I may be opening up a can of worms here, and excuse me for my ignorance, but what hilts did this flash become?

 

[Sluis Van Shipyards]

I don't know much about it, but I think it was used on the prototype Boba Fett blaster as the barrel.

 

[schrodinger555]

Yes it's used for bobas blaster! More importantly the flash has chromed bunny ears and a chromed slotted screw in the front. It also has a folmer lever. No current replicas I'm aware of for the ANH hero include a chromed ear/screw and only recently has anyone started making replica folmer levers. So even if you aren't into the telegraph itself, the new production items that it entails are very exciting for anyone looking to make an even more accurate replica ANH hero saber.

 

[schrodinger555]

As well as the profile of the brass pins, they are rounded at the tip differently than the standard available folmer pins are. So if Roman copied all the details just right, this telegraph will be an important addition to the hobby even to people who don't really care about telegraphs

Roman is the man! We need to push him to make Folmer Inc bottoms next!

 

[James Kenobi 1138]

I’m probably going to get one just for posterity. I technically own one, but I gutted it and removed the telegraph button to make a DV6 stunt saber.

 

[Ridire Firean]

Hey Romans Empire ! Would it be possible to order a Telegraph with a Bright Satin No-Logo Clamp with a Folmer Lever? I'd like to etch my own "GRAFLEX" in Aurebesh on it to help me distinguish it from my real GRAFLEX Clamps.

Hmmm might need to pick one up for Boba Fett projects...
