Hi guys,
this is my latest creation. A cross-over between 2 hobbies: star wars and 80ies toys and cartoons.
I decided to use my know how in lightsaberbuilding to build a replica of Thundarr The Barbarians' Sun Sword as seen in the Hanna Barberra Cartoon series back in the 80ies.

Love it! Nicely done.

I keep meaning to buy the whole series on DVD but never get around to it. This is one underrated show from the 80's.
 
Loved Thundar. Would like to show my kids that show.

Total remake/reboot potential.

That is a nicely machined hilt, well done bit of metalworking for sure.

Dope
