Vader hilt parts

[jjshumpert]

your best bet will certainly be to grab a vader from dealtree on ebay, got my last one for 48 bucks shipped, and gutted the sound module and exterior parts for another hilt. the parts are plastic but much cheaper when you consider you get the trim pieces with a board that will run both sound and the led, when the parks kits is just trim parts and costs 80 bucks... if you want it more accurate look for king of parts on ebay, he has the clamp rods for 7.50 used one on my vader and it looks great!

The clamp rod isn't accurate to any vader. :P In ANH they used a bent screw.

well just burst my fun bubble, thanks x! i cant remember which hilt had the clamp rod but it looks much better, even if you have to put it on the wrong side of the hilt

ANH had the lever, but the rod was a bent screw. With the ESB they kind of just added a washer and tightened the sucker down. ROTJ was a different animal.

I do admit the non-broken look is much nicer though.

i used the rod on mine, it looks awesome, gives a better kick off for the release backspin, and breaks up the black of the activation box really nicely, and is much better to deal with than the retainer pins that come with the mr... did the emitter cutouts today and it really brought out the style of the saber, and gives it an exposed crystal look with the 3w led directly behind it in the blade holder... pics to follow soon as i find the cam
