And then the front saber piece lights up a kinda hot pinkish while the rear saber blade stays a dull red/orange.
I'm not sure if the delay is common with every piece or not, and the colors are weird but not too much of an eyesore. I'm just worried that this might be signaling a dying (what?) bulb or weak wiring system in the statue itself.
Should I ask for a replacement?

Mine has a 1-2 second delay before lighting up, and is at full brightness about 2 seconds later. But both ends of the saber have the same color, if yours do not then I'd definitely ask for a replacement.
Email Sideshow and ask them about the delay and the color difference. The latter is definitely an issue IMO. Good luck.

there was no color difference but these were definitely slow starting, like they had to warm up or something. i actually thought the ex hand was broken but i left the switch on for a few seconds and it lit up

Sideshow probably went cheap on the Kyber crystals.

Bought it a few years back for the original EPI Maul. MYC (over at the Freaks) is making a new, more accurate one and building an interest list.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

One last thing I noticed =)
Did anyone else get a stumpy horn on his head? Mines fully painted and shaded properly, but it isn't pointy like the other horns. Is it supposed to look like this?
