FX Lightsabers

Does anyone here own any of these replicas, I've been looking online and was thinking of purchasing a Luke ROTJ one.

 

If anyone has ever purchased any model of these, feedback would be appreciated, I just want to know if they are worth the price, in quality, ability to have fun with and how realistic to the movies they are.

I Have 1 vader's FX saber, won it from cdon.com contest :) Its pretty cool! I dunno should i sell it or just keep it. If u like SW and want to get some SW stuff to your home buy one! I would put my vaders hilt to somewhere but my GF hates it lol :D

You should check out this site: http://www.fx-sabers.com/forum/

 

You'll find many custom sabers and those who can give you good info on what to buy. You might want to take a look at this saber here: http://www.fx-sabers.com/forum/index.php?topic=26297.0

 

Its not for sale and still being worked on (page 9 has the lastest pics) but its based on Satele's saberstaff (from TOR). Also its a pretty good example as to what some of these guys can do.

i have a couple, they're great for show and the hilts are extremely high quality. The blade's are a tad weak, while they can survive mild impacts, you dont want to go into full on stuntman mode with them.

 

i've heard of conversion kits that use stronger binds on the LEDs and a thicker blade shell, but never tried them.

 

Still, the prices drop quickly if you can find them locally (i got 2 at a Frye's for under $150) and they cool as heck.
