[BIO MOC] Ancient civilization lightsaber

[Count Sepulchure]

Hello Eurobricks,

Today I am sharing with you my entry to a lightsaber contest that was run on a different resource (not in English but you can click through pictures and follow links all the same), where it reached a top-6 position in the finals. Since I like fiddling with Bionicle pieces (not for building figures, strangely), this seemed like a good fit with the contest theme. And here's the outcome of that venture...

 

 

The hilt features just one cosmetic function knob and some fun shaping featuring triangular geometry. Enjoy!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Time for a hands-on demonstration! The actual size may be a notch smaller than the canon implies, but in smaller hands this lightsaber might as well prove to be deadly.

 

 

 

 

The grip. Oh, the grip!!!

 

 

 

Some exotic finger placement is possible.

 

 

 

Spinnin'...

 

 

...Aaand even more pictures. I always end up with quite a few...

 

 

 

 

There goes the breakdown. Really proud of that 3x3 piece integration!

 

 

 

 

BONUS: a 2-piece lighsaber?! Challenge accepted!

 

 

Thanks for viewing, I hope the SW+Bionicle fusion won't bring about mass unrest among my fellow forumites! x)
