I was wondering how they'd do the crossguards lightsaber. Looks like if you were to flip the blade you'd get a jesus-saber.

My favourite part about this is that it looks like they've made stud shooter rifles with existing pieces. That's super clever.

Does the pilot's cabin on the top of that thing remind anyone else of a small car ferry? Maybe a construction crane...
