Congrats, Master Knucle!  :)

The Dooku is undoubtably the most ornate hilt from either trilogy, and truly is a wonder to behold.  :o
I love the gothic design of this hilt, it suited both the character of Dooku, and Christopher Lee himself so well.

If I was you...   I'd be broke now!  ;)

The Dooku really is like no other.  Even just thinking about how to ignite it, since the switch is down at the bottom makes you realize just how different from everything else out there it is.

And since this thread needs a temporary pic, I'll pass along a previously un-uploaded one of mine.

This is my most wanted MR hilt.  As most of you know, I'm an OT guy, but there is just something about this design that grabs me.

Congrats!

I have to agree. The Dooku Saber is probably one of my favorites!!!! It's just so cool to look at, and different from any other saber.

Very Cool!

Congrats on your "first step into a larger world"

I hope that they make a CE version of it in the future, or even a ROTS version would be sweet.

It has been speculated that since the Dooku LE didn't sell very well when it was released, going back for another LE or  even a CE is unlikely anytime soon. :-\

Hard to believe it didn't sell well.  But I think the prop buying community was different in 2002.  There's been a lot of growth.

I love the Dooku.  I worked really hard to track one down this year at it's original price.  So unique.

LE are great fun, but of course they are very addictive, as you are starting to feel already DK! :D

(**Edit** Sorry, forgot about your name change, Master Knucle, I guess I should start calling you JMK :D )

If they worked, they'd never stay so pretty as we'd be dueling all the time. :D

As I said over on RS, my first reaction to the ROTS Vader was hatred, but as that price keeps falling, I'm getting more and more intrigued.  The allure of a good deal or an LE addiction?  Take your pick. ;D

Some of the LE's have been dropping greatly in price.  In fact I saw a set of 3 new LE's (anakin, obi, vader rots versions) sell for 500.
