Heh.... it’s a spoiler but it’s one of those spoilers that I wish I didn’t hear because I don’t want this in the movie... plus it’s ANOTHER change to prop...
Place it with spoiler tags please! It can't be that difficult

Thanks for those pictures. I'm still not sold on the black paint on the emitter.
I think the V3 may have been refurbished, possibly only partially. The reason I believe this, is the clean "booster" section, the bright copper paint on the neck. Whereas the V2 has remnants of black paint on it, and the copper/aged brass looks to have been added over the black. I know some think the V3 may have black paint on it. But to me it looks like it beat, and scuffed up, much like how the Yuma looked in its stunt form.
Okay— be warned. Solo spoilers...
Randy/Korbanth was told by somebody on the Solo crew that Vader has a cameo and that the saber on his belt is a new variation that basically looks like the MPP, but has Graflex bunny ears. In Randy’s latest newsletter there’s a render that’s his best-guess as to what that may look like.

Regarding the emitter: Here is a closeup of the same shot. Definitely looks like black paint on the emitter to my eyes. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180423/9f17c124c1d731f3fda7f35ce41c069d.jpg

Are talking about the bit around the blade on the face of the emitter? The rest of the emitter so devoid of paint though:unsure
Oh yes, I assumed you meant face of emitter. Perhaps I misunderstood what you were looking at.

could it this person be describing RotS style saber? It has silver bits on the back of the shroud that could be mistaken for "bunny ears"??

Oh wow! That's fugly :sick He're hoping that they go with it and we get to see some really screwed up saber. :lol I get tired of the pretty ones.
I've got a question for everyone.
Which version of Luke's lightsaber does Lucasfilm consider canon? The book says that the Cave Build Hero is the one. And of course, the Creepy Uncle is based on that. But I noticed that starwars.com uses an image of the V2 and the new Battlefront series uses the V2. And a lot of the older games used the V3. Is there a definitive Luke saber?
They used the ROTJ hero for ages. It’s only been since the they threw the V2 a bone with the MR replica that it got a little love. I love they chose it for Battlefront. The “official” lightsaber guide still shows the ROTJ version (it’s literally the knocked out image from the archives book). But that guide also shows the skinnyflex as the Skywalker saber.
To be honest, I think they have a database of random images, and the art director for any given project just pics the one they like best.
