2022 Kenobi Series Lightsaber Screen Caps SPOILERS

Someone recently took photos of some costumes on display in Japan. They got a good shot of the MR graflex on Anakin’s belt.

Sharing this here. So when I forget where I found it in the future I can come back here
 
You covertec guys, does that covertec belt mount look like a conventional one you buy on eBay?

I need to get my hands on one to scale the location of the covertec
 
In the fight scene in Ep3, pay close attention to the saber lockups. In the first one or two, you'll see a thin-neck stunt saber. Then in one shot, a thicker neck LOOONG hilt, which Ewan is holding in a reverse grip. I modeled the saber using some private reference, it looks like this:

I've been sitting on this model for quite a while. I made some 3D prints to test it out in person, it's very odd. Not sure if anyone would actually want this in person, probably made at Ewan's request to have more area to hold? Even the pommel is stretched out.
I seen today HeroProp listed a few sabers and Knowing that you were doing this model I thought I'd come here straight away to post this in case you want the better reference or you want to own it Obi-Wan Kenobi (2022) - Obi-Wan's Practice Saber

Looks like I was pretty close ;-)
 
So excited!! :0 Is it looking this this may still incorporate 2 spring load plungers?
I actually have another plan, which is to situate all the control (on/off button, recharge port) under the faux control box rectangle--which will be removable and held in place with magnets. Once you install the pixel core, you'll activate the saber by removing the control box rectangle door and you operate to buttons hidden underneith. When you're done playing, you'll replace the control box rectangle door and hide everything away, making the saber look just like it did on set (where the electronics were controlled remotely rather than by Ewan's fingers). This way, the saber can accept any number of pixel or rgb cores, whether it's TXQ, Damian Sabers, or whatever.

Well, he came right out and called it 'playing.' Points for directness.
