Title: Ki-Adi-Mundi's Luke ROTJ LED (2005) Review
Post by: Ki-Adi on November 28, 2005, 06:06:37 PM
Oh man is this saber ever great! I love the hilt, the sound, the color, I love everything. I would give this saber a 9/10 why? Because I can't give it 10/10 because nothing is perfect, even if this is pretty close! ;)

Pros
-Hilt is really wicked
-Color is also wicked
-Luke Skywalker's
-Great sounds
-Brightness is.........well really bright!

Cons
-Took 2 weeks to get to me
-Doesn't look like Luke's hilt, but I don't blame 'em, you can't fit electronics in a neck that skinny
-I paid $180 CAN, why can't these things be free!


Below is a link to a video of my new saber:

Nice review, I'm impressed with your moves, I wish I knew them but I need a lot of practice. It's comfortable practicing with this saber than the others which makes it lighter.

Thanks Kyle but actually those are very hard. I wish I could do better moves. But I just got my saber so I'll get better.

Ya I am impressed. I love this baby I look at it every 10 minutes. I was writing my review and I got sidetracked by my saber. I have tried all 4 of the '05 series and I would have to say this one is the best. But that is just one man's opinion.

You did well even better than I do, nice spins. I need a lot of practice to perform like that.

Nice vid and review! That makes me really want the Luke saber.

Post by: cw on November 29, 2005, 06:56:33 PM
I said I was only buying the Vader....then got the Ani....now the Luke. (These are like crack). The Luke is by far becoming my favorite even though the others feel heavier and more substantial. It's very unique and easier to swing. The green is intense. I have pics on here somewhere showing how bright it looks in pics even in the morning. I think it's the only one that you can get a pic in the light but still have an intense core effect. It is also harder to come by than the other sabers. Very good first choice. (Oh no, I just realized the store next to me should be getting Maces tomorrow. The addiction continues! lol).

Thanks everyone! Yes I love my Luke ROTJ, it is so wicked. I hope everyone who is getting one likes theirs as much as I love mine. I can't wait to get more.

Yep, you'll definately want more, once you own the first one you'll want to collect the rest.

how sensitive is your motion sensors on this thing mine makes the vwing sound even when im trying to hold it still is mine a defect?
Title: Re: Ki-Adi-Mundi's Luke ROTJ LED (2005) Review
Post by: Ki-Adi on December 02, 2005, 11:14:28 PM
Ah mine does that sometimes. It happened alot when I first got my saber tho. If it doesn't wear out after a while don't worry. There is nothing wrong with a very sensitive motion sensor. It is normal.

Impressive demo of the saber!

I wouldn't do those fancy swings, though.   I'd be too afraid I'd smack something too hard and break it.     Now if they were unbreakable..... :D

Post by: Ki-Adi on December 18, 2005, 12:41:59 AM
I didn't think it was that fancy, it was the first day I got my saber so I never got to practice it plus I had to do it inside. But thanks. Ya I am extra careful with my babies I've accidently hit stuff but my saber it perfectly fine after. When I'm with my Luke ESB I am so careful I don't go half as crazy with my ESB as I do with my ROTJ. Thats the good thing about EL's is the light won't break like LED's. I want to get a Ki-Adi-Mundi Sith Planet EL but they are working on it. Once it is done I want it.

I could probably do stuff like that myself if I wasn't so afraid of breaking one.

I'd likely do some Ataru moves and spins, or some VERY aggressive Vapaad like moves.   Factly, my entire fighting style would be based on Luke's going postal on Vader from ROTJ at the end.   Aggressive, but in the end, I would calm myself before the dark side consumes me...Maybe I'd even throw in some force powers to resist pain, add damage, or even trick the enemy into attacking where I want (so I know where to counter).

I know what you mean. I ordered my Luke ROTJ like middle of November and then like December 2nd I ordered Luke ESB. I had to order Luke ESB though because it wasn't like they had millions. hahaha
