Well, the saber cabinet that I have been working on is finally complete, and almost filled. Guess I should have made it bigger. It is 4 feet high by 4 feet wide. Hope the pics are not too large, usually photbucket asks what size I wanted to make them, this time it didn't.  Lights out and sabers on. With all of them on it was pretty loud, cuddles went running. By the way, the Raven Staff is on top.  Pics of US sabers (L-R: Bane, Dark War Glaive, Dark War Glaive, Dark Shock, Shock LE RGB, Consular, Bellicose)  Pics of Hasbros (L-R: Count Dooku, Obi-Wan, Darth Vader, Darth Maul)  |

Nice. Wish I had the money to build my US collection like that. My dream sabers are the Consular in CG with Obsidian and a Bellicose in BR with Obsidian. This week though I will be ordering a new Dominix V2 LE in BR.

That's a sweet collection, and they all look great lit up in that cabinet. I have a question though. Does that Count Dooku have a Cane Tip on it, like a walking stick, or is that just a black plastic cap on the blade?

@ Shak: That was the original intension when I got them, but I didn't care for the look with the connector (black or silver). If I could get one that was flush with the bodies, and black they would be combined. Yes all are Obsidian, except for the Hasbro, of course If US can/ever obsidianize them they would/will be.
@ Darth Cantus: I had spare money to buy after selling my double wide trailer, plus the US summer sale (thanks Ultra).
@ Big Boss: The cabinet was my first attempt other than pre-assembled kits. I used shelving material. My next one will be made of oak (probably next summer).

@ Dirty Jersey: Yep, thats a cane tip. I had US convert the blade to a ultra heavy grade blade, cut to 25 inches. It works perfectly. I'm gonna use it when I get old and need a cane.

I ordered a standard Initiate blade before and I was lucky enough to have a Heavy Grade Initiate blade sent without asking. That is the one I use in my RGB Dominix when I need to use it as a light source and walking stick. I definitely like your style. |

The Count Dooku hilt is much too heavy to be swinging as a saber. So when I seen someone else who had mentioned a saber cane I knew right away it would be good for that. And yea, any lighter blade would bend to easy under the pressure.

I think you are referring to my post where I converted a Dark Initiate into a Walking Stick. http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=2284.0 That is why I really like your Count Dooku idea. Especially since yours lights up. |
