I just want a lightsaber back.
Yep, Lightsaber junkie!

My friend, I believe that you need that lightsaber more than me. I will not bid on it and I hope that you win the auction!
