Thoughts on MR Vader ROTJ Lightsaber?

[cayman shen]

I just got this after hunting high and low for it for ages. It's a strange little beast. Since they didn't weather it, I assumed they idealized it as well, but they didn't. Or rather, they idealized some things, but not others. For instance, the rod is cut evenly, but the allen bolts are not spaced symmetrically. That's odd. If I wasn't a prop nut and I got this, I'd wonder what the hell was up with those bolts. But a mega-collector who would get whey they're that way would want it weathered, presumeably. Looks like they tried to please the middle and ended up pleasing nobody.

What are your thoughts, MR ROTJ LE owners?

I'd say the most important thing to note is the mislabeling of this saber's name.
This was before the discovery of Vader's true hero ROTJ saber.

I think we sould call it the Vader Archive Saber.

I don't think that's odd. The rod on the saber was hacked off with a saw. I wouldn't expect them to replicate that.

I just think it's strange that certain details are idealized and others are not.
