Yeah.

Spit ball'n ideas now. What if the emitter disk was just purely decorative? Treat it like a thin neck except have the blade attach in the ribbed section. Or maybe have the emitter disk sit on the top of the body's "cone" and omit that tiny neck. They can't make an exact replica anyways so if they wanted to I'm sure T. Snyder could come up with a satisfactory work around.

OOH! Here's an idea... the "emitter" could actually be a blade plug that was installed into the top of the saber... could take it out, then install the blade into the lower ribbed section, make it duel worthy, and when you're done, put the blade plug back in, and you'd have a relatively screen-accurate, display and duel-worthy saber.

Edit: of course this may have been exactly what you meant and I just got my wires a little crossed lol

Brax Offline Administrator Posts: 2054 Thank you received: 732	Yeah, that would be possible, so long as you could create a socket deep enough to hold the saber securely, and that the 1" diameter blade did not force that ribbed section to be expanded too much. It would lose something if it were the same diameter as the rest of the saber or bigger.

DarthMario95 Offline Platinum Member Posts: 428 Thank you received: 201	Actually, this is similar to what SF did with the Reborn. The super thin emitter is actually a unique blade plug, so you might be able to do something along those lines for a Sidious inspired design.
