I am blown away.

After removing the shroud, It was like gazing upon a hidden treasure!


This video shows what the Scorpion is REALLY made of, and I hope many of you find this helpful

EDIT: I just found out that the emitter separates from the large window piece as well!!

Wow! Had no idea there were so many parts in that saber.

Can you show us what the scorpion looks like without the claw?

WOW. Now I want to buy this just as a body or as MHS parts.
I want US to sell those parts and the pommel on the custom saber section.

Oh is it a MLS or a LED module?
It looks like a MLS

Nice video, I love seeing how it comes apart.  Probably a silly question, but how did you get the switch off in order to remove the shroud?

I used a mini flat head screw driver and carefully did the rest with needle nose pliers, then snipped the wires

eerockk just brought it to my attention that it would be A LOT easier to add a JST quick connector to the switch to make things easier

Not to be a downer but the AV's are much more difficult to remove. They usually are secured in the hilt with a nut on the backside of the switch (inside the hilt)

And I believe they glue it into place to make the nut stay put.

Yeah thats the downside with AV's.... they are a pain to install and uninstall if you use the bezel & nut method
