Title: The Rebellion, Projects coming soon...U really want to see this...EXAR KUN too!!
Post by: GENERAL GRIEVOUS on October 01, 2012, 09:02:05 PM
Future Rebellion Runs

Hello everyone.  With the overwhelmingly positive response to the very first Rebellion project, the KotOR saber, we have been hard at work planning the next 5 or 6 runs.  Some very exciting products to come.  In this thread, I will be presenting the renders for your approval.  If a render shows up here, the saber is planned (unless we get NO interest).  ***Price points and trim levels will be similar to the KotOR saber.***  The renders here are not the finished detail renders, but they are approved exterior design renders done by the Rebellion members.

Without further ado, allow me to present the future of the Rebellion!

So...should I just start signing over all my paychecks or can I make a deposit in organs?

Can't wait. Also, someone has to ask, may as well be me (sorry!) any ETA, however vague?

Oh and so you can map interest - I'd be in for a Kyle, an Obi and the Jacen.

any estimate on prices?
Title: Re: The Rebellion, Projects coming soon...you really want to see this.
Post by: GENERAL GRIEVOUS on October 01, 2012, 09:21:39 PM
LOL, not empties...Like I said in the first post...prices and trim levels will be similar to the KotOR offering.

ETA?  We shall see how efficiently the Rebellion members get the KotOR sabers finished up, but I would plan on at least a "few" of these happening in 2013...could be all of them.  We are actually just about finished with another design or two...my build log still has hints in it, lol.

Please, no Cardiac Arrest ;) ..but I am glad that folks are "havin' a happy". :D

*edit...I highlighted the pricing and trim level info for ya'll, since it seems that this level of excitement is interfering with first grade reading skills, lol.

LOL, I don't mind.  Two of the stated goals of the Rebellion are transparency and effective communication (and a sarcastic remark by me once in a while...to keep everyone frosty ;) )

I just hope that everyone who has been bugging me to make more Jacen Solos jumps on this.  I "donated" my original design to the Rebellion to get these done at a lower price point than if it were my personal run.  The Jacens are EXACT copies of my hand machined original and I ma very proud to offer it in this context.

Jacen Solo - Yes! I'm there.

Underlord - YES! I am there.

Katarn - Uh huh, you better believe I'm there.

Obi Apprentice - Nah

Blaster - I guess, I haven't had anything with a blaster soundchip inside it yet.

I would skip the underlord for sure.  Though I've mostly been going for character specific/canon vs more custom stuff for a while now. The rest I am looking forward to with the pair of westars.

I just hope that everyone who has been bugging me to make more Jacen Solos jumps on this.  I "donated" my original design to the Rebellion to get these done at a lower price point than if it were my personal run.  The Jacens are EXACT copies of my hand machined original and I ma very proud to offer it in this context.

Yeah was pretty excited to see them pop up in here, knowing full well that yours is pretty much the only design of this saber.

Also the Kyle Katarn...

Good stuff. 2013 will definitely be interesting for sure! 8)

Let me start by saying I will definitely be grabbing an obi padawan hilt.

That said, I kind of hate that the saber exists. Lore-wise, his padawan hilt was his TPM hilt. He was still a padawan in TPM. The book cover was just...well a lazy artist. And this is a recurring theme with the book covers, and why almost every NJO jedi has the same basic saber (basically a luke hero with tiny tweaks) - lazy artists.

By comparison, the continuity of the comic book artists is really quite good, albeit a few lapses here and there. As a saber fan it just bugs me how the cover designers are often the only source we have to go on for certain characters, and so often they're terrible, inconsistent, or disagree entirely with established canon.

Edit: perfect example - cover of Legacy of the Force: Fury - Ben suddenly has Obi's TPM saber somehow: http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20070711000845/starwars/images/3/3c/FuryCover.jpg (http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20070711000845/starwars/images/3/3c/FuryCover.jpg)

I believe there is actually a story behind that,  but I can't remember where I read it. The padawan hilt from the book cover was my suggestion for a run,  and I always imagined that one being his original training saber that the Temple provided,  whereas the one seen in Episode I was the first one he actually built himself upon being accepted as Qui-gon 's apprentice.  

A more likely explanation might be the fact that he was actually passed over for training as a padawan and was sent to the agri-corp where he eventually crossed paths with Qui-gon Jinn,  who was impressed with him in the field and took him as his new padawan.  It's possible the lightsaber was taken away from him when he was sent to the corps.  I haven't read the books to know for sure if there is an explanation given for it or not,  I just thought it was very nice looking design,  and one that should be produced.  ;)

Yes a lot of the book cover artists do seem to be 'lazy' and just rip off familiar designs or picture characters with their hands covering most details of the sabers so it is hard to know what the sabers really look like...but the artist for that particular cover did a better than usual job and that Obi-Wan First Padawan saber has always struck me as at least having a little originality and practicality to it - its ergonomics arent bad at all, it makes sense as an Ataru hilt, and it has elements that we can see might evolve in his later designs.

Very nice to see this 'glimpse of future'...Thanks General

I think Katarn/Obi Aprentice/Jacen are the best here, the underlord just seems kind of nebulous and uninteresting from my particular point of view but maybe that just me.

As much as new designs are cool, and a lot of people liked the alliance hilt, canon runs always seem to be big I think because that level of accuracy is not often attainable by those of us without epic equipment...also, Jango blaster, amazing!

I have to wonder what sort of internal space that Katarn would have.  If it could have almost an inch of room, I'd jump on a stunt.  That way if there is space I can put an Igniter in there and get the true Jedi Knight DFII experience with multiple blade color choices just like the multi-player of the old game.

No,  Deke,  I'm fully aware of how Mara got hold of Luke's lightsaber from ESB.  I have the novels where Luke gives it to her in my collection, .  What I'm thinking I remember reading was that there was a New Jedi Order expedition to Geonosis where either Tionne Solusar or Danni Quee found Obi-wan's AOTC saber in the ruins and returned it to Luke....or it was the one kicked into the reactor shaft on Naboo,  and someone found it and returned it to Luke....He eventually passed it on to Ben,  finding it fitting that he should be using his namesake's lightsaber.  Just can't remember if it was in the legacy of the Jedi or somewhere in the star wars Insider magazine, but I'm thinking it was in Legacy of the Jedi: Exile when Ben was on Ziost....just not sure.

It is also possible that Ben simply recreated the lightsaber himself because he liked the design....but I'll that probably never happens,  right?  ;)

You're thinking of Kenobi's third lightsaber, the one he had when he died.  It was later found by Orloc in one of Vader's old strongholds, and brought to the Jedi Praxeum, where it was eventually given to Anakin Solo.  It's the ROTS/ANH saber lore-wise.

Post by: GENERAL GRIEVOUS on October 02, 2012, 11:17:14 AM
Wheeew...Maybe I shouldn't have slept, lol. 

I will answer a few questions that stuck out to me.

Internal space on the Katarn (and all of them for that matter) will be less than an inch.  These hilts are created for the CSv1 in particular.  The reason?  We want them to be 1:1 scale (in other words, SMALL) and not big and gangly.  I think that the only ones that have larger than 1" bore planned are the Jacen Solo and the Underlord.  We haven't fleshed the Obi out to that level yet so I just don't know.  So, will the Katarn fit a CFv6 + CEx or an Igniter + daughter board...probably not.

The blasters...I am not promising anything, but we are efforting a sound solution for it.  Weather that be Blaster Core, or something else, it will indeed have a sound or stunt option.

As far as where everyone can sign up...nowhere yet.  This thread will help us to decide how to proceed.  Each successful run will breed another run.  We plan on doing them in a random to semi-random order and will likely eliminate hilts that do not pass the initial "interest thread" stage.

Finally, I just saw the initial renders of the Exar Kun...HOLY COW.  Y'alll gonna love that one too.

...carry on. ;D

It's cool that these are less than an inch I.D. to fit the Shard and keep them slim but for those not CS qualified who might want to buy a stunt and DIY convert it later will a NB also fit? Also will these be able to accept 1" blades or will they be 7/8"?

Title: Re: The Rebellion, Projects coming soon...you really want to see this.
Post by: Acerocket on October 02, 2012, 11:51:04 AM
We are doing our best to keep all sabers with 1" blades.  Some will have shallow blade holder depths, others won't.  Since Rebellion sabers are not being offered with blades (to keep costs to a minimum, especially where shipping is concerned), it is assumed most people have, or can get, a 1" blade pretty easily and inexpensively.

As far as internal sizes, it depens on the saber.  The KOTOR has 1 1/8" id.  We are trying to keep as many sabers as we can with at least a 1" bore.  Again, some designs have thin chokes so there will be some sabers with internal 'choked' sections between the blade and optic/LED setup.

Another Obi padawan hilt isn't so far fetched, seeing as he's lost his lightsaber in every one of the prequels.  Ironic joke about this weapon is your life, blah, blah, blah... Get a lanyard already, Kenobi! :D

kyle katarn!

shut up and take my money!

I'm holding out for that!

dibs on doing fonts for various projects if and when they happen and when the inspirations hits and I come up with something that fits the saber and the character who wields it.  it'd be fun to make fonts that fit character types and what not not just kinds of sabers.  this gives me something to tinker with!  and before i continue my hydrocodone induce rant yeah...

getting better slowly....i think.

Definitely down for one Jacen Solo hilt.
Possibly an empty if they are available that way, or maybe with the full treatment with a soundcard.

Jango blaster is of interest to me as well  :D

Would love to see a Naboo chromed blaster someday. That weapon would be more desirable because it is smaller.
Will the Jango blaster come chromed like in the movie? (Are they chromed or just really shiny in the movie?)

No chrome.  That would not fit with the Rebellion's stated business model.  Chroming would add at least $100 per saber and that is pretty steep for one feature.  The Rebellion really wants to keep ALL of their products affordable/obtainable for as many folks as possible.  None of them will be empties...PCv2.0/CSv1.x/stunt are the trim levels for sabers and the blaster will have sound/no sound option.

That's cool. I like that setup.
A Jacen Solo with any of those options will be a very nice saber.
The blaster is really awesome, too.

The Ulic Qel-Droma is pretty much a different saber in every frame - even in the introductory book... and was never consistent throughout the series.  Exar Kun's was only a tiny bit little more consistent, but he had more iconic and memorable frames, thus a more iconic and memorable hilt. ::)

I am glad to see love for the Kun.  It is certainly a "stylized" hilt, but it is one of the only Sith Sabers with a non-red blade.  I mean, what Sith wouldn't want a Cyan-bladed lightsaber after all?  It just makes it so unique...and Exar Kun's spirit was such a nasty character that I just identify with this saber.  Believe me, I wanted this one for my OWN run, but have consented to allow it to be a rebellion project to make it more accessible to more folks.

Cyan? I thought that Exar Kun's lightsaber was blue..?

But it is an awesome saber! Depending on when it is made I would be interested, since I also have some stuff drawn up for making a version of the Ulic Qel-Droma lightsaber at some point and it would be great to have a Brotherhood of the Sith lightsaber set with both of them

Whoa the Exar Kun sabers are sooo dang bee-yoot-ee-full [in an evil spiky Sithy way]...

BRAVO General for allowing it into the Rebellion!

Awesome looking designs but I'm trying to figure out where would sound vent on the double one? Reverse sound?

I like all of these too and hope to get one of each...however Exar Kun: Double FTW.  Seriously.

This is an awesome direction to go in with the Rebellion runs.  I look forward to these :)

All shall be revealed...when we decide, lol.

@DS3...wiki is...well, wiki.  All of the images I have seen over the years depicted it as a Cyan hue.  Of course, many consider BIN 6 blue and BIN 1 Cyan the same color.  The great thing is that folks can have "blue" blue or "cyan" blue...whichever they prefer!  :D

Oh of course, I was just curious because I wanted to try to find some of those cyan hued pictures, see what it might look like with that hilt. To google I go!

Indeed.  The render is pure WIN.  The saber will be EPIC.

I like that the double isn't just two sabers bolted together, in keeping with the original art.

Thank you for noticing.  We really wanted to stay true to the design of this saber (actually we did with all of these, but this one is more noticeable because of it's dual nature).

I love the Exar Kunn!  I need one of the doubles.  I like that the double is only one saber.  I know what I want for Christmas besides a pair of jango blasters.

Big time! Really nice renders. To be honest I can't wait. The Jacen Solo looks sweet as well. They all look nice. But....

I'll take one double Exar please!

Once we get the KotOR's out the door, we will collate this info and decide which one is next ;)  Maybe another 4-5 weeks or so.

Buahahahahahaha, you know I agree with that, lol but the Rebellion is a Democracy, not a Dictatorship so what I say only counts as 1/8 of an opinion... ;)
