Found this one on a vader with coo 13. The saber is red transparent. I've seen pretty many repro sabers but this one is odd imo.

Yeah I figured I would post a pic and see if someone else got a similar one. If it is a repro or belongs to something else. It got the basic shape of a telescopic saber but the part where you push to slide it is not round, but very edgy. Could be homemade but its not resin and it looks very tasty, like those candy threads, with the elephant on.

Home made from 'pick up sticks' or left overs from a plastic model ?

Yeah I was thinking something like that, sadly my camera can't pick up the details on them, they are transparent. I don't know how the grip is done, but I am pretty sure the tip is made by heating up the plastic and then dragging it out a bit, leaving it thinner in the end. No idea what material it is though, looks like candy.
