EFX Obi Wan Reveal (Help me EFX, your my only hope)

Please tell me the below will stay "As First Built" and you will ditch the black collar on the neck?????

At the very least make it brass so I can strip it and make it look right.


Otherwise looking very awesome. Just when I thought I was done with sabers.

I have not been able to find any other C6 prop pics here either???????

Yep, that's where I found the pic at the top.

There seems to be no posting or discussion here at RPF about C6 props other than a little on the Biker Scout helmet????????

I like it so far but to drop $500 it needs to be more. A lot more. I hope this is just the beginning.

I love efx and the Jedi Luke saber was ace but I just can't get into this one and you know how big of an Obi ANH fanatic I am.

I wish efx was doing cut-away displays instead of 'reveal' sabers.

Most likely because those items were shown last month at SDCC. So they have already been discussed or continue to be discuseed on those threads.

If you do a search with "SDCC efx" and search "entire post" you will get a lot of topics (either new ones that were created based on items seen at SDCC, like the new reveal sabers or continued on from old discussion likethe TIE fighter).

Maybe for the same reason it does not appeal to me. It is more of a beauty collectible display piece than an attempt at a prop replica display piece. While I can understand the idea of Luke ROTJ saber being pretty as it represented an "as first built" look. But the problem I have with the new reveal ANH Obi an Luke is that in my mind those lightsabers never looked that good in that form. The way it plays out for me is that the sabers started off their life as the versions seen in ROTS. However, 20 years later (for some reason) Obi wan had to modify/upgrade those lightsabers and the result was the sabers we see in ANH.

This is just my personal opinion. Other than that, they look like nice pieces. I have always been happy with the items i get from efx. Personally for me, the reveal aspect is not something I feel the need to have and to me is not worth the added price. I will admit I do have the Luke ROTJ reveal. I only got it because redfordfilm.com had a 20% off sale and I picked it up for $100 off the price and free shipping. I also admit that the open activation box (as seen in the deleted scene) was cool for that reason and the ability for the crystal to glow was also very cool. But the reveal sections for the grip and the emitter did not appeal to me and I do not even open up those sections on my display. Remember, just my opinion.

I suppose. The only new stuff I found was some updated stuff on the Scout trooper helmet.

I was also happy to finally see something on the RMQ Stormy helmet.

WOW, that is awesome!! Those looking great together
