I really cannot say. Last time, with the DS2V2, my stock sold out in about 6 hours. I don't know if that will happen again as it's hard to gauge the interest in this version of Luke's saber vs the V2
Luke's Lightsaber Mando series finale.
- Thread starter Anakin Starkiller
- Start date
I know I am in for one again. How many are in this run?
Less than the DS2V2.
And away we go... The Rescuer | Stars' End
Chris did a comparison of my new Rescuer kit set against a Rylo reveal in his collection.
Thought you guys might be interested in seeing how they stack up.
!!! To be clear. I don't own a Rylo. My measurements for this run were based on scaling from photos.

Unbelievably close!! Only difference i see is in the grenade ring width...almost like the belt hanger from Mando season 2 vs TBOB belt hanger...you nailed the belt hanger from TBOB. The look is perfect

I thought it was already disproven that the one used as a belt hanger in Mando S2 was not a Rylo.
Well... you guys like to grind your gears but i know it was not a rylo nor has rylo stepped up to say yay or nay.

I was merely making an observation...I believe Anakin Starkiller hit a home run on his that (To me) looks more like the belt hanger in TBOB. (To me) the belt hangar in Mando season 2 looks unbelievably close to a Rylo. I think it was Bryan Rogers comparison pics on pg. 4 of this thread or around there make that abundantly clear but i'm a getting oldern and my eyesight is starting to wane...lol. Obviously, you who worked on the show or any affiliation with it have the inside knowledge. Anyways, it doesn't matter to me at all...I'm very pleased at what AS has brought to this and his hilt looks fantastic... Can't wait to work on it.
I'm sorry guys, i want to make clear that i am not taking shots at you for grinding your gears. With out all the grinding we would not have some of the amazing discoveries you guys come up with here.

I was just confused the reason why it was being compared to a Rylo.

no apologies needed...we know you have class and are a pro...maybe in the back of all our minds is" uh-oh...we're about ready to rehash the previous 42 pages of this thread all over again...lol. I was making sure that i was communicating properly without trying to state a fact when it was my perception.
I mean, I understand the comparisons. Other than situations where an artist creates something from zero influence, many prop designs share details with things created before, so it’s safe to say there probably was some design influence. The only place these large control box details or long emitter sections ever appear are in custom designs before mando or the sequels, unless it’s just a coincidence
Thank you coolhanluked for guiding us with the details you can share. It’s wild to hear that those teams were able to machine so many things from scratch

Because, I thought that seeing the similarities and differences between the two models would interest the community here.

I love that the belt hanger and stunt look so different and that you provided both looks to the community...just awesome!!

Has anyone ever discussed the switch on the side of the control box being painted metal (at least on the belt hanger)?

to me...and i stress (to me) the buttons "looked" like weathered aluminum...In the earlier portion of the thread i asked Anakin Starkiller if the Rylo had metal buttons or not in which he said the Rylo had aluminum buttons, if i'm not mistaken. To answer your question, it has been discussed. But as we all know, looks can be deceiving and i trust the experts involved made the right decisions with the Intel they had before venturing further with the project.
