In response to the question ask about the quick disconnect it is in reference to the MLS or Modular LED System... right I mean I spent a good time on this site reading up and down and left and right and I think I'm right when I say this. I love the idea that it the original led color choice comes with the quick dis option as the other MLS colors are only $35.00USD and with a little down time it would allow one to change color almost on the fly. But nothing beats flipping a button or two like on a RGB version.
I'm wondering if the RGB will also be in MLS format and allow for the quick dis option... probably not seeing that the housing requires 3 buttons rather than one. That being said you also get 6 color combinations out of the RGB and that should hold ya. I think I'm gonna hold off until the anodize black becomes available.
On a side note I would like to offer a few ideas as far as the claws go!! I'm thinking of doing a lil' DIY work!!! Linking the claws together with another ring that will act as a secondary support to add another place for a blade retention screw. You know the saying 2 screws are better than one. =-) Never having purchase a saber from you guys... it is a huge fear of mine that one day while swinging away the blade comes flying off doing damage to anyone / thing. I have a lil one in the house and she is very good about being in the wrong spot at the right time.
Other than that ideas for claw designs would be kinda far out there from blades "I know not very kid safe but very kool" to force lightening bolts, and well of course flames. The later two looking better as overlaps that extend over the emitter and saber proper rather sticking up and out thus getting caught on things and getting in the way of twirls and spins.
If I were to get two of these glaives as they stand I would most likely do some
Dremel work on the mid-staff section. In the hopes of recreating and making it look like the Jedi Consular's staff from a lil game called
Star Wars the Old Republic (SWOR): Hope trailer

I'm so pumped waiting for this game to drop that actually all my hunting for more info on it lead me here and I happy it did.
I would love to have both the game and a saber when the time comes the
force willing. =-)

Oh man just had yet another random thought any way one can get/make an off-hand light saber not in this scheme small enuff that it is more like a dagger but bigger than say Peter Griffin's cheese slicer... lol
