My Force FX lightsaber photos
« on: September 02, 2005, 05:38:34 PM »
Hi;

Well, I've been reading this board for a few months now (found it while I was waiting for my first lightsaber to arrive), and now that I've got a couple of Force FX's I thought I might as well post photos of them, since that's what this section of the forum is for, after all.  So, in the order I got them, here are photos of:

Vader ANH
Mace AOTC
Anakin ROTS
All three together

Hi;

Thanks !  Generally speaking, the Mace does seem brighter than the Anakin, at least as far as my camera is concerned.  It's  also unfortunate that my camera doesn't seem to pick up the purple of the Mace properly,  seeing it as a strong whiteish-blue.  I've replaced the batteries in the Anakin, and to my eyes it does look noticeably  brighter than it was before.  Once it gets dark I'll take another photo, and if there's a difference I'll post a comparison.

Well, as far as the camera was concerned, there was no real difference in brightness observable in the photographs, so I won't bother uploading another one.  I think it's just a peculiarity of my camera - odd, since from what I've seen many people have trouble with the Vader red showing up as orange, but are able to photograph the Anakin/Mace without trouble, whereas I seem to be the opposite :-) Oh well.

Well, I've just acquired a 2003-edition Luke ROTJ saber (with an EL rather than LED blade), and so thought I'd post a photo of it as well as some quick notes.  As others have commented, it is far greener in person than it looks in a photograph - it really does appear green with no hint of blue, though it certainly is a lighter lime green rather than the strong deep green that's seen in the film.  The hilt itself is very light and manoeuvrable, lighter than any of the other hilts in my collection.  It could be that it only feels lighter, of course, since it's a very simple, streamlined hilt and so is easy to hold and wield, but it certainly seems lighter in the hand.  The sound is actually very good, far better than the Anakin AOTC sabers I've seen and heard - it's very similar in pattern to the Mace Windu, only much louder - it's slightly louder than the Vader ANH, I'd say, though not as loud as the Anakin ROTS.

Anyway, here is a photograph - sorry the green doesn't really come through, but if you're thinking of getting one don't let that put you off - it really is green, and not the aqua blue that photographs generally show.

Here is another photo, taken in dim room lighting, that does show up the lime green colour a little better.

The Mace is actually one of the new 2005 edition ones (with the 'Red blade' misprint on the box).  It really does look purple, it's just a peculiarity of my camera that seems to make it look more a strong whiteish-blue.  I'll take a picture of it in low light and see if that shows it better than total darkness, since this seemed to work well for the Luke ROTJ.
