SF Leia for Caine

Caine got this from the fellas at Force Relics.  They did the polish work.  He asked me if I could do a rush job for him for CVII.  What d oyou think I said, lol?  It has a CSv2.5 with BGW Dice hooked up so he can get all manner of blues, greens and Ice colors.  I had forgotten how poorly engineered the internal real estate in these was, but we worked it out.  Minor milling was all that it took.  A blast from the past for sure.


The Particulars:
Empty SF Leia hilt
CSv2.5 Sound
LDM 12W RGBW LED (GBW)
Machined Resonance/Recharge in pommel
3.7V 2000 mAh Li-ion
26mm LDM HO speaker
High Polish by Force Relics

My favorite led set up. Great for clan sabers. :)

I always wanted a Leia ish saber.

I agree.  Everythinbg doesn't have to be "RGB" to be cool.  I really love the Ice colors so this is a great combo to me too...and Caine sure seemed to like it when he picked it up.

I like it very much. I am not on to like color changing sabers, but for this one it works very well and I love the color combos. Review of this will be coming when I get a chance.

Yeah, it's easy to forget that there are other options besides RGB or single color.  This is a cool way to get a select group of colors.  Nice work!

Looking forward to seeing that review, I've always been curious about how this particular hilt style would handle.

These sabers have a cool style.

LDM did a great job with this! I love the blue green and white combination. I believe in a shorter range of colors like this because I believe a real Jedi with his or her crystal could get slight variation in color but not like most people with RGB can go from red to purple to green or blue. I like this you can 'fine tune' a color in this blue green range with a bit of white added in for a realistic looking core possibly.

Good luck with your saber, Caine. Very nice.

Now that is a "cool" color range.  Great vid ! I'm Sure they look way better live! :o

I bet the new owner had a ball with it.
