    Yeah, that sucks. I am happy for those who wanted the Cal saber (maybe they'll make Cere Junda's next so you can put them together). Oh, there is one thing that I would love (and make me want to buy Cal's) is if they made it so you can change the color by swapping out crystals.

    What are the chances we get a yellow Rey lightsaber? I am on the fence with keeping my Kylo Ren saber.

    I'm sure over the years they will probably release the other sabers from the poll, hopefully Cal's will be the first customizable legacy saber
    I am betting we get yellow Rey and hopefully Leia one day

    Picked up the crimson dawn light banshee bundle, It’s a very Price conscious saber option, they pretty much buy Chinese hilts and install their own electronics, which are a little touchy but have a crap ton of features, multiple sound fonts, RGB etc.

    little paint ,some greeblies, a wrap, and using the internal coupler, made a half decent double bladed lightsaber

    So it seems Disney World is letting people buy extra scrap again. It’s annoying because I was there the last day before they shutdown in March and they wouldn’t. Not gonna pay scalpers $70 for a $10 hunk of metal. Too bad they aren’t selling it online.

    Wow, that is really beautiful. So guessing you might hold onto your Ventress one for a bit longer if his thoughts come true?

    someone in here mentioned it over the summer. since Savvi's wasn't doing the saber builds, and only selling legacy sabers, they were selling their scrap a la carte again.

    yes it was a surprise drop, released with the new Ahsoka sabers at WDW

    currently shipping anywhere you buy sabers - GameStop, Best Buy, etc.

    I will have to check my Hasbro Pulse order then, because I never got a shipping notice from them.

    EDIT: Looks like Hasbro Pulse was not shipping until Dec. 1st so I cancelled with them and placed an order at Gamestop, worked out great. Gamestop is running a sale so I got it $98 cheaper, GS was $166 shipped instead of $264 shipped from HP.

    Dangit, now I'm tempted to buy the Revan one using the same sale. I just love the color changing gimmick!

    Be careful with the Revan, looks cool but there have been lots of reports of malfunctions

    Hmm i am tempted by the Palpatine deal but I am going to Downtown Disney next week and will probably pick up a legacy saber or two
    Also I am sure down the line there will be a deal to be found, as I got my Kylo elite earlier this year for about $200 and after I sold off my old deluxe Kylo I only pad about $50 out of pocket

    Ahhh, dangit... That's a bummer there are malfunctions. That sort of takes the fun out of wanting it.

    Nice, hope your DTD trip comes back successful. I actually love deals like this one since I managed to land the original Kylo Ren for under $100 on a super discount. Plus I was lucky and did not have any problems with it.

    Edit: Reading comments makes me really hesitant to purchase it now.

    What are the issues with Revan? Reviews looked good, except that one guy that didn't know how to plug the blade in. For the price at the Gamestop sale it's a pretty good deal just to get the hilt and crystal.

    From what I read on reddit and on the Amazon listing.
    Green button either not working right out of the box or breaking later.
    Clash detection not working after a while.
    Blade not working correctly (although I take this with a grain of salt because of people not really knowing how to use the new blades).

    I'm guessing this is going to be different than the toy version they already released?
