  • Um...Hello?
I couldn't agree with you more. I truly think MR's Yoda will suprise us all with brand new technology, an amazing hilt, and super brightness. I think it'll come out May or June.

Well, they say the even though it is in the works, it is still not definite yet untill they announce it officially. I think they may put this one off because of the 30th Anniversary. But one things for sure the future of the FX line up has never looked brighter, IMO.  ;)

2010...I certainly hope it's better than 2009 was! ::)
10/10/10~Well, so far with my Father's passing away, I'd say that this year was actually worse than 2009, even the fact that I now have a full time job (For now) isn't anywhere near enough to make up for that...so...maybe 2011 will be better? I'm not holding my breath... ::)

If they do make a Yoda FX, I hope they revise the technology so that the hilt can be at least nearly accurate sized.

It being short handled and more accurate will probably be the reason why I wouldn't buy this one, ironicly enough... :P


On the other hand though I don't need a one handed saber, if the hilt and blade quality is good enough, I may add it to my collection for those reasons. This is just going to have to be a wait and see for me on this one.

I think if it is accurate sized a lot of people will buy it just for the novelty of having a little saber. It would be quite different.
I understand what you say about only wanting the best. I am starting to feel that way myself. The Luke has always bothered me a bit because of the blotchy blade. I plan to sell it and get the 'Hero' upgrade from JSS. I think I may go all luxeon and just keep my favourite MRs stock, just for the power up/down effect.
If the Obi-Wan is as good as everyone says (and I trust you guys on that) than it may be one of the ones I will get and keep stock.

Oh, GOD...I could NEVER bring myself to convert my Obi-Wan. Even if GOD forbid the LED's go bad, I will find some extra Obi-Wan LED strips left over from conversions and replace it before I'd go Luxeon with this. The blade is too smooth and bright to want to do anything else to, IMHO.

Great conversation guys!

Me too, I would never convert my Obi Wan. The blade is too evenly lit!

At the moment I only have the Obi-Wan, FX-Sabers Luxeon Luke ANH Graflex, and the Luke ROTJ which I am selling. Those are the only two sabers that I have right now. I plan on re-adding the Vader ESB back into my collection at a later date.[/Off Topic]

Now back on topic.... :P

I may even get me a second Obi-Wan as I love mine so much, that I want to get another one to keep mint.  ;D
