The favorite lightsabre poll

Nuff said. I vote Vader. Because of poll option restrictions, I had to leave out an "other" option and combine Obi-Wan's slightly different I/II lightsabres.

Anakin Skywalker's OT lightsabre.

Anakin AOTC. Only canon example of a length varying blade.

What? Since when did Anakin's blade's length vary?

It increases in size when he kills the bugs whose name I can't spell. Director's commentary mentions they had to extend the blade so he could hit both of them.

Darth Maul's, then Luke's RotJ lightsaber. The green blade makes it all worth it.

My favorite will always be the original blue one that Luke sports from ANH to ESB. It had an elegant yet sleek hilt and the color was always my favorite ligthtsaber color. I was never fond of the color green though I really liked the continuity nod that Luke crafted his own saber to resemble his teacher's - Obi Wan.

OT --

Luke's ROTJ lightsaber -- I like it's sleekness compared to his ANH/TESB weapon.

PT -- Welll I'm tied on several areas.

Obi-Wan, AOTC -- Because the ROTJ lightsaber is based off it

Dooku, AOTC -- Even taking account Darth Maul's weapon, it's a unique and more inspiring design and lends definite effect to the sword fighting genre of SW.

Mace Windu, AOTC -- Equal balance of both Obi-Wan's and Anakin's design.

I voted for Maul but I absoluetly love Windu's violet blade. Yoda's blade aint to bad either.

I love Dooku's hilt. Then Mace's color is pretty cool just cuz it's different.

Luke's ROTJ and Dooku's curved Blade are mine.

Doesn't Corran Horn's lightsaber do that as well?

Anyway, I vote Luke's lightsaber from ROTJ. I did like the dual saber thingy that Anakin used against Dooku (even though he got smacked anyway).

:roll: G level canon then, if you want to split hairs with this new system.

Vader also tries to spear Luke in RotJ by lengthening the blade.

Mace Windu's, mothafucka. I dig the purple.

A close second is Luke's ROTJ blade.

Corran's wasn't the first; Gantoris' lightsaber would lengthen up to 3x normal length (Jedi Academy Trilogy).

I vote Vader, but what about Yoda's lightsabre?

Tyranus: I dig the wonky hilt.

Everybody knows that the reason they finally kick him out of the Jedi order is because he made a 10-meter long lightsabre to kill people across the room.

Lukes in ROTJ followed by Dooku's in Ep2

Dooku's, it looks elegant and -lacking a better word- graceful.

I voted for Dooku's because like Sirius said it elegant. A perfect weapon for a count

Going with Mauls for sheer bad assedness.

Incidently which of Anakins sabers are we talking about, the boy goes through Lightsabers like i go thought beer.
