I placed my order on 14 May 2021, received an email following up that the hilt I wanted was delayed by a few months due to COVID affecting parts availability. They offered a range of different hilts but none were want I wanted so I decided I was happy to wait. I was informed it would not be ready ion that case until October. Then, end of June my dream lightsaber arrived! So much faster than expected even with the COVID delay! I was overjoyed, the quality was magnificent and it is now one of my prized possessions!
