PRESENTING THE MWR SABER SYSTEM!

The MWR Saber System is the brainchild of Shaun Sunday; owner-operator of Part Time Hero Props.

Longtime Star Wars fans, we (Shaun and Robin Sunday) decided that there wasn't enough of a range for Cosplayers and saber duelers in Australia, and wanted to change that with unique, affordable designs.

These designs have been in development since early 2016 and are finally coming to you, here, on Kickstarter!

Why are our sabers so good?

1 - Modular Core.

We have a 2 year guarantee and to make it easy for warranty work, the core comes in a three-piece module!

The core is easily removable should anything malfunction, and sent back to PTHP for repairs under warranty!

There are two screws; one above and one below the switch and recharge port, undo those with your SaberTool, undo the LED module screw and slide out the core.

1a. - Modular Design and Colour Adaptability.

In keeping with the modular design, the emitters and pommels of these sabers are interchangeable with each other, allowing you to customise your sabers in quite a few combinations!

With the modular core, if you have one of each illumination style; you can remove the core from your string saber, and put it in your base lit saber; and vice versa, swapping colours and illumination styles!

All the parts featured, are adaptable with the threads on the Harbinger

It's as easy as unscrewing the thread!

2 - Comfort.

These saber handles are designed with comfort in mind for extended spinning and duelling.

With a maximum diameter of 34mm on the grips, they fit nicely in the hand and allow you a strong grip without worrying about it going flying mid spin.

3. Durability.

We've tested the sabers extensively.

They have a custom designed Polycarbonate chassis to help absorb the shock, and hold everything nice and tight so it can't rattle around during duelling.

They've been drop tested from a carpark at 20 Metres/65 Feet, and survived, we've since upgraded the core further to improve on this more.

The blades themselves are also incredibly tough.

They will withstand heavy duelling, for sustained periods.

See the video below to see their durability with string blades vs Heavy Grade blades, my heavy grade blades vs baseball bats and more!

Blades will always shatter eventually, but these will take a lot of beatings before that can happen.

Threaded tips help reduce tip cracking, by allowing vibration to gradually loosen the thread, to be easily retightened.

Glued/resined in tips can cause a build up of pressure and vibration around the and of the blade itself, cracking it and sending the tip flying!

The tips on our sabers will be sealed on with Clear Heatshrink, for added strength.

4- Brightness.

MWR sabers are BRIGHT.

The 9W base lit sabers get full diffusion with minimal to no deadspots on the blade as shown in the video below!

They have Flash on Clash, so they flash white upon impact.

The StripBlades cast a wide glow, with full edge to edge diffusion, with the exception of the very very tip (which still catches a lot of the glow!).

5 - HyperColour Blade System

The hypercolour system isn't entirely new tech, but it is a custom innovation of various tech to create a duelable, photoreactive dual-tone removable string blade.



Currently we have 2 primary combinations on display - HyperBlue and Tourmaline.

If we hit all of our stretch goals, we will unlock a spectrum of approximately 35-40 new hypercolour combos.

Stay tuned for campaign updates as we try new combinations.

6- Sound.

Each saber comes with 3 sound fonts, blaster lockup fx and a Mute Function.

With the SaberTech (PTHP Edition) soundboard we use combined with 8 Ohm speakers, the MWR sound fonts come through crystal clear and VERY loud.

See a sound demo in the video below, featuring fonts by Crystal Sonix.

The final fonts in our sabers will be made by Aaron at Fonts by Fourzze!

See some of Fonts By Fourzze's work below!

7 - Usb rechargable.

With an external recharge port, the MWR Sabers are rechargable on the go with your laptop or external powerpack, and recharge in a few short hours from a smartphone powerpack.

8 - Competitive pricing.

Most sabers of this caliber go from $300 USD and upwards, especially with modular designs, and fully installed.

The MWR range retail for $250 AUD/ $186.15 USD with FREE SHIPPING.

You're not likely to get much of a better deal than that, for a saber of this quality.
