Efx Newsletter- New Resin Stunt Lightsabers (merged)

[James Kenobi 1138]

I did a search and didn't see another Thread about this yet.

Got the new Efx newsletter. Resin Stunt Lightsabers sound pretty cool. If the price is right I hope to add some to my collection.

I see those sabers being a big seller if what we are seeing in the pic is the actual piece.

It seems like a great solution to the problem of how do you sell the same old sabers again and again.

Make them accurate, plastic, and affordable.

Id like to know if theyd do a line of unmetallized resin sabers, just plain resin, for cheap.

I doubt it. These are marketed at costumers, the ComicCon and Dragon-con/501st crowd, not DIY guys like us. Most costumers do fantastic on the cloth parts of the costume, not as well on the prop parts.

I bet these will be showroom ready. I'm excited about these, I hope they look good.

Those look pretty good! I always wanted Airfix/MPC/ERTL to do a line of saber model kits with vaccuum metalised finish.....this could possibly be the answer....if the price is right.

These will be chromed resin, and IIRC will be in the $100 range :thumbsup

Great for costuming at conventions and other events. But for my saber collection I'd rather have a 'real' saber, out of aluminium or steel.
I'm sure this will be a hit.

Crazy as that sounds, I could swear I've heard that before. Oh, yeah...

If they make the Obi ANH, I'm in.

Yeah, there's a museumreplicas.com thread somewhere where these were hashed over. I started yelling loudly to get people to post that they want more. Chromed resin? A Dooku, Windu, or OB TPM would be nice...

OT sabers. That would be good.

Yeah I had a look at these on museumreplicas website a few weeks back. I love the copper chrome on the neck of the ROTJ Luke, I hope they go with that colour on the final production piece.

There is some other cool SW stuff on there as well like replica Obi & Ani Belts with pouches and food capsules.

Don't expect them to be accurate to the production pieces, i'm sure they'll be idealized.

Where can anyone get these resin sabers now 'a days?

Re: Efx Newsletter- New Resin Stunt Lightsabers

Heck with the plastic sabers, hows about those models? Is there a thread already about the new scaled down models they will be offering?
