Favorite Lightsaber
The Lightsaber is, as well all know, the trademark weapon of the Jedi Orders, both old and new, and probably the most recognizable weapon in the galaxy. Yet, many variations have existed, each one uniqe to their Jeid user. Which one is your favorite?
Vader's saber.

Maul's should've had a way to seperate other than getting sliced in half. Then it could've been a single bladed saber, a double bladed one, or two single bladed sabers. That would've kicked even more ass than that weapon already did.

Probably a prequal era saber, I was never fond of the later ones. They seem less structurally sound.
Howedar is no longer here. Need to talk to him? Talk to Pick.

I love Windu's purple blade, and you have to admire the gold styling on the . However, I can't deny the power of the classic Vader, and Yoda's saber from AOTC is pretty bitchin.

Vader's sabre- it's similarity to Luke's lightsabre is the best part

Luke's second lightsaber gets my vote for coolest design, although I also like a few of the prequel ones. Most notably, Yoda's lightsaber due to its miniaturization and Count Dooku's lightsaber for its innovatively bent design.

According to the EU, Maul's lightsaber had length and intensity adjusters, but he apparently chose not to use those during his duels in TPM.Mechwarrior wrote:I kinda like Corran Horns Lightsabre, hit a switch and it doubles the length of the blade.
now imagine that combined with Mauls double sided lightsabre with a way to seperate them into 2 sabres and then you get what i would want.
I actually prefer Exar Kun's double-bladed lightsaber to Darth Maul's, but that's just me.

Hmm. Lukes green bladed lightsaber from RotJ. Ben Kenobi's from ANH come in close second.
Curious though, they just had a commercial from Master Replica's on the TV. First one of those I've ever seen. Pretty cool.

They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong
But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

Supposedly Anakin's/Luke's light saber had those as well while I think Darth Vader's only had an intensity adjuster. I don't think Luke's second saber or Ben Kenobi's saber had adjusters on them.Master of Ossus wrote: According to the EU, Maul's lightsaber had length and intensity adjusterst .

Actually, I think that when you see Maul activate his saber in TPM in the hanger, the handle gets longer a little bit.Master of Ossus wrote:According to the EU, Maul's lightsaber had length and intensity adjusters, but he apparently chose not to use those during his duels in TPM.Mechwarrior wrote:I kinda like Corran Horns Lightsabre, hit a switch and it doubles the length of the blade.
