Saber Forum

Who else heard of the new 5 Force FX lightsabers coming out? I'll be getting my hands on the new finally released Darth Sidious/Palpatine lightsaber ;o I collect Force FX's too just for fun so. wondering which Ahsoka sabers are being made. Count Dooku re-release is cool too. Figured this would be the appropriate area to talk about Force FX replica lightsabers so =] Been wanting a Palpatine lightsaber for YEARS :P

I hadn't heard, but wondered. They had Maul, Windu and Ventress  years ago, and I expected a return.

Before anyone else pops in with the "You can't talk about competitors" comment, I've been told that we can discuss Force FX, as it is not a dueling saber. It's a display piece.

I hope they do come out with some detailed stuff that currently isn't simulated in the stunt saber community. I feel the ForceFX ROTJ Luke saber is lacking compared to the slimmer version in the stunt sabers.

That's cool. One of my brothers has the Anakin one, and the other has the Maul sabers. They look amazing, but they can't compare to my saber in durability or brightness.

I actually didn't hear about that. Which ones are they?

I'd be down for some new models, especially some heretofore unreleased stuff.  I have a Luke Skywalker Episode IV Force FX saber and I love it.  I'd love to expand my collection.


Indeed.  Hasbro is a toy company and is of no threat to Ultra Sabers' bottom line.

They are also replicas. US has stated that their sabers are not exact replicas, but rather battle sabers. Some of which just happen to look similar to the sabers in the movies.

They do their own take on designs.  Sometimes, I like the Ultra Sabers version better. :)

I also have the old 2005 Anakin ROTS, one of my favorite lightsabers as it was my first one ever and first step into the lightsaber community (no puns) :P But not sure on the Ahsoka's though, most likely the Clone Wars ones or could be the Rebels sabers. I wont be able to get another Ultra Saber by October if they all come out during the summer at once :P I'll probably have 2 Palpatine's for reasons ;o Been wanting to make his Clone Wars outfit when he fought Maul and Savage. Also there is a new Luke lightsaber coming out so could be a proper thin neck FX version finally, who knows. I agree on that though, not really appealing much but I love anything Luke so. I did see the new Obi-wan though for the 40th anniversary and it looks amazing <3 Proper gold top neck and copper bottom neck coloring. Can't wait to get me that one. I have the removable blade Obi-wan so the darker neck colored one, not really a fan of that but it works. Wish they would've kept the gold top copper bottom colored neck in the removable blade series. But yeah you're a Star Wars fan rather it be regular character movie saber replicas or combat/stunt lightsabers as well so :P You can just have better fun with our combat stunt lightsabers

We sell the Force FX sabers where I work and the Luke ROTJ always takes longer to sell than the others, due to the fat neck no doubt.  Last time they were stocked, three of those went up and they haven't moved in a few weeks.

Yea, I figure anything official from Lucasfilm/Disney isn't included in the "competitor" category.

Can't compete with the masters.

Not really talking compitions here. Just excited for the new releases plus finally a Darth Sidious lightsaber added :P
