Darth Vader's Overlord Staff, from Gemini Concepts
« on: August 28, 2009, 04:54:16 PM »
We' ve seen these a few times already, but I have always wanted one. After buying one of last  seven from Ultra, I was able to pick up one more in the Trade Federation. The coupler is a double ended male adapter from TCSS that I drilled a few holes in for sound and accent Lighting. I was gonna use the crystal chamber MHS piece but it seemed longer than I was hoping for. The port holes drilled supply enough to allow a good bit of sound out. Not toooo loud, but loud enough.

The Main LEDs are Luxeon III Bin 1 Greens, one hilt has a Sith soundboard, the other is driven by buckpuck. The center accent is 2  green accent LEDs on a Quick Disconnect so once my other MLS systems arrive from JANGO FETT, I can change the accents accordingly.

I agree with them! That coupler fits the saber very well! Great job Dusty, the saber looks amazing ;D. And the color scheme is very fitting as well, I like the LUX Greens.

I really love it.
The Overlord is a very good hilt for doubling it.
(It's killing me to see an Overlord though, but that's anoyher story) ;)
I would have taken one coverteck from the saber, also cause they are not in line.
I did that with my double Maul.
On the other hand,... the Maul was from origin a long hilt.
Well congratulations with this beauty.

Very cool looking staff. I have to echo what everyone else said. That coupler really makes the saber pop.  ;) ;) ;D ;D :-*

Be carefull, Wookies don't like to be teased.
They take arms off when they got mad.
Keep your lightsaber close to you, my advise.
Or a box of cookies, may helpfull.
