    All three sabers look great. My favorite is Purge and is the one I voted for. Absolutely love the design and the colors. Congrats to IndustrialAction for winning this contest.

    Congratulations to all the entrants.

    Special congrats to IA for his year-long epic build for THE PURGE. Also congrats to Naigon for ensuring that my saber would sit in LAST PLACE out of three entries. If there had been FIFTY entries in the custom category, I firmly believe that "THE PURGE" would have won. If there was a better saber in the contest, I would have LOVED to have seen it (and would have, of course voted for it)

    Three Igniter 2.0 + Trucolor sabers, and I'm awaiting the reveal videos to really see them shine. Photos of any saber are, well, flat.

    AK-47s and Lightsabers, both so fun to build

    Yes, A respectful amount of effort was put into the Purge. Interesting and different it is. Although the pommel end has elements that seem out of place I can dig the rest. Good work to the others too.

    All three are awesome sabers. I would have been happy with whichever one won. And all three had Igniter R2's!

    Ah naigon, you could have just said, "I don't believe it would have been fair to vote for my own saber, so I voted for the next best thing." We would have believed ya

    It would have been fair if mine was the best, but it clearly wasn't so I had to vote for the real winner. I'm happy I even got more than 5 votes against a beauty like that, at least that means I'm doing something right.
