[ruiner]

Pretty good I guess, but I want to take advantage of the offer they had a while back.

Buy three FX's for $240 shipped. 

Better deal IMO.

I recently received my Darth Maul FX saber(s) and all I can say is WOW!  They did a great job on this one!  My only complaint is that when I have them put together, I can't get the sabers to line up wight with the controls on the same side.

I do like how they both came with the "battle damaged" piece and they look great separated as well!

[kirk_dougall]

Matt read the instructions and flollow them exactly, it took me awhile to line them up bit i managed it once i follwed the manual.

[Matt_Fury]

Yeah, I figured it out about 5 minutes after posting earlier.  I didn't read the instructions, but it does explain why there's an allen wrench in the box as well!

Looks like the once "we cannot make it" statement is a thing of the past.  Yoda looks to be the next saber in the FX line.  Although looking at the pics its seems too long

This gives hope for a Dooku IMO.  I am quite surprised that Qui-Gon has been left out again.

So whats really left with major characters?

EP1 Obi
EP2 Obi
EP4 Obi
EP6 Vader
EP4 Luke
EP1 Qui-Gon
EP3 Sidious
EP2,3 Dooku (same saber?)

Still hoping they re-release the EP4 Vader and Anakin EP3 saber. 

[SilverZ]

Yeah, a Yoda saber would be one of the few sabers I'd be inclined to buy again now that I have all of the colors.

If I recall correctly, MR said at their Q&A at Comic Con last year that it wasn't a problem making the actual saber, but a question of battery life because of the physical size of the hilt. No one seemed to care, so I'm surprised it's taken this long for them to move on the idea.

Hopefully that means Dooku or Sidious will also come along, since you'd think that people would like any other red saber version.

[Matt_Fury]

As soon as they make an Episode 1/2 Obi-Wan saber....I'm buying it!

What pics are these Jim? I havent seen any. Would definately grab on of these simpley to display with my lifesize yoda

[Mikey D]

I'm thinking about picking these up now since I'm selling my Hasbro collection and have a few questions (and don't feel like looking through all the pages to find the answers).

What's been released so far?  If I buy that package Jesse posted a few pages back would I get every saber released so far?

Do these come with display stands and what do they look like?

Thanks

I thought the article said those pics were that guy's concept Yoda saber and not an actual MR version.

I'm surprised Qui-Gon has gotten passed up as well, but the Yoda has been asked for quite a bit more and think of how well that would sell to kids if they price it cheaper than the others.  Bye bye Hasbro sabers. 

I'm also hoping they re-release the AOTC Anakin cause I'd love to have that one.

[Brian]

I've always wanted to get at least one of these sabers as well, and I'm hoping this year I can make that happen somehow.  Ideally, I'd like to get a Luke Skywalker saber (preferrably ESB), but those seem to be a little tougher to get at this point in the game.  I think our local Shopko has the ROTS Anakin saber in stock, which is "supposed" to basically be the same one that Luke eventually gets - but I know there are differences.  Are the Luke ones just too tough to get at this point (ESB or ROTJ), or is there hope of picking these up somewhere in the future.  I think I've seen the ROTJ version online a few places, I'll have to check again.

Luke Esb

Anakin Rots
Vader Anh
Vader Esb
Mace Windu Rots
Darth Maul
Obi-Wan Rots (Released August)
I think thats them all.
The stands look like this:


That package Jesse suggested wouldnt get you them all, but its a good way to start. Theres also some pretty cheap BIN deals on Ebay most of the time.

Hope that helps.

*Thanks Elvis

You missed a couple kirk.  They also did the Vader ANH and AOTC Anakin.

[Jim]

The pics of the Yoda are over at scum.  They are fan made, but it goes on to say and hint that this will be MR's next official release. 

I started collecting these with the intent of buying only one color of each saber.  Seven sabers later and the Obi on preoder I just wish I could track down an Anakin EP2 and a Vader EP4 at a decent price.  I am hoping that the Vader gets released again next year with the 30th Anniversary.  Hopefully like they did with the Mace and Luke ROTJ.

What I would like to know is what ever happened to the MR FX Blasters that they made mention of a few years ago
