thanks for bringing these to my attention. Was thinking of getting the Matrix Sword but these must be plastic, which will be a lot nicer to figures' arm joints. Also, the blue and purple are all glowy gummi goodness.

edit: for the record, TFSource have them up for preorder too
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Prowl, Astrotrain, Ramjet, Skywarp, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Blurr, Perceptor, GDO Wheelie and Springer, or 3rd Party Motobot Arcee, FP Springer, iGear Ratchet and Ironhide, City Commander (and/or Ultra Magnus), Starscream (deluxe) Coronation add-on, or Spike and Daniel in their Exo-Suits.

:-?
Are we talking about the Star Sabers produced by Dr Wu?
http://www.seibertron.com/energonpub/dr-wu-tp08-sky-breaker-t90229.php
Was there ever confirmation what these are made out of; metal or plastic?
If they are plastic (or a mix), are the blades clear/translucent?

A see through blade would of course make perfect sense as a chromed/coloured metal blade would look odd and be too heavy, if their Metal Storm blaster is anything to go by? :???:

Also if these are plastic... why is chrome plastic more expensive then diecast? Is that just the norm?

Companies use poor metals (aluminum, copper) in die-cast. If toys are actually chromed with chromium, then it is going to be relatively more expensive.

Weapon: Battle Blades
Just preordered all 3 from TFSource! The gray and blue ones for FE OP, the purple one for SG Battle Tanker OP.

I love that these swords are 17cm. They're taller and heavier than the average deluxe and cost about the same!
