I just recieved my saber in the mail, and all I could say was "Wow!!" and then, "This was SO worth waiting for!"
I ordered the hilt section with ribbed extension piece, pommel 3, and emitter 5. When I designed the saber with the MHS builder, I originally placed the ribbed extension piece between the hilt and emitter. But after playing with the real thing, I decided I liked it better down between the hilt and pommel. It allowed me more room to get a two-handed grip without the switch getting in my way, and helped balance the long blade alot better. I was so happy that I showed it to several other star wars fans I know, and now they all want one too! I can't wait to get this thing wired up, I will be sure to post pictures.
