That's great news.  I hope an updated Mace Windu is in the works for 2018 too!

Hi Korbanth. That news in itself is fantastic. I will definitely be ordering whenever the duke 2.0 becomes available.

I don't know if this is the right place but, I would LOVE to see an Anakin Graflex.... goes great with a Duke 2.0 I mean, how can you cut Dooku's head off without a Duke 2.0 and an Anakin ROTS Graflex???

PLEASE PLEASE make the Vader hilt in episode 3!!!! Never been done before! The only one you can get is the plastic Hasbro toy version. There will be so much interest for this hilt

It has. Armonfire did a small run a few years ago.

The problem I face when deciding which sabers to make is considering the popularity of a hilt. I think Vaders EP3 saber is ok, and its nice they made one that never got used, and so it was kinda silly to even make it look different, but even though I'd sell maybe 40-50 of this saber, I'd be stuck with a few hundred that I couldnt really find homes for...

my minimums now at my machine shop are 250 of each, so if they'd allow me to just make 50 of 1 item, I would but making 250 of the EP3 Vader saber would just be a disaster for me, and 50 happy people....it would lock up my funds so that I couldnt bring the ones that people really want, like Duke 2.0, MW3 2.0, or AOTC-Anakin, or even new models we dont know about coming soon....

Thats the explanation, and it does not make sense to everyone, but there is a balance when it comes to getting cool product made for the benefit of others...and for you...all

Korbanth, thanks for the explanation. It makes a ton of sense to me, and I completely understand. I guess it will stay a pipe dream for now. I definitely appreciate every run you do, and I'll definitely have my name in most of the stuff you do, and will continue to support those numbers in your runs :afro:

If you ever do get the green light for a few 50 production runs, please do consider the EP3 Vader though!! I'll grab two just for good measure.


 @ JANGO FETT - Man! I'm gonna have to look up this run you're talking about. Is there any way to stay on top of who is doing runs of what?

Hi Korbanth! I'm interested in purchasing a duke 2.0 but just wanted to ask if it would be possible to remove that "spine" that duke 1.0 had? I have a duke 1.0 and although it's a great hilt hands down the thing that bothered me most was that spine and not having 1 continuous knurled grip piece at the top. Thanks!
