Wondering when the next thing will come. Before or after the second Spring Raffle? New things generate interest, but raffles generate interest.
If it is an Ahsoka hilt, best to start getting those out around the duel with Vader. Not long now.

I would love to see all available MHS parts listed for sale in the DIY section of the website. I can't afford a full saber right now, but getting parts is almost as good.

This. And also, the non-illuminated AV switches added to the DIY section. |

I like this idea! Great way to make some changes and new looking saber. It awesome that you can mix and match these parts to create your own unique saber. |

Someone may have already said this...but Kanan Jarrus lightsaber is a sweet saber. I'd like to see it as an UltraSaber!
I agree! I like kanan's its not too far off from a "standard" saber while having an almost katana look to it. I have no idea what they were going for with the inquisitor's saber design... predator disk maybe? I also like the button push change colors idea as well as the smaller MHS extensions idea. |

Yes, I thought the same about it looking like a katana hilt/handle. And the smaller accessories for MHS extensions would be good new option. I'd also like to see just some new individual pommels...not ones already on sabers now, just different new ones... |

Wish #1: what I ultimately want is a 6' staff where each blade is notably longer than the hilt. Working backwards, arithmetic tells us specs: Each blade is minimally 2' long; the hilt is maximally 2' long. But it'd look better to me if they're not equal. So that means more like 26" visible blades and a 20" hilt. 20" hilt means a 2" vented coupler and two 9" individual sabers. So we're talking Apprentices -- but can we get a spiffier version? Why yes -- the Menace! But can we get an original design? Not yet. That's what I'm hoping for: MHS emitter and pommel, 9" emitter-to-body length, so with an individual pommel, it could be a bit longer. Me, I would love something like a Manticore emitter, Catalyst choke, and then... something along the body.  An all-nickel finish option would be what I'd want -- I love the Manticore CE's understated look. (Individuals could then add leather wrap for a custom look.) And as a single saber, and a badass pommel. |

Wish #2: a simple/streamlined curved saber. Basically, the Initiate of curved sabers that I can then mod into a Dooku saber. I'm thinking if I could get the base, I could add 3D printed sleeves to give it a film canon look.

I'm pretty sure if you emailed them they would be happy to set you up with any color switch that they offer in the customization. |

I would personally like to see maybe a hilt designed around Darth Sidious' lightsaber or Mace Windu's lightsaber. I enjoy both of those lightsaber designs for how elegant, yet simple they are. And of course Sidious' hilt embodies his evil nature so well. Just a couple saber hilt design ideas. I think those would be really awesome.

Something I would greatly love to see, is the option to build your own saber, with desired Emerald/Obsidian sound/light.
By build your own saber, I mean the option to choose the individual parts, like manticore emitter, shock body, and scorpion pommel, and have it built by US with desired electronics. Currently you can only buy each component individually, and there is no option to have US add sound/light.
I think the ability to have a custom saber, in the MHS family, would be awesome.

Buy the saber with the hilt that you want, then by the emitter and pommel separately. So, for your example, buy a Shock saber. It will come fully assembled, electonics and all, but also buy a Manticore emitter and Scorpion pommel. When it all gets to you, swap the emitters and pommels, and you've got what you wanted. It's a bit more pricey that way, but you'd have a more unique saber. And, you'd have some extra parts to do the same with your next purchase. |

Unfortunately, not all of the emitters and pommels are in the store as separate items. But Emory is generally very good at working with you, from what I hear over and over, if you email him. I haven't emailed (yet) about components like that, but every email exchange I've had with him has gone fantastically. |

Yes, I've seen pictures of sabers with pommels that are not listed on the website. Email them, and see if you can strike a deal. They are trying to make money, after all. |
