[quote author=saberfreak board=TTJShop thread=1145334451 post=1146567485You wouldn't say that if you saw it up close.
Sorry to be a wet blanket but there're only very very few MR stuff I'd spend money on because they all look like crud up close. I decided that after getting both their Vader sabers. You're actually paying like $50 for the actual cost of the prop, the display case and the plaque, while the rest goes to the license fee.
I've seen fan made equivalent which is of far better quality and detail, and cheaper too! Well I suppose you can't really blame them(MR) since their stuff are mass produced.[/quote]
Though I haven't seen Sideous' saber, I have to disagree with you about the quality. I have 4 of their replica sabers, and I am very impressed with them. I think they look great and feel great!! Though I do agree that there are some really nice fan made sabers out there that are probably cheaper.
