And a great thing for TCSS would be the barbie-doll effect: So have a $50-60 base model, but also sell styled and sized internal collets and different sleeve/housings for $25-30 per component to really customize the look.
For the customer, no more locating/drilling/tapping a hole for a weirdly out of place thumb knob on the end of your hilt, easy tool-free blade changing, and serious nerd-cool-cred with the people you show your saber to.
