I have put in my first manly, and am eagerly awaiting its arrival!
I have put in my first manly, and am eagerly awaiting its arrival!
3 orders, with 2 more needing to be done to finish up the following:
Paint them myself, i have the second, third and forth mostly done (all painting done). First one i haven't touch yet, last one didn't really think much about it (still not sure what to do with it).
Electronics are all SeoulP4 (those things are BRIGHT!), except for the second one which is a LUX III. No sound yet, i have a 2010 hasbro board that i need to figure out when i have time and then decide in which one it goes into!
The bottom 2 renders have switch holes that would be going right through 2 sets of threads.
In order to see the Light,
you must sometimes risk the Dark.

BLUE 8 Ready to ROCK and ROLL!
On the rendering that i did quickly yes but not on the actual sabers... Beleive it or not.. i had to add the buttons for the last 2 at the last second since i forgot about them and just put them there
I'll post some real pics when ever i get everything done.
For the forth one, i'm actually missing that extension where the button goes. I still don't know what to do so the button doesn't bother me or look out of place. Someone mentioned putting the button on the pommel, but it makes me wonder if it will interfere with the speaker...
I'm also looking into what i need to polish the aluminum to the polish look they have in the movies. My local tool stores don't have anything ready out of the box *sigh* I should have brought back a stationary polish wheel back from NY...

:P Yes i was looking for it. So a manly is 1 saber worth of order (even if you order it over 2-3 orders).
Got it! Interesting term of word. I see theirs also Arkai's and Rhyen's...
Shadar to the rescue:
1 Rhyen = roughly 1/16th of a Complete Saber
1 Arkai = 4 Rhyen's or 1/4 of a Complete Saber
1 Manly = 4 Arkai's or 1 Complete Saber
1 Ubermanly = 2 Manly's or 2 complete Sabers
1 TMP (Tims Mortgage Payments) = 2 Ubermanlys or 4 Complete Sabers
1 LVG = 3 TPM's or 12 Complete Sabers
At the end... it will be 1 TMP xD Heh still cheaper than my other hobbies LOL!
