I've had her since August-ish, and yeah I've dueled with her pretty hard, but I didn't think the blade jack and battery compartment would just pop out like that. From what I've heard from everyone about parksabers I figured I'd destroy the blade before anything else. Anyways, I was just surprised about it, and now I'm not sure what to do I have a few options I'm looking at, I eat the 100 bucks, which will take me time to save up, and even more time to wait on Jeff to get my saber back to me. Jeff's great, but the man is sooooo busy. Next option, I save up a little less money, and get a carbon fiber blade for this one, and turn her into a full vfx saber. Not as flashy, but definitely cheaper... What I want to do despite my monetary troubles, is fix this one up, put her on display, and get a dueling hilt... Problem is I just don't know what to get, I love the design of my saber, and I don't know anyone who could do the work the way I want it done. I suppose I could send the saber to a smith tell them what tweaks I want on the hilt and have it done that way, but we're talking big amounts of cash here probably. So I just don't know, I suppose I'll start saving up and figure out what I want to do.
