After alot of feedback, and even more parts research, I am pleased to announce that a small run of 10 Darth Bane Curved lightsabers is possible!
Here are the details as they stand so far...The saber run would be almost identical to the prototype with these minor differences;1. Brushed Stainless Steel curved body instead of chrome
2. Different rubber grip (using the same material as the Corran Horn emitter)
3. No rumble motor - I've had some complaints from those who don't like how inherently inconsistent they can be
4. New material for the Krayt Bone grip - may be indestiguishable from the original
5. some wires will be visible in the crystal chamber
Here's how it will be the same as the original;1. CF 5
2. Red P4 LED (I will not use a Ledengin 10w red for Flash on Clash because of space limitations, and the battery pack)
3. Red 7 segment bargraph in the crystal chamber
4. oh yeah - a crystal chamber revealed by sliding the Krayt Bone grip
5. Acceptible for moderate-light duelling (claws will catch clothes/skin)
Price will be $1450 each.
Timetable might look like this depending on my partners availability.- Deposit of $450 would be due to secure your place
(ON OR BEFORE THE 5th of Sept)- Payment #2 of $450 would be due around Halloween
- Balance would be paid before saber ships (first week of December - hopefully)
Feel free to post questions and comments here... but only say "sign me up" if you'll honestly have the cash and committment. If there's enough serious interest - I will do the run.
