Title: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: sjorsjo91 on March 17, 2011, 11:44:21 AM I will receive my Anakin ROTS stuntsaber in arctic blue this afternoon but in the meantime i was wondering about something.
Is it possible to have one of those super sweet Petit Crouton boards installed in it? I don't have the money as of yet and i don't have the resources to build it in myself but would it be possible and how much would it cost? Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: ThreadJack on March 17, 2011, 03:17:53 PM sjorsjo, I think this question would be better asked on fxsabers.com. I know there's a couple people over there who convert MR/Hasbro hilts. As a matter of fact this sounds like something right up General Grievous' alley.
Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: sjorsjo91 on March 17, 2011, 03:28:50 PM Well i do have an account there. so i might even try that when money allows it. I am already really tight because i NEEDED this saber so much :P
Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: Ultra on March 17, 2011, 07:58:28 PM You can put any board in it that you want, pretty much. There's plenty of room.
Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: sjorsjo91 on March 17, 2011, 08:35:21 PM Thanks ultra. I noticed that it is possible to order PC's through tcss. Can you perhaps put one in for me at a reasonable price someday in the future?
Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: Ultra on March 18, 2011, 12:05:02 AM None of my prices are reasonable, you should know that by now :D
Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: ThreadJack on March 18, 2011, 01:50:14 AM None of my prices are reasonable, you should know that by now :D UGH. Tell me about it! :D Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: Caine on March 18, 2011, 05:59:54 AM Petit Crouton installations are never cheap and not easy (unless you got solder-fu). So a "reasonable" price from any smith is out of the question (remember, this hobby isn't cheap when it comes to customs)
I am also Petit Crouton Ceritifed, but don't ask me for a "reasonable" price either, LOL. Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: JdiKnhtJMH on March 18, 2011, 09:13:54 AM Cheapest solution would likely be to snag a busted MR and get the soundcard and battery pack out of it.
Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: sjorsjo91 on March 18, 2011, 09:15:31 AM Thanks for your eye opener Caine MTFBWY
Thanks for the advice JdiKnhtJMH but i think a pc lightmeat would be awesome in this saber. Maybe some day..... Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: rezolution on March 21, 2011, 02:10:07 PM Awesome. I just ordered an Anakin in Arctic Blue last week. Can't beat the price...
I'm planning on doing the same thing as you are. I'm going to get the PC from TCSS and put in the lightmeat font. I think it's going to be more of a show saber than a stunt. I already have a prophecy and a bane and I'm worried about smashing/denting/scratching/bending the Anakin LoL. It can't possibly be as strong as the Ultrasabers hilts :) Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: sjorsjo91 on March 22, 2011, 07:54:26 AM I want to do the exact same to my hilt. Can you post some progress pics when you are wiring it all up?
Title: Re: Anakin Skywalker ROTS pc? Post by: rezolution on March 23, 2011, 08:19:00 PM Sure, if you can wait about a year for my pics LoL. I NEVER get time to work on any of my electronics projects at home ;) I have a workbench full of parts all sitting there waiting to be soldered for all of my different hobbies!
