"Absolution" by Space Junk Sabers
Just got this hilt back from my installer! This is based off Ezra Bridger's hilt. The hilt is made from a Canon Y vintage flash and clamp. Really turned out amazing! Had a few issues with it getting the electronics working. Sent it back to my installer and get fixed it! I always liked Eza's style of the hilt just seemed a bit plain to me.. This hilt i couldn't pass up on!
I was trying to daydream, but my mind kept wandering.

Really great acquisition by the „artist“. Did you ever think about to try to build one by your own? Did you see parts of cameras or anything else you would definitely use for one?

Thank you! I wish i could, Space Junk Sabers really does an amazing job. I have 2 more coming from him. Canon Y and X flash parts are really desired parts. The X canon part is really rare. Maybe when i retire, could dab into building or installing someday...

Wonderful Sabers Twin Suns
Just got in hand finally, Wonderful Sabers Twin Suns. First I sent these off to a powder coater to be similar to Ahsokas on Mando. Was not easy getting all the fine details to complete the look of the hilts. I also, discovered that he does display boxes as well and added that on.
Then he sent these off to my installer and he did a fantastic job on the install made sure everything was how i wanted it. I really hate 1 button setups on proffie v2, asked if he could come up a way of making it a 2 button hilt. Can see the brass tactile.
Got it in last night and spent the better part of the day trying to find D-Rings locally. In advance i bought some from Home Depot, etc but all of them are too big for the hilt. Late last night discovered there there are "sewing" D-Rings which are more of the correct shape used on hilts. Went around to too many places today to get the right ones.. Meanwhile amazon has them.. A set of 5 different kinds for (90 pieces) for 9$. Bought these blade plugs and had to cut them down as well to fit.
Still trying to figure out how i am going to display both these sets! The other set btw they are Snipx from The Pach Store.

Sideshow Collectibles Dejah Thoris PF
Got this in earlier today, was a crazy morning through afternoon running errands. Yeesh, traffic.. Feels like everyone coming out of hiding or something lately.
Anyhow SS did a fantastic on this, really glad that it is nearly spot on from the prototype. Scuplt, paint, pose all of it.. is fantastic. Amount of detail in this is pretty darn amazing. Even the art box looks amazing!
