Gold or copper? Still feel that gold is the right color for the traces.

I know a lot of people like the black side switch activation and I did my PCB with circuit card activation since that's what I like (thanks to my childhood Hasbro sabers )...
Having watched the Creepy Uncle scene so many times I feel like it's implied the triangles were what is used for activation.
Thumb position right before activation:
Thumb position before planned deactivation.
It's not shown what he presses at all but he never really moved his thumb to the side switch or on top of the circuit card.
Thoughts?

I thought the same thing. It's really implied that the arrows are used for activation.

I think that is what is being implied as well, though we'll probably never know unless someone asks Mark. I know on the Graflex they use the red button, since its there and available to use. And contrary to popular belief, Mark also can be seen pressing the red button in the OT. It was the visual guides and the toys that popularized the idea of using the circuit board for activation.

I greatly doubt that Mark was there when they "shot" the inserts of the prop.

Hey Gang! I may have missed if someone else has already mentioned this, but that screen shot in post #584 made me see this just now...
<--- CLICK ME FOR AN ANIMATED GIF!
That's clearly different from the Black Button on the LUKE ROTJ HERO, and also different from the "White Glove" Luke's TLJ Lightsaber's Black Button which looks more like the LUKE ROTJ HERO's Black Button with a center line crease right down the middle of it.
EDIT: O.K. apparently GIF's don't work here? How about just the end image then and you guys can just open both images in new windows and click back and forth between them...

I think it's just the coloring and a trick of the light that makes it look like that. In this shot it appears to be a single piece.

Yeah guys, that's what I was thinking too. I even see it in part as a bright spot reflection just to the right of the dark center crease, but when you blow it up and lighten the image the circular cutout is even more prevalent.
I don't envy you guys that are of the "Well, you can never have too many lightsabers!" ilk. This one's gonna give you a different iteration at every frame! :eek You'd better start stocking up on display cabinets from IKEA if you're going to replicate all of them! HA! :lol

This is my belief as well. This is also why I have kinda given up on this saber and moved onto the white glove
You don’t understand how much this cgi cover up pisses me off..
Blu-ray comes out tomorrow and I don’t even care anymore

I bet it doesn't **** you off as much as Luke wearing his lightsaber on the right side versus left pisses me off. :cry

As a lightsaber fan, that was definitely my biggest complaint with the movie haha.
