I believe this is the saber from the launch bay:
It doesn’t look exactly like the screen used one.

Interesting that this onscreen shot shows a thin but distinct separation between the leather pieces on this side, while some other depictions have them right up against each other or even overlapping. I can see metal in the space between, and the tab is laying flat. It's probably the most prominent detail shot of the saber in the movie so I consider it noteworthy in regards to screen accuracy.
I think it looks pretty good that way to me, with the slight separation and everything laying flat.
(The Galaxy's Edge legacy version drives me nuts because the tabs stick out so much while overlapping, which isn't right at all.)

Eh, unfortunately they don't match between the visual dictionary and the displayed saber, so one of the different ones made

Meh, all 3 of these sabers are different props. These "weld marks" are the easiest tell between them, aside from the leather gap thing going on more prominently with the end-scene saber

Is the new clamp card the same width and thickness of a usual clamp card, just cut shorter? Or does it actually have new dimensions altogether? Is it any wider or thicker?
Looks like they covered the D ring holes with a cap or disk...New photo, courtesy of Jamie. Check out that red button for all those “not romans” skeptics

Not a fan of the belt clip grip thing. my guess is aluminum ..... maybe something stronger, maybe steel. nope hmmmm....
It is amazing how close they did get the weathering though!

I would have to believe some kind of steel to stand up to the rigors of filming or else it get bent frequently I imagine. Otherwise, a really strong plastic, like what is used for most personal military equipment

Don't know if these have been posted yet. Here is some leaked concept art of the Fixflex from The Art of The Rise of Skywalker:

Neat. While I'm not the biggest fan of the short clamp card on the final movie version, overall I think it's a nicer package than the concepts here. But it's fun to see these.
I see they played with the idea of making the blue crystal a little unstable after healing. Not full Kylo but a little extra whispy at the emitter. I would have loved that in the movie, should have done it.
