Hi,
I have both the thick blades from here and the stock MR blades. I must say the blades from here are very thick, incredibly strong and look virtually indestructable. However, they are quite...
Kind of off topic but I went to an electronics store here in Melbourne and they sell Lux 3's and 5's.
Guess how much they cost?
3w = $30AUD
5w = $70AUD
Can you believe that? Crikey!

Actually, I tried it - the foam fits into Tim's blade and diffuser. Its a slow process but very snug. You can get it in there.

The damn thing took me 8 hours to finish. Phantom Menace was on TV that night. I was converting it for my brother, and I missed out on it while the family watched it lol [:(]

I got mine....well lets just say there were a few problems with the deal. But I did end up getting 2 used Anakins delivered to Australia for $80.

Ahhh, thanks Umi, when I take it apart I'll have to check it out. You reckon I should split the houseing of the sound/light board to look around?

Ok, You know how I said my saber sounds bad when hit, then goes back to normal? Well it happened again today, and it seemed like a good chance to test battery packs, so I switched packs and the sound...
You know, I bought a second hand Anakin and after hitting it a ferw times the sound went really dull and crappy, I hit it really hard again and it turn off then on straight away and worked normally....

Protein5000 coz I'm a bodybuilder, and everyone knows how obsessed I am with getting my daily requirements in.
I was at my mates birthday, and my mate was trying to get my attention and he goes...
