I hope you do post pics DBTD because I agree with LAK, the two colors you chose should contrast awesomely!  Try flickr, I have been using it on this forum with no issues.

I must admit I wasn't to sure about the Brood Guard when I fist saw the video, but it has grown on me. I think I will get a LE version not sure what blade colour yet but I have time to decide while I save up to get one.

I went dark. If I can figure out how to do image posting without photobucket by the time I get them I will post some photos.
Dark with those blades will be beautiful!

I'm curious if anyone has played with one of these at a con (if US had them at cons previously) - how do you block an overhead strike or side strike to shoulder?

I think it's cool looking at a shelf piece, I wouldn't want be able to do any practical spinning/sparring with it.

I am reserving judgement on that.  The upper is EXACTLY like an Initiate V4.  EXACTLY.  The easiest way to assemble something like this would be to screw the existing initiate body to the handle, then screw on the lower extension and pommel.  There is no reason it would come unscrewed when you were spinning it around.  The torque from spinning is on the handle, which is a solid "T".

You wait.  People are going to be buying these and making custom tonfa-style sabers from EVERYTHING, because you'll be able to put that handle on the end of whatever you want - as long as you can re-wire.

The handle I was talking about is THE handle which is the countoured section with the switch on it. The other "part" of the tonfa I was talking about is the part screwed to the Initiate.

I think we were just using different terminologies and I thought you meant take the HANDLE off the tonfa section and put it on something else. But you meant the whole tonfa extention. So I was picturing a screw in HANDLE getting tight clockwise and loose counter clockwise while spinning.

Thinking about an LE, kinda like the idea to have this as an off-hand saber, kinda like a shield.

Tongue IMO spinning a tonfa is simple enough, but the skill lies in making it effective in combat.

Well then, you're welcome.

OK, just spitballing here, but...

Could an enterprising jedi attach two Brood Guard's together (or a Brood Guard and something like a yari extension or Initiate) to make a saber scythe?

I've seen it done with a Flamberge (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsT-8v4vhSI), but IMO the perpendicular blade on that makes it look more scythe-like, but function more like a massive war pick (which is still awesome).
Although, now that I think about it and look at some images of scythes, the horizontal blade makes more sense, but the Brood Guard could still be a more scythe-like handle than using the crossguards of a Flamberge.

I don't know, might be a neat addition to saber polearms or just a weird pipe dream on my end. My pipe dreams do tend to involve machined aluminum pipes and LEDs . Wink
