    Default MR vrs Hasbro

    Here are the differences that I have noticed so far.


    -Vader-
    Hasbro has different switch box setup and is easier to dissasemble than the MR version. Clash sensor is seperate and in the blade base.
    <kit is the same as MR>

    -Obi-
    Hasbro has different switch box setup and is easier to dissasemble than the MR version. All you need to do is take apart the switch box to get the guts to slide right out. The inner casing is glued together but pops apart pretty easily. Clash sensor is seperate and in the blade base.
    <kit will be different than MR>

    Cheers

    These are ones I have taken apart so far. I am verifying the old kits work or designing new ones.

    I have done an Anakin ROTS with the old kit and it works like a charm. Disassembly is exactly the same as the MR.

    I see the new Hasbro Obi Wan conversion kit is in the shop... Will that work on an MR saber?
    I'm hoping to convert my MR Obi Wan but the blade holders have been out of stock for a long time...

    I'd have to say, no, since Tim mentions in the first post that the kit will be different from the MR.
