The Rise of Skywalker: Episode IX Graflex

[Drew Baker]

The Rivets are accurate on this one but as I have mentioned previously, there are different types used on different Rey saber hilts.

Thanks for the info and closer look, Mark!

Just an observation, but if you look closely at this promo, the glass eye has the vertical striations back, instead of the flat brass rim.

Grips look plastic - you can see where one has snapped.

And chrome tape again or a plate covering the end.

Oh that’s a nice picture!! Looks like some kind of chrome cap on the end?! No more tape?!

Rounded corners on the grips, a la the old Icons replica.

Not sure – the corner/edge wear seems to be revealing some grey or silver. I'm inclined towards painted metal.

You can see the snapped fin. It’d be impressive if metal did that and if metal did do that if wouldn’t see such a clear break.

The chrome cap almost seems to make the bottom of the flash even now..

Wonder if romans off the shelf sink caps fit.. give me a few minutes

 

[PrinceZip]

It's weird, the brass pins look quite short to my eyes.
Maybe this Graflex is using some TGS parts

 

[Halliwax]

So romans sink caps don’t fit.. too small

 

[Halliwax]

Love to know how they got the scorch mark..

Chemically remove the nickel finish? Revealing the brass? Or does that look like sanding wheel marks left behind in the brass?

 

[Kylash]

Wow thats a weird circuit board... big thick piece of acrylic with the traces inside the middle of it? Or in the back? Really dont appear to be on the front surface.

Know what I love and hate, we always get these awesome photos, but they never seem good enough lol

I'm looking at the S curve on the emitter and wondering if that's Roman's. It might be the angle, but is there a chance it's a 2.0? The bend looks a little high to me.

 

[Halliwax]

The glass eye “flare” screams roman to me.

Well, it was confirmed!

Khal from KR Sabers has seen the Episode 9 Hero in person and confirms 100% it's a ROMAN PROPS Gen. 2!!!

It’s great watching you all trying to figure this stuff out

the real guys who made this are probably sitting back in their chairs and laughing at us lol

After looking at Romans 2.0 a bit more, I retract my earlier query
