Big update...spots open...I think, lol.

A note on the MKVI's...I literally have 20+ people asking.  I cannot in good conscience select the best "back door" deal.  I have decided to just build the last 3 or 4 and Auction them here (or in my Blog).  The first will be a MKVI V2.  It is already weathered and will likely be finished in about a week.  The Auction sabers will all very likely be PCv2.0 sabers, since I only have 2 CF's left right now and have 3 CF projects to do.  I know that this may upset some of you and for that you have my sincerest apologies.

Sounds good to me! I better get my bid on 8)

I hit you up with an email just after 8 the other day. ^_^ Let me know, if not I guess I HAVE the war it out in the bids.

What kind of timeframe are we talking about for the MKVIs after this first V2?

I will rotate them between each commission i think.  So, likely one every couple of weeks for 8-ish weeks.

GG, how many MKVIs are left?  I had a figure a while back on the original number in the run - it was at least 46 - but I wouldn't know where to start tracking them down.  Are these to be the last MKVIs put out?

I dunno man, the original auctions all went in the $900-1000 range.  I really don't know where it will go, but I wanted to give folks a chance.

@ JM419...these will take us to 55.

That's not bad, considering my install was around $800 (I won't give the exact number, just a ballpark figure) - and I was in on the run from the beginning.

Ah, 55.  The number I originally came up with.  So that's it, then, eh?

#46 and I will have a moment of silence for the end of the run right here.

Thanks for the offer, but since this is my "product", I need to be responsible enough to incur all production costs and not drop it on you good folks.

Completely understandable, it was more of a statement of desireability ;)

Hey General,
Just for clarification, for MKVI Auction #2 your FX build log says you have an MKVI Hero saber on the bench, while your website blog says MKVI V2 saber.  So what will it be?  Shiny or weathered?  ;D

He told me the other day when I asked him that it will be a hero version.  He can confirm that when he comes on, but I figured I'd let you know.   ;)
