This guy built a ****ing lightsaber! It looks raw and unstable, kinda like Kylo's, how you'd expect a first generation lightsaber to look. Pretty neat.


Wow that is sick. Definitely more a firesword, but regardless of the comparison, it's sick on its own. I once read a pretty brilliant idea of a genuine light saber, that involved plasma and even glass. It was entirely retractable, and it actually ionised the air around it to get that exact white saber with the coloured glow that you spoke of (which is true btw, but I like the SHF sabers because with the right angle of light on it they do almost look lit up like a real lightsaber). Only issue with that thing is 1 it wasn't possible to build because it needed the power supply of like half a city. And 2 the point could not stab, because the top was a small glass plate. But it was awesome nonetheless. Went pretty deep into real physics. (No idea where I read it, was a long time ago, if you're meaning to ask.)
Anyone here have the Black Series Darth Maul (with the cloak) and the Figuarts Maul? I kinda wanna get the BS to have one Maul with the cloak and the Figuarts without. I wanna see how they would look together. If they do end up making a Figuarts version I can simply replace the BS
I posted a picture of someone who modded the bs cloack over the figuarts maul a while back in this thread Prod. Use search function.
Got my Kylo, I didn't expect him to be this tall but looks good with Mafex Vader and Maul.


Wow those 3 together are damn near perfect.
 
Got my Kylo Ren and FO Stormtroopers today. Really like Kylo but the Stormtroopers are great! Much better articulation than the previously released Stormtroopers and Clonetroopers

I find the hood moves well when posing him to the side. It's not as versatile as cloth, but it's definitely not a hard plastic and immobile. In my photo, I didn't want the hood moved with his head. I liked the angle of him looking with the hood obstructing part of his mask
 
The only difference is one had a love intreast.

Give it time.

Perhaps he and Rey? If they're not brother and sister, which to me, seems too obvious. Rey will probably be the one that tries to/is able to turn him to the light.

I actually saw that too. According to physicist Brian Cox, you could create a solid saber blade with gamma energy, but it would irradiate everyone in the vicinity. You'd essentially be walking around with a handheld nuclear reactor. Here's hoping magnetic field technology comes leaps and bounds in the coming years. What with it being one of NASA's biggest focuses right now, I bet we have a real plasma energy sword contained with an electromagnetic field within 20 years.

There are some things you don't come back from. The whole "redemption" angle in the Star Wars mythos has often bothered me.
 
I definitely need Old Luke. He looked so amazing.

Alright, man! He's actually my most anticipated figure right now. Although, I'm sure I'm the only one to say that. Old Luke is easily my favorite incarnation of the character. I'm sure I'm the only one to say that too! :lol

I can't wait to see him as a Jedi Master training Rey! I'm sure he'll confront Kyo-Ren too, and that will be awesome! I think Mark Hamill is going to appreciate getting more fluid dialogue in Episode VIII, since he complained about his dialogue always being corny compared to Harrison Ford's.
For those who are curious, here's a pic of the Figuarts Kylo Ren without his robes. He looks like someone that would curb-stomp fools:

Agreed.
Some people can't be saved, like the Emperor, who is pure evil, and I imagine supreme leader Snote is also beyond saving but the "lost souls" can often be brought back around.

That's a good look for him, and if I'm not mistaken, a look we see from him a couple times in the film.

I can't wait to see some good Luke scenes in Ep 8. I'm sure Luke will be hesitant to train Rey at first but ultimately will feel it's his responsibility, especially when he hears Han is dead. That look in his eyes when she tried to hand him his old saber said it all. I'm kinda bummed we won't see the original gang back together again though.
 
Nice. Mine shipped from cdjapan and amiami as well. Kinda want to mod the neck to be shorter. But it looks great.
