.45 Scaled Replica Light Sabers - Page 3

I finally got around to getting a couple of sabers. I've got the Vader Ep IV and think it's incredible-I love it.

Also picked up the Darth Sidious saber. It's nice but not as visually interesting as the Vader saber. Also, coloring is alot darker than the advertisments-I was surprised when I first saw it. Plus, it's so much smaller than the Vader saber. Are Sidious's hands small?

I collect the mini sabers. I like them a lot because they're cheap and they don't take up much space. There are still a few MR sabers that haven't gotten the .45 scale treatment yet. I'm hoping we'll see those made next year.

Mini blasters are coming next year, too.

I was trying to collect them all (including the variants), but I got tired of them and decided to only keep 3 (Luke ROTJ, Obi Weathered, Vader ANH) and ebay'd the rest this weekend. I think I will stick to a few choice full-size ones instead.

If you are going to collect the mini sabers do yourself a favor and pick up a few of the trio display cases. They are a great way to show your sabers and only $20 a piece. here's one of mine with the acrylic cover off:

Yeah, these are VERY COOL! I have Obi-Wan and Mace Windu's from AOTC. Darth Vader's from ROTJ, and Darth Tyranus saber from AOTC. I'm still looking for Yoda's and Palpatine's from ROTS.....

Someone set me straight on this:

Is there a Luke ANH saber? If so, is the same as the Anakin
ROTS saber ( should be the same one correct? )

And,

Is the weathered Obi Wan saber the same as the Obi Wan ROTS saber ( just weathered to reflect age )?

I have a couple myself:

Obi-wan kenobi SW ep3
Anakin Skywalker ep3
Yoda -2005 SDCC Exclusive Gold Variant

I've got a question for you guys:

So you know I own the Obi wan SW ep 3 scaled replica and I can buy a Obi-Wan light saber 'As first build by' version. They kinda look the same and I'm wondering if it worth buying? It cost 35$ with mail.

Doc Sonic · 11-23-2005, 07:44 PM

I was wonderin' the same thing myself. It sure looks the same and that's why it prevented me from bidding on one on the 'bay.

BTW what type of glass displays are those that you're using?

Yeah, The only difference I could see was that the base says "first build". I think i'm going to leave this one and get the dooku 01.45 replica.

Nothing special. The DETOLF display from IKEA. A lot of people here use them.
