Yup. The one I saw though had a chrome emitter top but same style. I find the Chosen One to replicate ANH/ESB styles so
Problem. Those are flat-head counter-sunk bolts. A movie prop wouldn't have issues accommodating them since there are no internals, but a combat saber would. |

I do have a few suggestions, that I would love to see on the product pages as options.
Please let me know if you like any of the following.
We'll go with some of the most popular sabers, and some that I feel need a little more in the way of options.
Archon V2.1:
We'll start with the neck, and how I feel it needs some broader color options. Since it is already black, the logical options would be Gold, Azure, Crimson, and Silver.
Next is the grip section, which I feel needs a few cosmetic options. Basically a standard version, and a granade style version would be interesting. I would also like to see an option to leave this section black, or silver.
Next is the switch, an interesting option here would be an activation box in either black or silver.
As for the rest of the saber, I can't think of anything else to do to it.
Chosen One:
This is a saber that in my opinion is screaming for some interesting options.
Lets start with the emitter. Different styles and colors come to mind. Leaving the emitter silver, or making it gold would be pretty impressive. Changing its shape would be interesting too. Maybe three versions, the standard version, a more rounded shaped still slanted, and one with a reduced angle of slant. The windos and no windows options are still a must.
The same color options could be said for the rest of the saber. Maybe this could even apply to the grip.
Consular:
The only options I'd like to see on this saber are involving the shroud. Holes along the back of it would be appealing, plus a selection of colors, gold, azure, crimson, and maybe even black would be interesting.
If the shroud were black, maybe the body would have to be another color, like silver, gold, azure, or crimson.
Guardian:
This one is almost perfect, it just needs some color options of its own. Maybe black, gold, azure, or crimson for the shroud. I'd leave the body itself entirely alone.
I'm intrigued by these ideas. Especially the Crimson Guardian. |

Lightwhips! one company does have them I won't mention a name.....but, not conventional for any actual action since the only way is fiber optic and fracture and break. a cute display and spinning at most. speaking of that company we don't name......anyone see the axe blades?  !!! could we open into a new expansion of lightsaber weaponry? I know the tonfa has been mentioned, a pike is possible. maybe the sai swords? |

I know the tonfa has been mentioned, a pike is possible. maybe the sai swords? Yeah. This would be great since all US products are combat ready. The other guys.... ugh. I love lightwhips. It'd be cool to have a combat-able lightwhip. |

In an email conversation I had with US late last year, I was told there was going to be some new sabers out in the middle of 2016.
Does anyone know about any of these new sabers?

My sources tell me the new hilt release will be later this year, but it will be released in 2016. I just hope it's well before the Christmas/R1 rush, so we don't have a repeat of last year. |

Do we have any rumours if they're new designs or "just" anodized variants of current designs? |

The prevailing rumor is that it will resemble this...  |

Would be neat to have an Arbiter with more color detailing, like the LE versions of other sabers.

I don't see a double listing. Did they fix it or something? I'd still like to see a Crimson Apprentice. I did a quick and dirty photoshop to see what it would look like and it was pretty cool. |
