Has anyone outhere been able to find out what kyp Durran's lightsaber looks like? he happens to be my favorite star wars character, and i would love to build his saber. I have tried all the normal means of finding it google, bing, yahoo. I have checked all of my books and graphic comics that i own with him in it. I am going to try the library next but nowhere i look has a good picture of it. So any help would be needed. I guess if no one can find it We should have tim set up a kyp durron lightsaber building contest and pick the best one and say that is it... LOL

I'm sure you saw this already if you've been googling Kyp Durron, but the Star Wars Wookieepedia has a few pics of him with his lightsaber. Nothing too up-close or detailed of course, but there's a few pics to sift through.

How's this one?
BH 16, 7" Fluted with AV hole, Pommel 7, a 5/8" or 3/4" D Ring screwed to an Insert 1, with Powder Coating 1 on the BH and Main Body. It's quite short at a hair over 9.5"...

A bit longer then....Close on to 11 1/8" with 2x 3" Fluted extentions and a 2" Double Female Extention.

Photobucket makes them all look the same size without editing them in their online program. I would say that teh second one down remains closest to the look that you're after.

This is AWESOME! you guys are coming up with some great ideas! and from the few pic i have seen of his saber these are as close as i think you could get. so far i kind of like a mix between boj and fragrax i think i would use fragrax's choke and pommel and boj's main body style so far. awsome ideas guys. oh and a bit off topic, Fragrax on your soleya how did you get that triangle shaped piece ? is it MHS modified? that is an really beautiful piece of work

In a lot of those pictures it almost looks like his emitter is like Blade Holder 18.

I am finding that Kyps lightsaber looks a lot like corrans from the few pics of kyps i have seen. it is short, with the same style emitter Etc, I am thinking of incorporating that. plus i just love madcows corran horn. I think a mix is called for :)
