Will someone make props again like MR did with the lightsabers hilt in case etc?

How much are those customs going for in comparison to MR stuff.

It all depends on what you are after.

I built a Luke ANH using replica parts and the total only cost me around $120. Of course, that was many years ago.

I have pretty great condition Master Replica sabers. The Force FX ones, and no one even messaged for one.


Maybe I just don't have the right stuff.

I might try and just go for the entire hilt line up and get cases. Don't have space to add the blade too.

RPF, FISD (and all other 501st forums), PropDen, TDH, MPPC, all these boards are full of talented artists and customizers who make fantastic props. For example I'm not a lightsaber collector, as you might know already I only collect Original Trilogy Imperials. And still I had to have a real Graflex conversion with Exactra 20 bubbles and accurate t-tracks in my collection as an exception. Never cared to own a Master Replicas, EFX or Icons LE lightsaber, but a Graflex is proudly displayed among my Imperial collectibles. If this doesn't show what is the best type of sabers and props in general out there, not sure what will.

The MR/Icons/EFX sabers all come with display bases and plaques. Mine were custom made.

My saber above is not a Parks replica. It is a genuine and original Graflex flash gun with real Exactra 20 bubbles and Roy t-tracks and D-ring.

Sounds expensive, but it looks very very nice! I'd love to have one of those.

Thanks. They are getting more expensive each day. TFA is making crazy prices for Graflex flashguns due to the presence of a genuine Graflex saber in the movie (most likely ESB Luke - with a few minor changes).

If there was a clearer shot of the activator then we'd know for sure which movie it was from, ANH or ESB.

Considering there were screws/rivets in the handle and the D-ring assembly like on Luke's ESB saber, this is most likely going to be a version of his ESB. With a glass eye though instead of the second button. We'll see soon though.

A close up of Finn's lightsaber here: Finn Wall Decal Fathead ® Star Wars - shows ESB "activator" with electronic circuits instead of ANH bubbles

 

[MegaPrime33]

Yup, the circuits and rivets make it ESB. Good call. It wouldn't have made sense for it to be ANH anyway. I wonder what kind of lightsaber, if any, old man Luke has. Will it be a new iteration of his ROTJ or something else entirely?
