While the newer Artoo has some really neat engineering tricks, I really do much like the older one's darker shade of blue more, so I got him instead. *_Oh and because 40th Anniv. Artoo is sold out everywhere._*
Thank you, Sir Paul.
Thank you so much for the information. I especially appreciate how you compared the sounds on the Carson Teva helmet to the Trapper Wolf helmet, as I was really wondering if their sounds were identical.
Great video!! Many thanks and may the force be with you!
Thanks man! They've upgraded the Xeno app to include a lot of this stuff, but had a hard time finding anyone that knew what they did or how to do them until now!
Great Video man, would you say it is worth selling the 2018 version in order to buy the new one? The old one doesn't seem to be on sale anymore, does that make it special now? I am not sure, could you help me out? Best regards.
My emitter keeps fallen off
Vid, too dark
My solution to my blade wiggle problem was use longer and and possibly widening the holes for the screws. I also have used the tape method you suggested too
Even from beyond the force paul still gives us a good quality review ..well done paul ..the force is with you 💕
your sons room is cool he must be so happy with all those toys
For the gray backpack, could you fold the top back so you can see more of the droid?
Dos anybody no when Paul past over and what was cause? From what i see a very nice man that has left this earth to soon 😔 Rest in peace man in a galaxy far far away 🙏🏼
Got a trip to Batuu planned for '25, and intending to make a B unit. I wasn't going to buy a backpack, but actually, that looks really nice and very useable as a general backpack. Thank you!
ohhhh nice! I'm working on a Kanan Cosplay. I guess I will go with this saber once is back in stock! :)
Hello ! So, in may 2024 There is six new kyber crystals, and two new holocrons ( silver). Can you do a review and complete test, and compare with the former crystals and holocrons ? Thank you. 🌺
Hi Paul great tutorial. I’m wondering if I need to remove electronics before going in with the wash/paint? Thanks!
Thank you for this amazing review! I'm definitely going to upgrade now.
Nice job. Mine's coming today for £44.99 and figure I'll have to weather silver it like last weeks Axe Wove one I did and Boba's
I've recently bought the Ep3 Ani lightsaber from Padawan Outpost but noticed my power on activation is actually the smaller button near the bunny ears. I'm confused as I've not seen anyone else other than me who has the turn on button there instead of where yours is.
Thank you for the demo and info 👏🏼👍🏼🏴🇬🇧
THANKS SIR
I saw another review for wayfinders where they go through all of the standard kybers, but skipped the force guidance ones. I wanted to know if they did anything different from the standard Vader and Yoda kybers, and it looks like they do. Thanks for covering those too. May I suggest adding time stamps for the different voice sets? It would be really useful if someone is looking for a particular set of quotes.
Thank you Very much for the video ^.^ im a fan of the ones on the far right myself :o
Not sure if you know yet, but the droid depot now has the C unit as a build yourself. Thought you might like to know. Thank you for your comparison of these choppers, and maybe you will get a build yourself chopper and compare all three.
Im collector too buddy! Congratulations for yours,greetings from Brazil! South of Brazil 😊
I bought a neo lightsaber at a bin store and has no battery. Do they come with some kinda plug in charger too?I see a hole for one it looks like maybe
Only discovered your channel a few days and gutted to have seen the news. You inspired me to buy my first lightsaber from your excellent reviews. Seemed like a great guy. RIP
RIP mate, see you on the orher side.
Gutted. What a great guy. Rip
RIP mate, you will be dearly missed in the costuming community
for people wondering why their saber does not notify them when its charging, this could be for a multitude of reasons A. you left it off charge for so long it has no power to actually say low battery, B. idk man this is purley my experience with my saber from saberforge
where can I get the support base?
Is there any way to restore the settings to default because I changed some colours and don’t remember what they were to start with
Great Video. Just received mine, and it`s a great improvement compared to the old Obi Wan EP 1 Saber. Can you tell me what paint you used for the juwel on the activation Button?
Hey Paul... Thanks for such a thorough video, I'm making my first trys at custom fonts, and I'll admit it's not going as smoothly as I'd hoped... I'm pretty sure my board is a 3.0, as it's short and black with the standard slide MicroSD port, rather than some weird swivel port. Anyway, my questions: 1. You mention backing up the original files, but as my saber did not come with a memory stick, just an open port for one, all my original files are on internal memory. IS there some way to back up THOSE files? Or are they just chip-burned into the base board memory? 2. I've downloaded my current test files from greyscalefonts, and after seeing you pull the additional files from the proffie version of the font you're converting, went back an pulled the Proffie versions of all the fonts I'd gotten [they'd been available for Xeno3, so I'd pulled those first] to do the same thing you did in the video...only the fonts are missing altogether several of the 'necessary' files...what do I do in that case? 3. When I put the microSD in my saber [AFTER having updated the config file to specify that my saber is NOT a pixel blade], it apparently did an update, and my female voice became male [and rather reminded me of Anakin's voice], and I suddenly gained the up to 6 button flash functions, and of course, my fonts completely changed...however - since I can't compare the original config file to the new one, there's definitely color issues...like it's still wanting to use a pixel effect, even though they should all be turned off. The effect is that rather than just a quick fade or black out on turning off the blade, the color suddenly shifts to blue, THEN turns off. AND to make it even worse, getting it to let me change the blade color AT ALL is basically impossible. I can change fonts [most easily with the app], but the blade color stays the same purple - with the blue flash on deactivation...I don't use purple, so you can imagine my frustration... Oh, and full normal function resumes if I shut down and remove the card, then reboot. Female voice and color change as well... I know it's a lot, and I apologize...but I really wanna make progress on this, as I have a Xeno[hopefully 3] board Luke saber from RotJ WITH a pixel blade coming at the end of this week, and I REALLY wanna just override the whole 'changeable font' thing to lock it into a green saber with the most authentic Luke font I can find. I ordered it specifically to be my Luke RotJ saber, and nothing else...please help in any way you can. Oh, and since you recommended it to someone else, I was gonna look at that group...but I don't have social media. I'm not a fan. Sigh. Thanks in advance, even if you don't answer. I appreciate you doing your best to get this information out there...
The fisrt time I changed my saber it said charging I had to. Leave it for about a montg now when I plug it in no charging sould can the battery be so dead it won't charge do I need a new battery or is my saber completly broke
I would like to ask if you have a problem with the lever pulled off or moving when you hold the blaster upside down or sideways? Thanks.
Hi. The lever on mine stays in place until you move it. There is no movement simply by twisting the blaster sideways or upside down. I hope this answers your question.
Great review again Paul. I have this saber and its fab i do need the font though 😊
Hey Sheena, great to see you took a look at this one. I love Kyberphonics fonts as they are usually all you need for Xeno3. Blind Cowboy is a great font which I wholly recommend. I am looking for additional Kanan quotes to enhance this further but no luck so far. It's a little bit odd to me that such a popular character is under represented as far as sound fonts go. I would love more😃
Solid review Paul, glad the weathering is better on the Shin. I enjoyed the fonts and the extra info also and love that PO will load them for you if you need it. My only feedback would be I'd like to see the saber closer up in your reviews if possible please 😊 I've got the TXQ Shin and went with Ksith fonts on mine this time round. When I've weathered it I will share pics
Hi Sheena, I'm glad you liked the review. The weathering is definitely far less dense than on the Baylan which is good. I will have to see what I can do to get some closer views of the hilt in the future. Still learning all this stuff and limited in equipment lol. Don't want to spend a fortune on equipment as I would rather spend the money on stuff to review😉 The channel is really just a hobby for me and a way to share knowledge and ideas. I love both the KSith and Kyberphonics sound fonts, although I find Kyberphonics a little more complete, especially for Xeno3. I look forward to seeing you Shin saber when it is weathered.
I'm sure I grabbed the ksith fonts in a sale so next time kyberphonic has one I will most likely grab those also. I really enjoy your channel Paul I've just got a back log of stuff to watch lol 😊
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I recently got a new xeno3 saber and I accidentally entered multiblock mode and couldn’t figure out how to get out! Thanks!
That is great, I am so pleased this video helped you solve the difficulties you were having with your saber. That is really what I want this channel to be all about, helping others with saber problems and giving them an accurate idea of what to expect when they buy a Nexus saber. Awesome! and I hope you really enjoy your saber now it is working again😄
A few thoughts. I owned most of these (except Bigfoot). Maskatron was a bit of a bust. His limbs would fall off a lot. Most of Steve's outfits were boring lesiure suits, not a lot of undercover looks for a spy figure. The Jaime doll was pretty awesome except for the hair which would bush up and get tangled. The Fembot doll was pretty awesome. It has different faces you could swap and even a red wiglet and hood. The Oscar doll's exploding briefcase was dangerous. You could barely get it closed without it flying open in your face.
Once they add a flicker blade style (hopefully) the xeno3 will be a perfect budget board
Yeah, it's getting more capable all the time😄
Love this video. I just ordered one. Thank you!!
Thank you for taking a look at the video. I like nothing more than to hear that someone, like yourself, has been inspired by a video I have made. It's what I want the channel to be all about, sharing knowledge and inspiring others😄. Enjoy your Maul Saber when it arrives, its crazy!!!😀
Great video, thanks Paul! That's a lovely blade colour! What's the RGB code if you don't mind my asking?
Thanks for taking a look, I'm glad you enjoyed this one. The colour is the custom blue that I chose for all my Obi-Wan sabers. Its RGB code is (32,158,230). It's a colour I really love so I hope you can make use of it and enjoy it as much as I do.
Hi Paul! Great review as always, this hilt was my favorite growing up during the prequels
Thank you. I'm glad you found the review interesting. I really love this saber hilt design too. Even though I use my Obi-Wan Ep.3 more when I am costuming this design is really my favourite. I love how it looks.
Brilliant in depth stuff mate always a good watch keep it up 👍
Thank you so much for the positive feedback. I'm glad you enjoyed the video I try to make them entertaining but they are all about the information shared really. There should be a couple more saber videos dropping soon so keep an eye on the channel😉.
What about the metal rings that come in a bag I didn't see anything about them and how to use them
Hi and thanks for taking a look at the video. I think the rings you are talking about are the thin metal rings know as timing shims. They are used between two parts of the hilt that screw together in order to alter how those pieces align with each other when tight. That would not have been talked about in this video as it is all about how to get your Xeno based lightsaber to play music. I hope this answers your question.
Great review champ…beautiful saber, so happy to have this in my collection! 🎉😊
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed the review. this is a really nice saber and like yourself I'm pleased to own one.😄
Thanks for the great review. Definitely considering getting one of these now that they've made the improvements. I recently got the updated Obi Ep1 hilt - this one has also been updated, and includes a better activation button plus a screen accurate blade plug (shame the Qui didn't get one). The one big down-side with the new Obi 1 though has to be the volume - the sound venting on the pommel isn't great, rendering it definitely a much quieter sound.
Hi and thanks for the positive feedback. This is a great update from the previous Qui-Gon hilt nexus produced and well worth a look. I also have the new Obi-Wan EP1 which there will be a video on soon. I know what you mean about the sound venting it could definitely be better. Thanks again for taking a look I really appreciate it.
@@paulsstuff1969You may want to think about looking at the new edition of the Shin Hati too, when Padawan receive it.
@@theresevoerman7109 Yeah I've been thinking about getting the Shin as well, but I am currently waiting on PO to ship out the newer version of the Kanan Jaras to me. They are away at a Comi-Con this weekend and with the bank holiday here in the UK it's not likely to ship until at leat Tuesday lol.
