BEN KENOBI DT SABER

[FLETCH]

hello everyone ive had this for a few years im not looking to sale this i just always wondered is it real and as its not complete and is it worth anything?
I know they are very rare and i doubt i will ever find a tip for it.
It came from a loft find collection i bought a few years ago from the US.
There was no figure is there a correct figure that only came with this dt Saber white or grey hair like with the luke dt saber figure
Ive taken the best pictures i can i only have my iphone as a camera

thanks in advance Tom

The discoloured end & letters indicate to me the real thing.

hi james thanks do you know which variant of ben came with it do you think its worth anything

 

[aussiejames]

I'm sure there would be a variant that is 'more correct' but I'm not sure which
Bloody oath it's worth something (actually probably a lot- how much , again I'm not sure)
Be very careful handling it, especially in the tweezers they crumble. Now I remember someone on RS posted a picture of their DT Ben saber after they tried to take it out of his arm. It ended up in a baggie in a dozen tiny pieces I think once they start turning green it gets scary fragile. If I or someone can remember who that was with the bag of DT broken bits they would have an inner & therefore probably pay good dollars/pounds for an outer.

thanks again james its still pretty solid and flexible

I am pretty sure the dt Ben only came with the white hair.

It's basically worthless :lol:
I would give you a fiver for it
If it is the real deal it's worth a considerable sum.... A complete one afa graded sold for £2000 recently, so the outer saber on it's own is probably £3-500, maybe more.

For what my opinion is worth (not much lol) it looks legit to me.

Great score

Never say never! A member here called Del once found an outer Vader DT saber in a collection then years later he
managed to find the inner section to finally make a complete DT Vader. Great accomplishment that's for sure!

Great find, amazing that such a tiny piece of tubular plastic could be worth so much.

Best of luck whichever way you decide to go.

That's one way expensive Barbie straw :mrgreen:

Be great if you could get a tip to match up with it

Nice score there Tom! Congrats! 8)

 

[FLETCH]

thanks for all your replies guys im gonna keep it for now anyway it owes me nothing i got it in a star wars case of 24 nice loose figures
and like joe said you never know im constantly buying loose collections from the US
i really do want to know the exact variant that goes with it though is there a certain coo or is it just white hair Ben

ill have to agree it is bizzar how much a small piece of plastic could be worth this is why i love buying loose collection

Very cool to see one of those even if it's just half of it. Still very rare and i agree with Ed, probably worth a few hundred ££ on it's own.
