    Talking First Ever Hfx Obi TPM Conversion by LDM

    This is the first ever Hasbro Fx Obi-wan TPM conversion. Please do not try this one at home, at least until a conversion kit becomes readily available. IMO this is the most difficult Fx saber to convert, and as most of you know, I have converted every kind many times over. It has some "battle damage" (from me battling with taking it apart...Damn that sucker had a lot of Monkey snot on it)

    On to the show!

    Particulars:

    Seoul P4 Blue
    Uber-custom LDM Optics & Aluminum BH Module
    buttonhead screws replacing fake LED bezels (these hold the BH in place)
    All else stock
    Extra special "weathering"

    The Vid:



    The Finished Saber:





    The ummm "weathering":




    There you go, I promised both of them by the weekend and I delivered! Enjoy

    I'm curious to see the bladeholder in it's "uber-custom" state.

    Nice work.

    Sorry, in the interest of not harming TCSS's business, I have decided not to post build pix. Tim is working on a conversion kit which will make hte conversion easier. I can say that the BH is "asymmetrical" and is open at one end (moreso open than normal)

    And Thanks guys~

    Oh, no worries, LDM. I was just trying to bait you into disassembling it again.
    Lol. Not surprised it didn't work.
