star wars return of the jedi

Hey all. So a few years back, I scored a Master Replicas Luke ROTJ Force Fx saber in a trade for some leather work. This saber had been converted to an in-hilt luxeon well before I got it, and it had seen some fair damage, I’d pulled it apart to repair some solder joints a few times, and was...

Just added a review of the Clothears Boushh helmet, which arrived a few days ago... As many of you know there aren't a lot of choices out there for Boushh, and Altmanns aside, no Licensed companies have produced one yet. I think they've done a really amazing job with this. I ordered it in May...

Hey guys! I'm taking a tremendous shot in the dark as I doubt that many people with one of Dan's V2s wants to part with it, but I would absolutely love to purchase one! I would prefer to purchase one from his latest 'Builder's Kit' run as it's been a long-time dream of mine to make a V2/V3...

Today I took a break from my Falcon and Cloud City Diorama to put this guy together. I should have it done later tonight..

I thought since @halliwax has a thread going for working on the Anakin Starkiller V2. I'd get a KR Sabers V2 thread going. So if anyone wants to share their building/modifying/weathering progress/hints/tips/tricks feel free to put them here! I'll start! I just got the anodizing removed off...

Hey everyone, check out our rendition of the Luke Hero saber. Hope you like it! It's my favorite to date. Watch the video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3CPwUFIW9M&t=158s Fully installed with the following specs Fully installed with lights and sound. - Tricree RGB color changing...

Hi guys! For some time I have been working on learning everything I possible can about the Royal Guard's 'Force Pike' prop made for Return of the Jedi with the goal of having a small run of them machined from steel and aluminum. I am extremely pleased to be at the point in this project where I...

Hi Looking for a 1/24 TIE Fighter to go with my X and Y Wings.

Here's our full mod process of a Nerf Triad EX3 into a Star Wars Biker Scout Blaster! https://youtu.be/Ilc7ETBGYQ8

Hi all. Am still very new to the forum but have been an admirer for years. Anyways, I am looking to semi scratchbuild my own V2 saber from aluminum on a lathe and though I have gathered a ton of info from various sources there is still a lot I don't know about the saber. so If you could lend a...

This is my main project since months: The original studio model looks a little arbitrary and boring around the porthole. My main features will be the same, but I'll work with more holes, layers and trenches, and closer to a given grid. Interior mockup with some raw pipes and a Tie...

This one started as a "project in project" for a bigger scene, but turned out to be a nice separate display. Started with an 8 mm decoration bead and some plastic. (Cutting mat grid is 10mm) Guns too fat - I removed them later. The cockpit hole was carefully drilled by hand. Several...

Ok, so I started in on Amanaman and realized it was a ridiculous costume for a human to attempt to wear (and be accurate) so I shifted my attention to Squid Head - the Kenner action figure version. He's goofy, very identifiable, and kinda humanoid so that's all I needed! It's also been an...

hello I am becoming active on here again I never posted the metal darth vader helmet on here and I think you guys will like it. here is the link to the build video https://youtu.be/PPUrKVl-MXU

I'm planning on joining the 501st sometime soon as a Royal Guard and obviously need a force pike. There seems to be fairly little around in terms of concrete parts/measurements of the original 'hero' prop. I found a thread comparing a picture of force pike blueprints from Star Wars: The...

I am attempting my very first blaster build and wanted to build the DL-18 for a friend's Birthday gift. My intention is to machine a skeletal frame out of aluminum and attach 3D printed TPU (Thermoplastic-Polyurethane) as the exterior body of the blaster. The scope and barrel will also be made...

Hey guys, I've been a lurker here for a while with not much to contribute but early this year I bought myself a 3d printer. I've been having heaps of fun printing out my favourite Star Wars props and recently I've been teaching myself how to model. Thought I would start a thread and show off...

Edited:08/17/18 - More readings about my findings and experiences (and a little more photos) are logged here, in my build and research thread. The Roots: So this idea grew from my V2 Mod thread where I was experimenting with sand casting and, what started as a "living history" idea, had...

Hello. I'm looking to buy a ROTJ Thermal Detonator replica. I'm a big Star Wars fan and its hard looking for a screen accurate prop, but not pay a monstrous amount of money on the Master Replica versions. The detonator must have lights and sounds activated by the top sliding detonator switch...

Anyone know where I can find some?

Hello all! I finally made an account and thought I'd share my builds. When I was a child I saw someone in a book store with Luke RoTJ saber and I wanted one so bad it hurt. Fast forward twenty years and I'm in my shop when I have an epiphany. I am a machinist. I could fulfill my childhood...

EDIT 8/15/18: Considering I've gone quite deep into the rabbit hole since posting this thread, and learning quite a lot along the way, I'd thought I'd update this but keep the original posts for posterity sake. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ If it can be called a "mod."...

I know both of these are hard to come by, but if there’s somebody who wants to trade/ sell. Please PM me. I would prefer a trade, but something could probably be reached. Thanks for your time, Matthew

[Edit: Detailed photo's of lightsaber below] So here I was, standing in a random nerd shop, when all of a sudden my eye falls on this magnificent Lightsaber. It is the first one for me I have bought after drooling on a lot of threads on authentic replica's on theRPF. The shop owner told me this...

A long time ago... in fact in January 2017, I started a Luke ROTJ V2 3D model. I had my 3D printer just a few months earlier and I wanted to give a shot to the V2. Before I went on this project, lightsabers & blasters didn't interest... I was just a stormtrooper helmet lover. I played a lot...
