Most likely it's a second blade that they prototyped out, the layout on paper shows only one blade. Probably trying to work out the best sword length for both Saber and Star Saber.

Probably one for each form so that Star Saber's sword doesn't feel too short for him but also Saber's sword doesn't feel too long. It's a common tactic.

That's what I was assuming, but Hasbro never mentioned two swords during the funding stage as far as I'm aware. So I think they might have either tossed one in as a bonus, or the others are right and it's two halves of the same sword, or they're still working on the length

I recall when they showed the resin prototype originally that they were working on making the sword so it could be oriented either way (parallel or perpendicular) within the hilt. It is possible that doing that required more than a 2 piece blade and the 2 pieces seen here plus the small part to the left make up the whole thing.

I imagine with a project as extensive as VS, they will make absolutely sure the molds come out right. Still, if they follow this procedure on all their items, it raises even more questions about what happened with Jackpots head.

Probably only tested the parts they planned to use for Jazz so they never actually tested Jackpots head the first time. When they realized there were mold issues there it was a little late and way too expensive to fix the mold just for his head. I'm still trying to figure out why they made his head in three parts instead of two as normal or even one. Even Jazz's head is a normal front and back set of parts instead of both sides and the face. Failed experiment I guess.

Hasbro Shows us some of the Tooling for Victory Saber
Posted by william-james88 Thu Dec 23, 2021 4:16 pm
Motto:
"'till All Are One"
Hasbro has given us another update on the making of Victory Saber. this one shows the tooling involved for some of the red plastic. This is the mold that will be used over and over again to give the plastic it's shape and the image gives us an idea of how massive it is.
“As you can see from these images, the tools for Victory Saber are being prepped. Tools are giant slabs of steel, sculpted with laser etching to cut piece cavities in the molds. At this point in the process, tools will be polished and cleaned in order to make sure all of the pieces come out of the molds intact.
When we lay out molds, we group by what colors each piece is needed to be molded in. The mold pictured is for one of the red molds, and all of these red pieces will be part of the V-Star Jet, Autobot Saber, and the merged Star Saber figure.”

Yes, the email was a nice way to begin the morning. It appears that progress is going well. usually packaging is not something we see until almost the end of the process. I don't think they are ahead by any means, but it is nice to see.
Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the only Haslab to have a significant delay so far is the Razorscrest. (from fall 21 to spring 22). As long as I have VS by end of this calendar year in hand I'll be happy.
