hmm.. I travel a lot. And just for giggles I would be ok bringing a saber with me everywhere. But how do customs respond on 13" of metal with electronics and a 36" poly-carbonate tube? to show what I mean... a list of past countries visited... - Netherlands (home) - Wales - England - Scotland - Japan - Thailand - Greece - Turkye - Syria - Lubanun - Jordan - Germany - Spain - Peru - Bolivia - U.S.A. - Canada - France - Malta - Egypt - Marroco - Ethiopie - Kenya - Italy - Indonesia - Belgium I am sure that this is what the OP meant / wanted to see  |

That is exactly the thing I DREAMED I'd see, but I didn't really expect it I don't think. It would be AMAZING to take sabers that many places.... Now I'm drooling. lol I have actually just been wondering how cool it would have been, I just found out a friend went to Shanghai over the summer. What if he could have taken a saber?

hmmmm... maybe we can do it in an alternative way for now...
Can we try and take picture for this topic showing you (or your friend(s)) wielding a light saber on an obvious recognisable location in your country?
What do I mean with this?
For excample: I live in the Netherlands. I can make on on the beach of Scheveningen with the buildings in the background. I would also try and bring it to Itlay next time and take a picture in Rome with teh Colloseum in the background. Paris... try and have the Eiffeltower in the background/view. etc.

It's a shame I wasn't into this hobby when I studied abroad in college. I'd have pics in like 10 different European countries (Germany, Spain, Italy, France, etc) Although the beach picture I posted earlier is from the Jersey Shore, Wildwood to be specific. That's kinda famous right? |

Hm, going to the Dominican in a week. Wonder if I should take my saber... I'd leave the blade at home, but I wonder if security would rather see it in my carry-on ("look, it's just a fancy flashlight") or x-ray it in my checked baggage ("Sir, I think we've found a pipe-bomb here"). Anyone have any stories to share about lightsabers vs. airport security? Obviously I don't want to jeopardize my vacation nor would I like to toss my saber in to the can with all the discarded hand creams and water bottles people try to bring on board.  |

I think if you called the airport and asked about it you might find out how to make it not become a problem. You can tell them why you want to take it (to get travel shots, similar to say, Flat Stanley, where people take the little cut out picture of Flat Stanley with them and put it in all their pictures to show where he's been and then mail him and some pics to someone else) and your worries that it looks suspicious. Explain what it is, metal housing, a battery pack, LED, speaker, and see what they say.

Mine has been.... nowhere.... SOTJ's house, my house, Stingie's apartment (when she was still in the US, of course). Nowhere interesting. Maybe I should scale a tall building and get on the news waving it around on the roof....

All i can picture is you waving it around yelling "I AM A JEDI!" like that Tracy Morgan clip they use on 30 Rock all the time. |

I have brought sabers to Manassas Virginia, Luray Virginia, and all the way up to Pittsburg Pennsylvania for lightsaber duels. The battles in Pittsburgh were probably the most difficult being as they were waged against my friend/nemesis, Blake. I'll likely be bringing them to Canada with me this winter.

Carried my liberator 8,170 miles from el paso, tx to Isa airbase, Bahrain.
Yeah you have me beat in travel distance. Though not into lightsabers at time and being over the coarse of 9 years or so ago...wow I feel old, up to now I have been (in no real order) Alaska Washington Oregon Utah Wyoming Idaho California Arizona Montana North Dakota South Dakota Colorado Minnesota Iowa Wisconsin Illinois Michigan Indiana Ohio New York Pennsylvania New Jersey Florida Canada Mexico These are all the places I have been to (didn't count the airport in Texas or Alabama), I have either lived in like FL and OR. Or driven too. I have plans to revisit all these places and more with lightsaber(s) in tow. Might give my stunt libby to my mom when she goes back to PA and make he take it to New York with her. lol For now my list is pitiful My house Grandma's house Aunt's house Around town Will be traveling to Seattle shortly. |
