Is anyone here interested in SW Legacy Props

[Anakin Starkiller]

So, I am an avid reader of the Star Wars Legacy comics, and I was wondering if there is any interest here for Star Wars Legacy prop.

I was thinking maybe of doing a couple small runs over the summer of my interpretation of some key character props. A couple ideas that I have been bouncing around are

Kol's lightsaber

Cade's lightsaber

Legacy era Stormtrooper blaster

Imperial Knights lightsaber

A Darth Krayt/OWK dueling set. (In the comics, OWK's lighstaber looks sort of like a hybrid of his ROTS and ANH saber, so I thought it might be cool to make one as such.

If you have any other ideas, I'd like to hear them.

This is in no way a for sale thread or anything like that, just looking to poke around and see if there's any interest.

Yes indeed, if I could afford them I would.:thumbsup
I would love to have more EU props, especially sabers. This series is really good (and I have only read the first hardback collected edition)

First off, p0sitr0nic, thanks for those pics you sent me the other day, sorry I forgot to say thank you earlier.

Now, I did a quick render of a Kol lightsaber design.

It is a pretty simple looking saber in the books. But I think that with a little weathering (courtesy of aluminum black and a hammer :lol). It could look pretty cool. Remember when Cade sees it in the keeping of Darth Krayt.

Anyways, here are some pictures comparing it with a shot from the comics. This model would require a set of blast-tech grips,


Let me know what you think

But lot of sculptors could. I think it could be a fun project.

That has been my dream saber sincei saw it in the "Tales of the old jedi" comic, (or whatever it was called) it was set 5k years before ANH, 1000 years before KOTOR.
Ideally a resin copy would mold the crystal first from clear resin, then stick it in the mold and finish the cast. >.> Ive given it a lot of thought, but im no sculptor.

Given that I'm into Cade costuming, I'd definitely like to see what you have in mind for his lightsaber. Though I would want to see it with an LED and made battle ready.

thanks Jax...so, are the Troopers supposed to be the same and thats just bad artwork or are the differences very subtle?

Now that's something I'd love to see made. :eek

I believe the same. Comic artist have always seem to run into trouble drawing Stormtrooper helmets - sometimes to big degrees, these actually are better then several that have appeared over the years. I am surprised the armor is the same, but I have not read the issue so I don't know if there is a reason for it. Not that there would not be lots of spare and left over armor around even after all these years.

I'm not sure about the design IN the comics, but the one that appears on the cover of an early issue, and then the compiled graphic novel, would be interesting. It looks to be an Obi TPM/AOTC emitter combined with a OT style grip section. I've considered building one myself (hardware, of course), but just haven't gotten around to it.

Unfortunately, no. But a Google image search, or Amazon.com could turn something up.

The way I envision this one is as an 11inch tube with an OWK ep1 type emitter, OT style grips and a graflex style button (perhapses with the whole bezel colored red) and glass eye.
