Vintage Kenner / Re: Double Telescoping Lightsaber Darth Vader

Glad to see that I am not being witch hunted here. I often open up my big fat mouth without thinking, as I have done here.   Ive got better than pics for you guys..........My firset Dt Fig was Ben, I have had since I was a child. When I was eight or nine years old, I tripped over my Death Star, and stepped on Ben, breaking his lightsaber. Now, who wouldve ever in a million years think how big of a deal that was. I tried to glue it back together that day, but it didn't work, and so I guess the end of the saber was thrown away, or was sucked up by the Vacuum monster.
Do you have any clue what it feels like to have that figure????? Yeah, I got a DT Ben........I opened him up, ripped him off his card, threw the card away, broke his saber, and lost the broken pieces.  If there was ever a time in my life when I wanted to put a gun in my mouth, it was when I started collecting and realized what that was worth.
That DT Saber is actually being restored to all it's former glory. The guy in England, Craig is his name, who makes the DT Sabers, is going to repair it with me. We are going to put my saber in his mold, and inject molten plastic into it, and outfit it with one of his inner sabers.
The tough part will be the color match.
We are having it written up as a big story, and are going to take alot of pics. I'll keep everybody posted

I guess I didn't put it right. If you really cannot afford it.....DONT buy it. I work alot of overtime, sell custom figures I make, save money whenever and whereever I can to buy this stuff. My family comes first, and they always will.
What I really mean is to  do whatever it will take, work your fingers to the bone, work until you collapse, scrimp and save, and maybe, if you have the money, and are in the right place at the right time.........it will all be yours.
Take care and God Bless

Not trying to make fun of anyone here, but you gotta have some balls to try and get the real expensive items, and stop telling yourself "out of my price range"
When I first started collecting again, it was one year ago. In that time I have acquired alot of prototypes and rarities. How you may ask........I hunted high and low, and paid a bundle.
I have ALL THREE DT figures in my posession allready. Yes, they are authenticated. I am paying off 2 more DT Vader, and yet another DT Ben from a man in England. It will take me months to pay them off. I am also making monthly installments on a 12 Back DT Luke(AFA 50Y)
I have 3 DT Lukes now. My point.......when all is said and done, I should have the largest collection of DT figs in the world.   When I first started I saw these guys at shows who were like: too rich for my blood, I'll just go and get some more Boba Fett stickers and R2-D2 cofee mugs, and hope one day somebody will just give me a Rocket fett for free because I love SW.
