Title: Palpatine lightsabers
Post by: Xanatos on July 03, 2006, 06:47:16 AM

If I'm not mistaken, Palpatine had two different lightsabers. One he lost, when was dueling with Windu.
Can anyone post pics of these lightsabers?

He has some pictures under the Darth Sidious section of both. Basically the same lightsaber with different coloring.

I agree, the black is totally awesome - I wish that MR would make a Sidious FX saber, then I'd buy a couple and customize one to be black.

I'd totally get the black one.. Then i'd be able to do more of the  like throwing the sabe down the sleeve ... i'm not bad with my anakin.

They are the same size, and why does everyone like that non-matching black even though it's people's opinion, I think its ugly

Title: Re: Palpatine lightsabers
Post by: ryanlb on July 06, 2006, 01:27:41 PM

I like both - the gold one is much more classy, and seems to fit Palpatine's character more, but I like the high contrast of the black one.

Title: Re: Palpatine lightsabers
Post by: Scarey on July 06, 2006, 01:28:31 PM

its got that diffrent style / look

i'd take obi wans TPM before any sabe r though

the black looks more evil

Title: Re: Palpatine lightsabers
Post by: djforce on July 06, 2006, 01:34:05 PM

My favorite color is black but it doesn't fit the saber, I say make the saber black and it would match better and they could make Maul's black too, that would look menacing especially to go with Maul :o :o :o

are there any character who use a black (hilt) lightsaber? i dont think there are. now if i was to construct my own lightsaber.....i would have a black graflex style hilt w/ a yellow blade. NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE

Title: Re: Palpatine lightsabers
Post by: Scarey on July 06, 2006, 07:17:27 PM

Vaders is Black and Silver .. same with Quigons I think Qui Gon and vader are the most Black

Title: Re: Palpatine lightsabers
Post by: Knuckle01 on July 06, 2006, 08:01:27 PM

i was thinking something along the lines of an all black hilt....maybe a flat black instead of a shiny black

Title: Re: Palpatine lightsabers
Post by: Xanatos on July 06, 2006, 08:09:26 PM

Count Dooku's lightsaber hilt was black too. And Quinlan Vos saber hilt design is very similar to Qiu-Gon's hilt:

Title: Re: Palpatine lightsabers
Post by: Xanatos on July 06, 2006, 08:42:23 PM

Well, me too of course. :D
I just was saying, that Vos took Qui-gon design for his hilt. ;D

Yellow sabers are the worst of them all

What's wrong with them?

Title: Re: Palpatine lightsabers
Post by: djforce on July 07, 2006, 10:35:40 AM

it doesn't seem jedi or sith, and yellows an ugly color, I like a sith's saber with red or black and their hilts are unique

Last I checked it lookes like Vou's saber was kina a riped off version of Obi's TPM

I actually read that obi wan based his saber design of off Vou's saber.  Can somebody verify this?

Yellow is one of the better colors in my opinion. It displays a different color other than red. I also like orange. (I dont want to sound like i'm starting a fight) ;)

having it seem that everything else is based off Movie Visuals I'd say  mine was correct.

Let us not forget .. we dont see Vous's lightsaber in the movies now do we?

I agree, but yellow saber blades are looking better and better to me.  I might get an amber LED for one of my Vader luxeons.
