Gettin' real cute at the guy that probably has banning powers.
I don't actually know. And TSI would probably undo it. But don't tempt me to go actually look at the suite of moderator controls that I still haven't learned.

Have I mentioned how dapper you're looking today? Have you done something new with your hair? And that shirt! Wow, it really brings out your eyes!

How does it do that when it has significantly worse ROM than regular hinged wrists? All of the figures I have with these wrists can BARELY articulate at the wrist. It's pathetic.



Yup, that's on me everybody. Posting while working and not paying close enough attention.

I haven't had any problems getting figures into saber poses with the new wrists. The old ones were harder. Alot of my Jedi just one handed it. Not to say the old ones couldn't, but it was alot more difficult. Every figure that has come with the new wrists for me so far, very easy. It could also be a mixture of those and the new clothes. But I feel like, without the ability to move like these new wrists do, the hands would eventually still just pop apart after a bit.

I also don't think there's any way some of these Jedi could hold the saber 2 handed anyway, like Plo Koon, just because of his hands. But I could be wrong. I just don't wanna risk it. Feel like the saber will break.

My Ep3 Obi Wan saber nub disintegrated off the hilt. It was in a well-protected dueling stance with no sunlight or temperature variance but there we go.

Just decided to dust that shelf and there it was at his feet.

When did I get him like August? September?

That scares the hell out of me. Stupid sabers. Are they all just going to disintegrate? Is my entire collection just stupid to have because all the lightsabers will disintegrate and be useless? My favorite part of it all, just dust in the wind. All they are dust in the wind!
 
Now that we seem to be getting seperate helmeted heads instead of the flimsy plastic ones, I really hope they start giving us separate sabers- one with the blade permanently attached and one without a blade. Like ya'll, I've just had one too many sabers break or refuse to go back in the hilt, and then it's unusable. Or having a lightsaber with erectile dysfunction. I'd honestly prefer that to the swoosh effects.

Was this Ep3 Obi hilt reuse? Looking at it I think the blade is the older skinnier ones. It's hard to tell now that it's broken off and I don't want to pop out Anakin after that.
 
Mine is a new style thicker blade. Anakins is actually even thicker then Obi wans if you look at it side by side (feel like I'm in the GI Joe thread). I haven't had issues with the nubs disintegrating yet so that's good. But they do break easy sometimes which really sucks. I would also prefer the extra hilt route. But this way seems to be cheaper for them I guess? And we wouldn't be able to get the swoosh effects? TVC does seperate hilts, so, I don't know why its not a thing here. I think it would be a much better solution. Maybe they also don't want paint rubbing off the hilt when you play with it since its on that transparent plastic. Not that that shit doesn't happen now anyway.

For lightsaber blades that break I recommend getting some from cubic3d on etsy as replacements. They look nice, and there are alot of colors to choose from. They will break easy too if a nose dive happens, but so do Hasbros. I don't think cubics will disintegrate though, because of the materials. And we really shouldn't have to buy extra blades, but such are the times we live.
