Caine's review of his Leia saber
« on: April 30, 2015, 11:14:52 AM »
This gem is one that I have wanted off and on over the years, but never got around to purchasing. I was able to procure the hilt from my pals at Force Relics, who had polished it to a beautiful shine that Leia herself would be happy with. LDM/GG performed the install with a Crystal Shard v 2.5, and RGBW LED with the green, blue and white dies utilized for the blade colors and FoC. The C.S. 2.5's color changing on the fly is a very cool feature, and although I am not generally one that needs or wants that sort of thing, it works very well for this weapon. 6 individual sound banks with fonts from Madcow and Novastar round out the sounds.

Overall it's a very lightweight and very comfortable hilt to wield.

All the blade/FoC colors are showcased on the vid. Blade is a dual wrapped Corbin blade from TCSS.  Font is Madcow's "Jaina SOTJ" from Saberfont.com.

Very fitting font choice, I use that one quite often with my REV-N.  Love the unique Yuuzhan Vong sound effects.  Nice saber too!

Awesome. Definitely looks like a great spinner. Congrats Caine. I go back and forth wanting this one, too.

Very nice. No sharp edges. Was this sanded before it was polished? 
He must live.
