Gentlebeings:

The time has come again to weed out my collection. I've overreached myself a little and need to even things out a bit.

I offer for your consideration a truly beautiful Luke v1 (I love the style reference to the v2 with the knurled kill-key):



It's loaded with premium options: Igniter 2 card (amazing functionality!) and full RGB color mixing.


A classic.


For those who remember the original ROTJ poster.


Any Dark Empire fans out there?


Just because I love this color. :)

The lights in the control box DO light up and flash in sequence (different sequences for different fonts/FoC effects). The bottom black button on the control box is the activation with the top button being aux. The smith at TCS told me that the SD card is very hard to get to - I haven't tried to access it.

It comes loaded with a bunch of sound fonts:
Father's Son
Standard Issue
Essence - Episode I
Hidden Warrior
All Too Easy
Dark Apprentice
The Dark Order
Velocity
Meteor
501 Commander
Now That's What I Call Racing
Testing Testing 123 Testing
Essence - Episode II

Please note that this saber doesn't use a set screw for blade retention. Instead, it uses an interesting O-ring arrangement (you basically screw the blade into the emitter by hand). It's proven very secure - you can go on their website/FB page for more info.

Full disclosure: there was a fault in the original Igniter 2 card. I returned it to TCS and they replaced the card. When it came back, there were some light smudges/scratches on the control box. You have to look carefully to see them, but I believe in full disclosure:


These blemishes are typical - I can provide more pics if you're interested.

It's essentially in new condition, but I'm listing it at a loss:

$650 $630 $600 $575 shipped within the contiguous US. Saber comes with kill key but no blade or charger (takes a standard 3.7v charger).

Don't hesitate to ask questions about this gem!

Thanks for the shout-out! It really is a lovely saber... I'll try to shoot some video of the illuminated triangles - they really make the hilt something special. :)

If I did not already have a Prodigal Son undergoing a V2 conversion, this would have gone to the top of my list!
Imagine what you will know tomorrow....

Gentlebeings:

Here's a demonstration of the soundfonts and flashing LEDs on the control box. Please note that the sound is FAR louder than my camera was able to capture.

Enjoy and don't hesitate to ask any questions about the saber! I almost hesitate to sell it after playing with its functions today. B)

Enjoy!

PRICE DROP: $600!

I'll let it sit at this price.

Currently, this saber is ONLY listed on this forum - I really enjoy working with people here! I'll wait for a bit and if no one can move on it, I'll list it in other places, too.

Cheers!

With a move coming up (I'm taking a new pulpit across the state), I'm looking to lighten my collection.

I'm going to do a final bump on this gem to $575 and then will list it for sale on other sites.

If you purchase this saber along with the Gladius that I'm listing today, I would consider offering an additional small discount on both hilts.

May the Force be with you, my friends!
