Does anyone have a list of all the fulll size Lightsabers and Blasters they have made. After getting the snowspeeded I am really interested in these now.

Also what is the difference between Limited Edition, Elite Edition, and Collectors Edition.
 
try toytracker.net it should have all of the lightsabers and what they are currently worth.

Limited Edition is just the regular high-quality lightsabers that are limited edition (numbered), Elite Edition has better quality materials and is usually more accurate and is limited edition as well, and they may be Collector's Society exclusives as well, but they cost more than the Limited Edition lightsabers. Collector's Edition are lower-cost lightsabers that aren't limited edition, they are like mass-produced stuff that's still high quality (they cost like $150 to $200) but isn't as good as the LE versions. I think they stopped doing Collector's Editions though.
 
Both the Collectors and Elite lines were axed. All three were essentially of the same quality, but MR already learned its lesson. LE is all there is now.

The only CE was Qui-Gon, which is heavier than its LE counterpart, because diecast weighs more than machined aluminum. The quality difference isn't that great, which was the reason the "contrived edition" had to go. If you find a CE QGJ for under $100 bucks, you can't go wrong!

The Han EE (2006) is more accurate than the LE, which was one of the first MR props. The EE has a working trigger with hammer, wooden grips, and it's real heavy. This is the best blaster IMO.
 
i quit Master Replicas a long time ago because of their BS. they did make great collectibles, but they got greedy buy screwing their loyal customers that were with them from day one. sooo....i have many of their lightsabers, blasters, mini lightsabers-- but only because i refuse to sell them for less than what i paid for them.
 
I am really looking at a couple now. I am looking at a couple of the blasters but there aren't to many versions of those.

For the lightsabers I am looking at Luke and Darth Vader. What do you guys think. I prefer the signature version but which one? What do you guys think?
 
Well for signatures, personally you can't do any better than the ANH Vader SE. It had both Jones and Prowse and the saber while inaccurate in its number of grips and surprisingly light especially compared to the later releases of replicas is still extremely iconic. As for Luke I'm not really happy with any of the SEs out right now but with confirmation of a ROTJ Luke V2 being done via MR this year I guarantee it'll have Hamill's signature and that will be the piece to acquire for that....
 
I only got one of them, the Sidious LE, and while it's probably the lowest valued saber out of all of them, it's my favorite. The sabers really are great, so shiny and they are really top quality.
 
The Elite line was not axed, it was just put on "hold" for right now.

Mark I hope you got a decent bankroll because if you get hooked on these youre going to need it.

at least you can get the ROTS sabers for a good deal now, but the rest will still cost you some green.

I am not looking for to many. I want some of the OT ones I don't have enough of an interest in the PT to go for all of them. I really want Luke's Vader's and maybe Obi's. At the most I would want 4.
1 Vader from SW ESB or ROTJ
1 Luke from SW or ESB
1 Luke ROTJ
1 Obi SW.

The real question is which of those that have multipule films are the best. As I said before I think I would prefer siganture editions, they just seem to be more special to me.

I actaually think I like the Blasters more and they seem to be easier to find for less.
 
well all the Lukes except for ROTJ have signature editions, and all the vaders have a signature edition.

Im the wrong person to ask which are best, I couldnt decide myself so I just bought them all...

They are all awesome replicas and you can't go wrong with any one of them, it's just up to you which design suits your tastes more I guess.
 
You have all them? All of them signature editions? I was thinking I could get signature editions for some and get regulars for the rest down the line.
 
the only sig editions I have are mace, anakin, and luke anh.

the rest are regular LEs. I dont really care much about the sig editions but those 3 above were just too cool to pass up.

I guess I'd get the Dooku sig edition if it didnt have that crappy old plaque that tarnishes easily.
 
what did you pay for the vader rotj se? im holding out for the LE at a good price.
 
Congrats, i got them both
Very iconic sabers and cause they are both made out of graflex they look great together(if you don't belong to which episode they were used:cool: )
I personally prefer the sig versions which have for me the feeling to own
something SW authentic:maul
 
the problem I have with most sig editions is that youre paying $100-$200 just for the signature of some no-name person that's only popular because of SW. with the exception of a few of them.
