You are correct on that. As I recall hearing it, they actually reused some of the Obi Stunt hilts from ANH in ROTJ. I think what it comes down to for me is the grip pattern. It's just not Obi for me without the Grenade section. Those rings on the Archon are comfy though! And on that note.... Archon LE with a Gold Neck and a Dummy Activation Box? Or a real Activation Box? I'd be all over that....

Haha you and me both. Does the archon seperate below the rings? if so, I wonder if Emory might be convinced to replace them with the grenade section from the arbiter... I know I said a little while ago that the archon would be my second saber but in the end I opted for the consular, but the archon will definitely be my third, even if I couldn't get the grenade section. I am tempted to mod it myself by adding an activation box, even if it is a dummy like you said, and possibly having the neck section painted...

Nope, doesn't separate. Still, it's beautiful. I modded mine out with a box, but I went oddball with it. I swapped the neck for another MHS choke and MHS box, slipped the box over the choke, added a double male adapter, put the emitter back on, and created something more unique in the classic OT style. I actually think it looks a lot like what was in some of the old RP Guides and Sourcebooks. I find having the box so high up the hilt, right beneath the emitter, gives me GREAT grip and leverage in a fight. Still need to sand the edges smooth though..... lol

Would like to see an option on all saber listings to have the retention screw replaced with an adjustable thumb screw for quicker adding and removing of blades/blade plugs. This would be great at conventions when you don't want to (or can't) carry around an extra tool in order to get the blades in and out and would be great for just all around convenience. Plus considering I've now tried three different lengths of thumb screws and none of them work because it seems to be such a specialty length required. I'd pay an extra $5 for that added convenience instead of having to rely on a tool to do the same thing.

The way you're able to swing it, you'll want the tool and set screw if they ask you to demo it at a convention... just sayin! It's a good suggestion for those not going to swing it too much though.

a yari extention for v2 initiates/dominixs/aeons. even though the v2's are being phased out so many people have v2s that you could still make plenty of money from having even just a few. Id definitely purchase a few myself

I'd love to have a long-handled extension for my Aeon, at that. There's definitely at least two of us, then!

Consular body for build your own saber please. I'm having a cool idea for a custom build. xp Consular body, Manticore emitter, and Malice round pommel. Blade will be Blazing Red. ;o If the Consular body ever gets added though.

I know this has been put here before, but I'll add again as I really, really want this! I would love to see a coupler that works like the coupler for pneumatic tools. This way one could quickly take say 2 Archons and go from staff to dual wield in less than 10 seconds. Even though I am working like crazy to pay off my CC bill for my last purchase so I can buy every color MLS LED you guys make, I would break out a 2nd one and buy this type of coupler immediately. Just a suggestion. Thanks for giving me a recharge port option for the Archon btw. I am still in love with it!

How about with the grab bag saber an option to add a grab bag blade ( i know you could put them in the cart seperately but maybe a little extra reduction for oredering the hilt too). I think that'd be sweet for people considering a new saber etc who were tight on funds like myself (bloody students )

A female to female MHS adapter would be freaking sweet!!! Doesn't have to be anything fancy, in fact just a 1 inch silver one would make my freaking lifetime!!!
If they could manage to make a color similar to the Viridian (silvery-green) color option for a saber as seen in KotOR II, that'd be cool.
