I'm appreciating the design of this lightsaber the more detail I see of it. I have the Disney Store exclusive version (UK), the Black Series Force FX and I'm considering the Ultimate FX from my local TrU (for combat purposes with my son, who loves swinging around his Vader or the aforementioned DS KR). 
I'd love an all-metal version with working MHS (or similar such) parts. I'm subscribed to this thread for sure!

Ok so are you redoing the v4 bottom or is there no changes to the bottom?
I have a great idea to mod the Hasbro FX with only 3 parts.And you must not destroy it.
This is the hasbro next to the Original Herosaber..the major problem in my eyes is that the arms are too short and too thick and the ermitter is too wide:
So if somebody have the skills to print or build new longer arms a smaller ermitter you could put over the 3 new parts very easy without to destroy the originaldesign.
The ermitter would only be a smaller ring on the stock one.You would put over the new pats easy over the blades.
I made a simulation with my very low computerskills..but I think it would look a lot better with the updates.Space is enough on the saber because they used very thick material.Yellow is the line where the parts are attached to the saber body.The blue markings show that you can make the tubes smaller on this point.

What about the stupid thick body? That one is not the right size either...
You could also remove the complete upper or lower bodypart.But for that you must destroy the sword.
And this parts are made from metal..I don´t wanna upgrade that with plasticparts.
I would be happy with the other upgrades.
An FX-saber is never 100% accurate.

What is "LE"?70,50,90 %...all not accurate.So the mission is to get more %.
And who has the skills and wants that can build his own saber.
I´m waiting for a LE like metal saber of Kylo Ren.But for now the FX works for me.
3D-printed saber from this theme with LED and sound can replace Force FX one as more accurate to the "real" movie prop.
But it is only for demonstrating, not for battles. So as the force FX.
So would like to know since there is a 20% off and free shipping.......is the bottom of gabes saber safe to go with? I was wondering if there would not be any changes on them I could have them printed and save some money!!!

LE stands for Limited Edition.Like the old high end metal sabers from MR and EFX.On this sabers I want it 99% accurate.
But the FX-swords are toys for me so it must not be so much exact in detail...it would be nice if Hasbro would do...but I don´t wanna remove the metalparts on my saber.So I´m looking for ways to make it a little bit more accurate without destroying the Originalsaber.
Its a cooler handling with the heavy metal grip.

My Plan:
I'm gonna take apart the Hasbro ForceFX version (because it is too bulky) and build it in Guabe's hilt. The hilt gonna be metal... one of my friend is gonna make it, he is a cnc master.
I need the Hasbro sound-light because i think it is accurate. I like the fliker on the side and main blade... also it is a little electronical noize in the humm.
Guabe's hilt is very accurate as well so that is why i am gonna combine the two. (i got he hasbro for half price)

Can someone provide me with a link to the latest version of this model? I can't seem to find it in the thread anymore.

No price yet. I am waiting for Guabe's latest version than i start the project.
I´m in for a CNC made new metal body or longer metal arms.
Oh that could be interesting:
