Are those allowed to be discussed? I don't see them as threats to US but I'd rather ask.

As far as I am aware any officially licensed sabers from Disney/Lucasfilm are allowed to be discussed since they are the IP holder.

Ok. Then I guess...
WTH are they doing... the Leia one is awful (that orange...).
The reyllow is interesting, but it lacks the windows. So no blue/green effect on ignition and the rotative switch is not functional. I prefer my Empress so far. Even if the legacy one has some nice details.
And their take on the dark saber is... quite ugly. just like the hasbro version.
The dooku is less than meh afaic.

Do any of you collect/own some/all of those? What do you think of them?
I only got the Ahsoka rebels/mandalorian ones. And they are bulky as hell. But the windu and the ep1 obi looked interesting. Until I got my Guardian <3

I too own the Ahsoka ones and yes...bulky as all hell.  But these aren't combat sabers, just for looks.  They will have to do until US makes curved hilts.

On the topic of them being bulky. If you watched the behind the Disney Gallery episode that discusses season two of the Mando they talk about how difficult it was to create practice sabers for Ashoka that lit up and kept the proper size. The gist of it was that electronics were not in the hilts and they had to his that stuff in her costume. This is all from memory so I apologize if some details are off.

Thing is, some other guys did an insanely good looking version, that supports electronics. And probably far better stuff than what is inside of the legacy sabers. My guess was that they went with the existing stuff they use on the other round sabers. Cost effective yes. Good looking... Meh. But i don't have the kind of money needed for the pretty version.
