Favourite lightsaber show-off thread

[ob1al]

Because we haven't seen that many lightsaber pics here in a while...

What's the favourite saber in your collection and why?

Pics would be good.

Mine's probably still my original Graflex with real Exactra bubbles:

I've built and owned many others, but the simple design and symbolism of the first ever saber seen in SW still captures my imagination - very closely followed by my Obi-Wan ANH.

So what's yours?

My weathered Roman's Empire Obi edges out my hybrid version by just a pinch

this should be an interesting thread...thanks for posting it

 

[Mados]

Can't pick which one I like more:
Love the design of this one:

The weapon of an icon, signed by the man himself.

Does this only include the movie sabers or can you post pics of your home made saber? anyway, here are a few pics of my home made saber, that i did on many graveyard shifts at work on the lathe, the clamp is a real graflex and it was bought from a member here, the saber is made up of turned aluminum shaft and the hand grip is knurled and there is stainless pipe and more turne aluminum and a brass pommel and a brass emitter end with a back cut.
i know that it isnt very correct for a saber but i had fun turning it on a lathe.

For me its a cross between my weathered Obi ANH saber and my Darth Vader ROTJ saber.

I got this baby from scarfman. From left to right, it consists of Roman's sink knob, Roman's weathered booster, Romans (or was it Park's) Graflex clamp weathered with reflective tape, Blastech bubbles, Chen's stainless steel grenade replica with brass windvane and a Gavidoc emitter.

This Vader ROTJ used to be Yodaman's. Its built from a vintage Graflex with metal conversion parts... should be Kenny's, I think.

My hand machined solid steel Luke ROTJ saber.

Threads like these make me wish I had a camera. I'm very proud of my Luke V2 and I can't show the blasted thing off.

 

[Kylash]

Probably my ANH weathered Obi once its finished :lol

or my touch activated converted FX ESB Vader.

 

[amish]

Damn, very nice stuff everyone.. I do not have my pictures handy, but my favorite is my Stormpath Qui-gon.

 

[firebladejedi]

I like my rotj vader as its made from a real graflex and metal parts kit, but my newly finished luke esb so far looks the nicest. But i think my favourite will be my anh obi wan, if i ever get the parts to finish it....

 

[bigbaddaddyvader]

This is by far my favourite saber.This is my Norman Harrison made Luke Skywalker ROTJ Hero Lightsaber.Such a beautiful saber and was always one of my favourites and to have one made and machined by the man who made the original is just fantastic:

For sentimental reasons my Graflex ANH is still may fav, but I've also taken quite a shine to this lately:

There's some superb sabers in this thread.

Here's a couple of my best efforts, Obi-wan and Vader ANH cut-aways.
I know you guys have seen these before, but I thought I'd post them all the same.
