Thank you Brax.
I'm keeping the collection within the canon timeline, to think i'm only about half way there. :blink:

Hey NeBosa, I have both the Sidious and Graflex on the way from Korbanth as well. These are my first purchases from him. Do you suspect that the damaged pieces were a 1 off? These are fairly expensive items to come in with broken pieces...

Hey man,
These were my first purchases from him as well but definitely a one off. The bubble card seems kind of brittle like a hard plastic, so if it was not flat and leaning on something else in the package then had a bit of weight (even though bubble wrapped) shift on to it while in transport, it could break. I wouldn't have cared if it was the ESB or TFA style I wanted to put together but since I wanted the ANH set up I was disappointed as this is one of the details for it. I contact Randy and he's already sending me a new bubble card.

Since the Sid is cast piece of steel, you'll see imperfections in it and it's going to require buffing and polishing and finishing prior to installing any internals. I can show you some pics… gimme a few minutes to snap some and upload

Cool. I suspected as much, with his reputation. Thanks for the additional pics.

Ok, so keep in mind it's a piece of steel and not machined aluminum.

The gold on the emitter and pommel and the small copper sections are already powder coated or anodized, so its just the body that needs finishing.

No problem,
I know how helpful that kind of info can be. A guy on the FB page showed me a few pics of his Sid before I ordered mine too. So I was prepared for it. Some people might be choked to see if that it's not a "finished" saber and ready for install.
The Graflex is flawless tho. Just loosen the retaining screw on the clamp and turn it to whatever position you want. Install the grips. Install the screws and card. I love it. I can't believe a Graflex wasn't my first 'official' saber. I can't wait to have the internals done… I feel excited like a kid again.

Thanks,
It's funny because it took a few buy/sell/trade transactions for it to get here.

You're down your Qui-Gon right? Plans to acquire again?
