My build log

a neighborhood kid that plays with my daughters friends that was the first day i seen him, hes prob 6 or 7, i was feeding my 6 month old and I seen a red flash and got up to see this kid beating the hell out of my floor with the hilt. I said stop you little s**t. Needless to say he weathered it some more lol. Now its up so no one can get it...

I feel for you. and i have been there as well. I was on vacation in CA, visiting my cousin who is a huge star wars freak. I showed him my sabers and his little 6 years old wanted to see it so i let him hold it. I turned my back for 2 seconds as my cousin was showing me his new gun, when i turned back around the little brat had the saber between his legs like a horse and was running down the gravel driveway with the hilt side dragging in the rocks. It took me a bit to catch up with him and wrestle it away with out hurting him. I blame myself for that one. But still I had to control a lot of rage that day.

so the point is that children can see it from my hands, or on the shelf they can't reach and that's it.

I feel for you both but .....Rule #1 "No Let small Children Play with Expensive Lightsabers"

Hope you can get a handle on the damage and repair it

[Xanatos1986]

its already fixed with no money spent lol

[stegasp]

Well, at least he didn't do too much damage to it! Just chalk it up to a life lesson, I suppose.

haha man this is a good way to make lemons into lemonade!
i let me 2 yr olds play with my FX sabers, and they have dinged them enough to convince me to weather/convert them to Obi ANH, and Luke ROTJ V2, both with LUX conversions hahaha

sometimes i let them play with my MHS, too. i could care less what they do with that, as i built it to be my sort of "rough and tumble" duelling sabre. i have even considered dragging my MHS behind my car! hahaha
only time i've been concerned is when i had the blade out and my son turned it on. i dont have a blade plug so you can guess what i did.

funny story. kids will be kids... nice idea using the hasbro blade for a sled though! i may have to copy that as i have like 3 removed blades...
