Yes I do. You want?
Luke ROTJ stunt saber
- Thread starter Darth Fetty
- Start date
There is most definitely a step down for the graflex clamp to sit flush with the rear section before the start of the pommel. Problems arise because the saber is cast, not machined and so there are MANY irregularities on the round surfaces. Then add in the fact that the saber is NOT round in cross section, the clamp rotates around the body, the chrome tape is higher in places because of the gunk beneath it, the pommel rotates, and the emitter rotates... and it's easy to see why the details on this saber have been hard for so many folks to try and pin down over the years.
Looks like avery nice attempt. Of course I can see other things wrong with it, like...

Oh I know Barry...no matter how we mere mortals try, there'll ALWAYS be inaccuracies to the expert eye...
But considering the crappy photos we have to work with...

C'mon, spill the beans.
I know a few things with mine. No tape on the clamp sidebars, the width of the grooves should be uneven in some spots, the holes (which I should try to get someone to do for me), and the lever should be a bit rusty. Other than that, what else?

Not from me for sure.
It's kind of been my dream saber for almost 10 years.

Ah, very cool. Thanks for posting those. Yep, they do look flush. Ok, I take back what I said.

I'd sure like to actually handle the original. Gotta wonder what little secrets it's holding back. Photo's can only take you so far.

Just wanted to show this off...
I won this from MR last week. They aren't making them, but it was used as a display at ToyFair.
Note the "Emiter Rotates" and "Pommel Rotates". Weird...
(and they know it really is the Stunt and not the V2)

Nah sorry, it mentions something in that box under CONFIDENTIAL that copying is prohibited. Plus, it's a bit too big for my scanner.

The Hero had a tri-ring, but the Stunt and V2 had a D-ring

Very nice prize... I'll consider this our sneak peak at their upcoming V2... same base saber afterall.

That is an amazing replica--well done. It could easily pass as the real deal.
Oh, and is MR not doing the traditional cone-knob V2? That's a shame. Still, makes my Russrep version that much more a prize--my favorite peice in my collection.
