Hey guys,

I got an interesting question to throw up there. I had a look around wondering what is involved into making Revan's lightsaber and kinda like confused a bit.

Out of curiousity, I need you guys to shed some light onto this. I plan to make both the purple and red lightsaber and don't get me wrong I was checking out the Lightsaber thread and was like that's pretty interesting except I'm not sure where to go and how to start that off.

Any pointers or tips?

These guy's are a hit & miss with ordering as in I've heard good & bad things about them but since your more after parts shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks for that guys, time for me to start hunting down and get into it.
So far, I got some good feedback and suggestions on the Revan's lightsaber frontier. However, what I'm trying to understand is that Revan's lightsaber is customised and not any ordinary replica like the common Sith Lords or Jedi that we know.

http://www.fx-sabers.com/forum/index.php?topic=33181.0 Seems to have a good supplier mentioned, I'm going to try and see if there is any news about that so far.

http://www.ultrasabers.com/category-s/70.htm Seems to have a good variety of lightsabers there, there might be one or two of them that I saw on there that do look similar to Revan's lightsaber but I need your input about this.

I see you can customise them, any tips there?
Well I got some good news, I managed to strike myself lucky with a guy named Rhyen Skytracker who is selling Revan lightsabers, also Qui Gon, Nithilus and more. If you are interested, I can post the infomation here and forward it onto you.

I'm in the middle of waiting to see and hear a few sample of his Darth Revan lightsabers, thanks for your help guys thus far, the FlagshipEclipse and thecustomsabership.com who pointed me to this person.

I'll let you know.
I would be interested in seeing what other sabers he does...

Alright. I'll see if I can get a couple sample photos, I'm in the middle of purchasing of the Darth Revan lightsaber but before that gets underway, I'll show you a sample of it later this week. Draco this might interest you as well.
Here was a sample of his previous Darth Revan lightsaber but his newer version is in the works at the moment and I have requested a sample of it.

However recently he has informed me that he's working closely on a different version closely in conjunction with this group www.ldmcustomsabers.com

This group of people are good to know and might be able to help us in the near future.

I've also communicated back and forth with a guy named Marc who has been working on a Kotor version at the moment. I've asked him to show me samples of his work and has me on his interest list if I were to go ahead and become his two lightsaber version of Darth Revan, the lightsabers do look closely to 501st standard (minus the painting and blade colours needed)

Lightsaber options (waiting on the details on what is the difference between them)
PCv2 w/7.4V completed saber $525 + Paypal 3.5% + shipping
CSv1 w/3.7V completed saber $425 + Paypal 3.5% + shipping
Functional Stunt saber (no sound) $265 + Paypal 3.5% + shipping

Hopefully I can update you guys more and get back to you.

Any opinions? Thoughts?
I finally ordered two of my CSv1 w/3.7V lightsabers and they get painted and the purple blade was an extra $25, I'm looking forward to it now. They got me down on the queue to get my lightsabers sorted, I have to wait though but I'm very happy now Smile
They look awesome. Way out of my price range but if you got the money then go for it. They will be a great addition to your costume.

Yeah mate, I just bought two of them. One Red and the other purple, and they will be ready in a few months. So I'm looking forward to it now :D
