To me the inner saber looks repro. The bend is weired and its only one. I also think the inner saber is always paler then the outer part!

Actually the bend is what makes me think it's legit Wolff. When a DT saber is in its "original" state that's about the place it would be sticking out so , if it bent, the stress line would be about there.

Anyone agree?

I agree....but I would also bend my fake at this place. And I think in this case it looks like its not exactly at the right position...or???

I never saw an inner saber with just one bend....they are mostly wavy and bended a few times. The color looks also odd IMO.

Are you asking about it's legitimacy?

If so my personal opinion is it's good. The Luke could be a replacement (Correct COO but usually its the lighter pants color but I dont think anyone cares) but the saber has that classic stress bend , color looks good as well. The crack isn't great if you display it extended of course but IMHO I'd say legit 100%

The bend has nothing to do with legitimacy - you can easily bend repro sabers the same way - as Wolff mentioned and my EB bagged DT is not bended.
I have seen quite a lot DT sabers up till now - imo you cant verify this saber from the pics.
There are different inner and outer sabers and pretty good HQ DT's around as well. I would need some makro pics to verify this one.

Colors of the DT sabers can vary also - there is no across the board or golden rule for that.

take care
