Ebay: Episode 2 Anakin Skywalker lightsaber replica but NOT MR SOLD

[5postboy]

EDIT: You can now bid on it on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=003&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&viewitem=&item=130091412579&rd=1&rd=1

Hi there, I am selling an extremely rare and very well made, fully machined, 100% aluminium Anakin saber that is not made by Master replicas. All black parts are not painted but black anodised. I was advised by Michael Murphy AKA YODA to post here. He had recently purchased a similar saber with slight improvement from this one. Michael was extremely happy with his purchase of my lightsaber. Attached are photos of my replica next to a real movie screen used version. So I am offering this saber at just $220 shipped. This is the only one I have to grab it while you can. I accept paypal at pacific_5@yahoo.ie

You can email me too if you want it as well. Thanks for looking, chen.

This guy does do fantastic work.  Like a titanium Luke ROTJ lightsaber for instance. :o

[Yoda]

Yes He does  :) Chen sabers are very rare and excellent in excecution.


The Anakin I got from Him is simply incredible and looks like a Dysmo Artist proof for MR 8)
The one I got is the V2 which had some changes to the grip area and it is 1 of 2.

The one He posted here is the V1 and is the only other one available.
I highly recommend them for display sabers.

But that's just it... Chen Sabers are display sabers only (like MR LE and EE ;)
These are not for stripping down to make into Luxeons as they are multi piece sabers internally
and have no real room and would need to be redesigned to accomodate anything else.

Who ever gets it, please put it in a nice case where it belongs 8)

Mine sits in a Case next to a Vintage Graflex in immaculate condition as a tribute to my favorite of the
Skywalker sabers. 8)

wow, that saber looks awesome 8)
and there can't be chipping on the black stuff cause it was anodized, not painted.

[darthmaddy]

Does this have inlaid grips?  I'd love to buy it, but all my extra money for the rest of the year is involved in other projects.

[Yoda]

The Grips on mine are definitely in-set into the hilt 8)

I believe these are as well from the close up picts I've got, and I can email anyone those picts if they want them :)
Just PM me and let me know for any interested in those larger pictures for the Chen V1 Anakin AOTC.

[darthmaddy]

Guys this is a good deal.  If you like the Anakin AOTC, its either this or shelling out for the MR LE and those are going for about $400.  I'd get this myself if it weren't for my current costume project.

[Kyp Durron]

I'd be all over that like white on rice, but just about everyone here already knows why I can't touch it or anything else for the next few weeks.  :D

Hey guys thanks for all the nice words you've put in for me. Yes I've done a Titanium ROTJ luke before but that was the only one made ever since. It was so expensive and difficult to construct. Well yes, the grips are set into the main body so it's not just some glued on grips like the ANH Luke saber. I'm not sure how come the pics are so small since they were suppose to be larger. Did I set it wrongly over here? Anyway it's still up for sale. I'll drop the price to $220 which is $20 off the original price just for people on this forum and because Michael has been an awesome guy. Jump on it guys, you won't get a better deal than this. Please let  me know, chen.

Hello Chen

Good to see you on the Boards 8)

If you want to add links to clickable pictures that are larger you can.
( the site resizes things to keep the forum moving along quicker ;) )

I again have to extend my compliments for the quality of the build 8)
It reminds me of an Artist Proof type of model because it's accurate in size and
shape but because it isn't chromed it still has the machined look to it which
is something I personally Like.

I even had an "artist proof" plaque done for mine :)

[5postboy]

Hey Michael, I've done the clicks. Thanks for letting me know. Wow, I've glad you like my saber that much. It's always a great compliment when my customers does a custom plaque for the saber they bought. It shows how much they like it. Thanks. Do show a pic with the saber and plaque when it's done. I personally hate the MR chromed furnishes on their saber. It looks like jewelleries instead of a weapon. Thanks, chen.

[Yoda]

I totally agree about the finish, I like the "weapon" look.

Much like the way I prefer the look of a Graflex finish 8)

The MR Chrome finishes make me spend all my time polishing out finger prints :D

I've been busy preparing my Graflexs for the new sound systems, but I am going
to take picts of my entire collection soon and this Saber will get plenty of Picts
taken of it. ;D

Thanks again for such a well done Saber Chen.

P.S.
I know what you mean about the feeling of having satisfied customers :)

The reactions i get from My Graflex customers are what keep me doing them
because they make people happy and their enthusiasim for the quality I put in
to the Graflex Conversions is always appreciated.
