Original ESB/ROTJ stunt Vader saber going up for auction...

[Halliwax]

I have to go watch tested video again, the v200 is 14” wide.. might be that one

 

[Halliwax]

I’m willing to bet it’s the v200 14” x 10” ID

 

[Halliwax]

Another thing that seals it for me is the depth, 5.5” on the v200 vs the 4.5” on the v100

So…I‘m really interested in an accurate replica of that saber. Anyone planning a run?

I won’t be tackling this until I have a few questions answered

I may hold out on any personal build until we see a small B port MPP run from Roman and a kit similar to Roy’s DV6 kit…

Patreon member Moth just embarrassed me, top is the case, middle is the v200, bottom is the v100. V100 is missing the fins at the handle

That’s my biggest issue… gotta twist Roman’s arm, let’s all pig pile Roman!

For me I really want to see the rest of that X-ray. Honestly, I’ve got all the screws settled 100% except for whatever holds the tang.

Moreso than the graflex because the MPP is one single tube.

I‘m quite confident that inner aluminum core goes down to the bottom of the flash tube.

Thank you. It would make sense, though that’s MUCH more than the pipe stunt which is just 3-4 inches.

Do you have any opinions on the graflex one? I’ve gotten the impression the main core goes about to the start of the clamp, and maybe a longer piece was added

 

[PoopaPapaPalps]

My question is if the second lower core of the MPP runs the length of the tube, do the the grip screws also screw into it? The MPP tube is very thin, I doubt it's enough to secure the grips to it alone. Also, no one's remarked about how heavy it would be if it were nearly completely solid.

The bulb release and upper screws are also tapped directly into the upper core.

 

[vadermania]

Well, the question is whether the screws that secure the T-tracks to the flash are self-tightening sheet metal screws or metric screws that screw through the the T-tracks into the aluminum core.
If I remember correctly, the DV 6 was surprisingly heavy when I handled it in the archives.
Neither Brandon or Adam mentioned that the „new“ Vader stunt saber was heavy when they handled it.

Not the actual auction. That’s next month in LA I think. They were at the London event. The hilt and other props is on a short tour before the auction. I wish I could have gone but I was stuck at work all day

My mistake, I got too excited when I saw their post
