Hello everyone,
After a long period of redesign and prototyping, I am now excited to announce that I am finally ready to start signing people up for my Luke ROTJ Hero saber kit.
If you're not caught up on the design process that this project has undergone, you can check out the backstory here.
www.therpf.com
And finally, here are some pictures of the finished prototype
If you're interested, you can see some comparisons showing how my new 3d model stacks up against the original prop.
If you're interested in getting in on this run, here is the place to sign up. But, please read carefully before adding your name to the list.
The saber will break down into multiple parts and will be electronics ready. It will have two emitter caps. One for FX and one for display. It will have two pommel caps, one vented and one for display.
It will come with an aluminum heatsink and will accept the standard thin wall blade from TCSS.
The saber will be machined from 6061 aluminum.
It will include Red and Green Arrows.
It will come with LEDs, and Tac Switches for the control box
It will include a Tri-ring
It will include the black side buttons, machined from delrin, and a 3d printed abs plastic sleeve that goes inside the control box and mimics the abs rails on the original.
To build the control box, you will glue the brass L-stock onto this ABS part.
Here is a 3d model of this part
The only other part that you will need to pick up is a circuit card from Slothfurnace.
I've spoken with him and he will have these cards available when the run is complete.
I the cost for the saber will be $235.00 plus shipping.
I will not accept payment until I have all the parts in hand. However, I expect that if you sign up here, you accept that you have made a solid commitment to follow through on your purchase. If you are unsure about your interest, please do not sign up.
I will leave this signup thread open for two weeks and after that, I will close the list and proceed with the run.
In order to sign up. You must post your commitment and let me know how many saber kits you want in the space below. At the end of two week, I will add up all the names and close the list.
IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY EMAILED ME, PMD ME, OR POSTED IN THE OLD THREAD ABOUT THIS SABER YOU ARE NOT SIGNED UP. YOU MUST REPLY TO THIS THREAD BELOW TO SIGN UP.
Since this is a sign up thread, please only post below to get your name on the list. If you have questions or comments about the design of manufacturing, please PM me or post in the design thread here. Anakin Starkiller's New Luke ROTJ Hero saber design thread
EDIT ON 11/13/2019
EACH KIT WILL NOW ALSO COME WITH A YUMA STYLE CONTROL BOX AND LEVER, AT NO EXTRA CHARGE.
So, if you wanted to do a Yuma build with your kit instead of the hero, you don't need to do anything, just enjoy! If you were interested in doing both, buy two kits

Anakin Starkiller's New Luke ROTJ Hero saber design thread
Hello everyone, This post has been a long time coming. About a decade ago, I did my first lightsaber run here on the RPF, releasing what was then, and I believe still is, the most accurate Luke ROTJ hero saber kit ever produced. It was the first saber to have the appropriate scale, the...
