Obi ANH Sabers: What do you have?

Over the years we've seen two (soon to be three) companies issue licensed versions, a few from cottage industry vendors, a multitude of parts runs, and even a select few constructed with genuine parts. It seems like just about everyone who wants one must have, or at least had, one by now. My question is: What do you have?

I don't think we need to flood the thread with pics, as a description would probably suffice. Overall, I think it'd be interesting to find out exactly what's out there.

I have the worst Obi Saber ever made....Icons! I know I know, I am lplanning on weathering it.
 
I've got 2. A chronicles version made with all original parts, and a Tunisia version made with a Russ emitter and Serafino Booster, the rest of the parts are original.

I've got a Russrep w/ original clamp and bubble strip... Chronicles version w/ media blasted emitter... waiting on Russ's hand wheel and it will be complete...
 
Here is mine its a Parks MKIII, slightly weathered with Blastech bubble strip,and Master Replica soundboard (vader). Im looking for a decent pair of transistors to put on OH and a thread is useless without pics come on pics everybody i'd like to see.

At least yours is not loose parts in a box, like mine...

It was a complete saber from the start, but I have upgraded parts so that I now have something that does not even fit together completely even for display.
I guess that I could have a few parts custom-altered, but I never got around to. I have also been using the excuse that I'm waiting for parts to come available, but I also have a too short attention span not to jump to doing other projects instead.

The parts I keep are:
* Russrep steel emitter
* Heavily altered Parks' steel grenade
* Roman's clamp, without the "GRAFLEX" text.
* Rebelscum bubbles
* Real transistors with modified ob1kenny aluminum washers.
* Serafino steel "gear". I have the impression that Russrep's run was identical to Serafino's.
* Roman's older type of chromed pommel

But on the other hand... looking at the thing is not the hobby. I also have:
* Real grenade base plug
* A couple of quartz crystals
* A couple of Luxeon LEDs
* Various TI calculator parts. Exactra and others
* A few unfinished tiny sculpts that I intend to cast
* and lots of various tiny tiny greeblies that I have collected
.. to put on the inside, but parts on the inside is still not an excuse for not having anything to put on display

I have two Russrep Sabers one in Ali and one in Steel, one original clamp, one replica and real exactra bubbles and some transistors. I am looking for some more accurate transistors and waiting on two of Russ' handwheels....
 
Here are two Obi-Wan ANH of mine. I'm not certain who made them ... perhaps you guys here can tell me. One day I hope to own a real-parts screen accurate Obi-Wan ANH in the meantime I'm enjoying these very much!

I guess since I started this I should show my hand, as it were. I had an all hardware version that I gave away, am nearing completion of one featuring a machined pommel and emitter by Hez and hardware for everything in between, and have started rebuilding a formerly stripped down hardware version buillt around a resin grenade. Maybe someday I'll get an all metal version, but I seriously doubt it.

How about ... these transistors :
