You Got Me by the walls :D how much ?
You Got Me by the walls :D how much ?
Is that a "yes - I'm interested?"
I gotta say I'm pleasantly surprised that my design has resonated with so many people. I will also echo what Ventress said - the rule of thumb for saber runs is that 30% of those interested drop out when the money is due. Add to that - the list is almost a year old - it will shorten on the 20th, be sure of it.
NOTE FOR CF HOLDERS;
Coming soon - I will post a price to have YOUR OWN CF installed instead of a PC if you wish. It will probably be close to that same amount.

Yeah that is a great offer to have our own CF installed
Fingers crossed the list empties out so i can get in on the 10
This is a beautiful saber. No doubt. Wish I knew who Corran Horn was.
But this looks top notch!
I thought I had requested to be placed on the previous list, either way I am still very interested!
a few questions MC..
is a lighted chassis a possability?
and what about a 2 watt speaker??
also on the rumble motor... i wouldnt be too fussed about a rumble motor, in my experience with them they are more trouble than worth with them going crazy to burning out, on the plus side a 2watt speaker can sometimes give you that "rumble"
Hey Rob, is there any chance at all you would consider increasing the run size to anything higher than 10?? It certainly looks like the interest is there ;)
Maybe have to wait for a third run :(

Read the book "I, Jedi"
hi madcow just wondering what color foc are you going with for this saber? or is color to be requsted by the buyer?
i must have read this somewhere but forget, what size blade do these take? im excited cant waitMadcow mentioned in his video a one inch blade
Whoever is able to get in on this run will be very lucky folks. These are beautiful sabers :).
Thirded. Spring for the CF version. Lots of potential for upgrades and customization ;D
I think I will go with the P.C for this saber. A CF would be awesome but funds can be limited. :-\ A weathered version is a must have for me. ;D

seeing how ur spot is lower than mine, i think u and i will have plenty of time to save funds for CF waiting for the third run to come around.
YES!! :D I made it :) really didn't think I was going to then.
So happy, I really needed a win right now.
Thank you so much for doing this second run Rob, so excited! :)
I'm interested
I'm so happy I'm in!
When I started hanging here, the first run was underway and I was thinking "I'm never spending that cash on a Lightsaber". Here we are a year or so later, and when this is done I'll have my two unicorns... So happy there's a second run of these :))
Then it's time to save up to my Unicorn car, but that's another story ;)
*In my best vader voice*
Nooooooooooo! So close "/
Oh well. Still have hope to get in right?
Only 15? Any plan on stretching that to 20 by chance?

Yeah, Madcow is the man for boosting this up to 15, gives more people the chance of owning this highly sought after masterpiece. I bet he's happy that there is so much interest, as there should be. This is a truly special saber!
I never thought I'd have the chance to own one of these, so glad for this second run! I can't tell you how many times I've constantly looked through videos and reviews of the first run of Corran Horn sabers! :D
I personally hope for a rumble motor, seems to just work really well with this saber!
I'm interested
Glad to see you made it on this run Ladyhawke :)
Im hoping the rumble motor stays part of this run aswell
Thanks everyone, I have alot of emails to answer tomorrow... fifteen or so.

I have a new model rumble motor but no tests - no promises, but it it works well in tests I will consider adding it included in the price. The price also reflects a stand to be included - but that is not firmed up yet.

Here's hoping all goes well with the motors!
I'm happy to pay extra for one if it comes to it and can't be included in the price :)
Ugh, so close yet so far away! Can three people drop out for me please? Lol
Same. Lucky number 13 for me! :D

hey rob iv seen on some of the corran horn reviews guys put a little magnet in the d ring to stop it from rattling. would that be something you wouldnt mind doing? im pretty sure others would like that small addition. no dramas if you cant just thought id check

Jango discovered that trick. I've done it on mine, and it's pretty good. But the only place for those magnets I've found charged a redicuslous amount for shipping. Besides, I have to leave SOMETHING for the user to do him/herself.
And yes madmartigan... Confirmed participants can pay off their invoice anytime.
If Obi-Wan doesn't want it I surely do!

Sorry you had to back out Night.
And.......I'm in! Woot!
Payment sent, weathered hilt please!
In other words, I'd love for this saber to have a rumble motor! It seems to fit the theme of the saber so well
If a rumble motor shorts out will it affect the entire electronics ?QuoteIn other words, I'd love for this saber to have a rumble motor! It seems to fit the theme of the saber so well
This saber is most unique and I think the rumble motor will suit it as well. Since (in the story) the saber was made out of scrounged up parts, I envision it not quite running smooth and thus it would "rumble" a bit.

After my wife got done teasing me, by playing the new star wars kinect game in dancing mode, I got to play a little bit of the jedi mode. Suprisingly, one of the padawan learners had a saber that looks remarkably like this one...Got any pics of that saber Nartules ? :)

Congrats to the two new lucky people that are joining us on this epic run!Excited Yes :o : We have been waiting all year for this moment to arrive and I am great-full the time is near :o
Woo, so excited! :)
hi rob im sorry to bombard you with questions but the news is out about the new pc 2.0 with the same swing senses as the cf etc so even though it is early days and the price will not be announced for an hour and a half, would this be an option. off coarse id be willing to pay any difference in price if it works out more expensive? yhanks dude
All the 15 participants have paid their deposits.
Thanks for all the interest!
I will post updates periodically here.
thats 2 vs 2 so far.. also are u guys going with hard case? I chose hard case cuz the one in the review looked very nice for safekeeping and traveling purposes.
oh defo weatherd all the way for me it just adds so much character to the saber
also chose a hard case
and if mc is wiling to do so a lit chamber here please
all the guys who chose unweatherd can always get it weatherd
5 for weathered vs 2 clean...i usually don't like weathered sabers but madcow did a weathered job i've seen and it's very tempting but all my sabers are clean and i want to keep them that way. i think it's those dull weathered emitters make it look real authentic. and i just can't bring myself to pay someone to scratch up my sabers.
either version is a definte winner no matter what, still pinching myself to check if i'm really in this run. Just can't believe that many ppl dropped out, i was so sure that the only way was for 3rd run to come around if it ever dids. I guess u really can't be sure till the fatcow, i mean madcow sings.
I went with Clean. May not be accurate to the character but I am happy with my choice. Also went with hardcase. :)
gosh, I was two slots away to be part of this run... You would think that if you can go to 15 why not just make 20. That's more in your pocket for sales and I'd get my saber slot too.
Sorry ;D u snooze u lose...that's why when i see a post about a run, I check it everyday religiously. Still can't believe how many ppl got dropped. I wonder how many ppl lost their spot due to similar reason like arcana's
hmm lame, guess I missed that announcement. Last I heard the list was being updated on the 20th, which post 1 still talks about. I confirmed on the first page. Anyway, a PM would be awesome next time. =)
The run is on!
Details in first post.
If you are in the top 15 spots - please email me to recive instructions BEFORE paying the deposit
madcow.genesis@gmail.com
No emails, no PMs. Just the original PM I got from you on March 9th about run #2 starting up. My inbox is not full. Obviously I dropped the ball on the thread, but apparently there may be something wrong with the PM system.

Anyone want to sell their spot cuz I have a CF v5 and no saber to put it in... Let me know. Some people may need to back out so I'm interested in relieving that burden, lol.Good luck with finding someone in dire monetary situation.
I'm really not trying to ruffle any feathers...but isn't EgonMcGregor next in line?
I'm really not trying to ruffle any feathers...but isn't EgonMcGregor next in line?Bayne-Fett I'm not trying to bash on ur parade but thats how i thought it works but ROB has the final call on it so both of yall start praying, help the needy, do some charity work and good thigns will come ur way. Best of luck to both of u. But in fareness to Bayne, he is the one that took the initiative to try to find someone to sell him their spot. So i think this will come down to coin flip. Heads or tails anyone??
Clarification.... I found a previous run owner who is willing to sell their saber from Rob's first run. That's what I meant as "found one"... based off my first mention, someone PM me if I was interested. Sorry I didn't think it would be misunderstood.
Bumber for Egon, see that's waht happens when u hog all the graflexes and saber god is fair. lolClarification.... I found a previous run owner who is willing to sell their saber from Rob's first run.

will any stand or plaque be included in this package?
Oh yes - only the best will do.
Pics coming soon.

If anyone needs to or wants to give upthere spot I will bemore than happy to take it. I ahve a CF5 waitng to be used as well. xxx. Why do I miss all they good stuff while working??
Selling one's spot in a run is fairly common, so Letifer isn't far off the mark in asking, since everyone has put down a deposit. The "next one in line" doesn't usually get "bumped up" in that case. Sorry Impa. ;)
As far as someone from the first run selling theirs, I doubt that will happen too easily. I'm not giving mine up, and I know about half of the other owners - and I know they aren't likely to "sell" either as they are "collectors". 8)
Good Luck! :D

: Mr Stackpole also mentioned these sabers were in the Thousands and forgot to Mention GCS by Maddcow lol :D
But with the desirability of this hilt you'll have to watch the forum like a hawk.Couldn't have said it any better than this.
Anyone looking to sell, I can give you the money asap. I also have some sabers and Star Wars memorabilia if looking to trade. PM me if you decide to do this.
Madcow/Genesis, if you make me a hilt I'll buy your purple blade lightsaber on eBay too:)

Looks excellent - are these machined one piece emmitters and guard? Different from the way you did it on the first run? I like it.
I just finished all the powdercoating!

next week I start prepping the wiring.
a few teaser pics
QuoteThe last I knew, the run does not include a lit chassis. Correct me if I am wrong. I would love to be wrong.QuoteEveryone is getting a lit Quartz crystal in the chassis!
Question:
So those of us on the confirmed interest list... won't get one this run it looks like, unless you whip out some magic mojo extra stock on us.
So does that mean we get shifted to the front of the line for the next run... assuming there will be one???
Madcow - how did the rumble motor testing go this time round? Will they be included in these sabers? *crosses fingers for a yes* :D
Thanks!
That's the general idea... IF I do another run. This time I think I gave two weeks for the people who missed out last time to contact me to confirm interest before they were dropped. I'd probably do something similar if there's a next time.
awesome news madcow you know me.. iv been pushing for that lit crystal chamber from day 1 im very glad and releived that you have included one
thanks for that
as for the leds on the cf board are they just for extra coolness?
also the chassis is it removable or is it fixed now as its lighted? i beleive the one in run 1 was removable
so whos getting the lights on the cf?

International : I Believe it stops from the shipping destination to the outside countries
I shipped to Canada from the USA when tracking was lost after leaving my country ?
I tried entering recipient emails when I purchased the shipping labels. I expected the recipients would receive tracking info by email today. If that did not occur (sabers #12-15)- then email me for the tracking info.
email sent rob, i didnt receive any tracking info either..
saber number 14
is this built to stand dueling? not that i will duel but its always good to know

got mine today, man this thing looks 100 times better in person. Pictures don't do justice for this saber. Rob, you are a fine artist.
Madcow's sabers are made to stand up to medium dueling (I'm guessing the Corran Horn falls under this category too). I use my Darth Bane for dueling and it's awesome. I'm sure Caine will tell you the same thing :D
I think you're always going to instinctively hold back a little so to speak though, as it's a high end elite Madcow saber. That's what I do with my Bane :)
Oh and not long now for this amazing saber to be in my hands! :D

WoW :o :o :o that looks soo COOL ;)
stupid question, but is it too late to be on this run, but more over, the next if there is a next? i kinda missed this way way back and i regret not going on it.
anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
Yeah, I'm with you Clark, I missed out on BOTH of these due to various reasons...but IF there is a third run, I'll race you to the front of the line. 8)
Got anything else coming down the pipe?
Got anything else coming down the pipe?
Rob's planning an Ascend run later this year as hinted on his FB site....
Out of curiosity, what does this replica weigh?
I know that the spots are filled, but just to show interest in it and if exceptions are made, I am most definitely interested.
It may be my fault. I've been dropping rumors that I'm working on a Corran Horn run #3 with an all new chassis.
:o plenty of time to gather funds :P
Due to continued interest - I'm now considering a second run. Those of you who expressed interest in the previous run but missed out - will find your name and place transposed into this thread. Please confirm your interest or relinquish your spot.
I'm releasing the font I was preparing...
Bad news is a 3rd run has been shelved indefinitely...
I think its time the saber community works on Cloning Rob. More Rob's, More Sabers.
Just thought I'd take a look at your website and saw the creed sold out. Of course I freaked, then read the release date, 11th Jan. Then saw the video. Exciting!
Thinking I might have to let this round go for now. Would the std unweathered Creed just be anodised black? Personally I've always preferred straight clean black....
Also, that Vector coming back? Love the sleek design of that.
Going to go ahead and assume that the third run is still shelved? I'm still waiting patiently with my wallet ready.
Going to go ahead and assume that the third run is still shelved? I'm still waiting patiently with my wallet ready.
I think that’s a good assumption.
I'm so glad people still like my Corran Horn design.
It's shelved yes... but I plan to make time in 2019 to revisit some of my old designs and see if any warrant a redesign.
