The time has come to finally send these babies out in to the world!
What we have here are nine, solid aluminium ISYHCANL hilts. Milled from an exact 3D model of the original prop:
The ISYHCANL was a brief incarnation of Luke's Hero saber. It started life as the "Yuma", but was modified for the close up shot of Vader holding it in his hands on Endor in ROTJ. This was prior to the filming of the "Cave Scene" and before the prop was modified to include flashing triangular LEDs and sliding circuit strip reveal.
The resulting design of the ISYHCANL is simpler and cleaner than the that of the official "hero".
The 3D model was painstakingly created using various shots of the original prop and scaled based on comparative shots of the prop alongside others (the dimensions of which are more widely accepted). After the basic model had been created, and some of the more important measurements were locked down, the model went through a series of fine tuning checks, where it was aligned with close up shots of the actual prop, and adjusted, to ensure absolute precision.
The finished prop includes a screen-accurate blue and copper Slothfurnace board, with chemically aged brass rails.
The neck is painted aluminium (as per the original prop). A combination of different paints were used to match the colour used on the original prop.
The "switch" is hand made from black acrylic.
The Tri-ring is hand made from stainless steel rod (also precisely measured and recreated to match the original prop). The stainless steel rod was sanded and heat treated to look like aged mild steel.
A build thread for this project can be seen HERE. I highly recommend that you take a look, to appreciate the effort that has gone in to making this as screen accurate as possible.
The Price for each finished prop is £230 plus postage (UK £15/International £25)
I'm going to be selling these on a first come/first served basis, based on either comments in the thread or via direct message. If they do all sell before you get a chance to purchase one, I'll be posting an interest thread in the coming weeks for a possible further run in kit form (Either ISYHCANL or the "Cave" hero).
If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me, or comment bellow.
Cheers,
Dave
