OBi Wans Saber in On Location 21
OK, well TFN and JediNet say it's a different saber but I don't think it is. If you haven't seen the latest Episode-II On Location that first line won't make any sense.
Basically Ahmed has interviewed Nash Edgerton, stunt double for Ewan McGregor and during the segment the camera man pans down to Nash's right hand which is holding a lightsaber hilt!
Personally I think that StarWars.Com are just pulling a fast one. I am 99.99999% sure that the hilt is the original Episode-I prop and not the one we will see in Episode-II. TFN and JediNet have other ideas but if you compare what's in the video with pictures from Episode-I resources you will see the match.
Just MHO...

I was too busy noticing how dazed he seemed...Am I the only one who noticed that?...
And yeah...it would see like that was a purposeful slip.

It's just Qui-Gon's saber from another angle, RC.

I think you have sabres confused. It does NOT look like Qui-Gon's sabre at all!!!! It looks a heck of a lot like OB1's sabre in Ep1 that Maul kicked down the shaft though. RC's site demonstrates it quite clearly.
It does make me wonder where OB1's sabre in ANH comes from. It seems as if he looses a lot of sabres in his life.

I think this is just a ploy by LFL to try and confuse us. Either that or Obi Wan loved his saber so much that he just had to build another identical one.

The saber in my image is OBI WAN KENOBI's Saber, Not Qui Gon Jinns
And why are you posting links to my banner ads???? Weird.
If you look at Qui Gonn's saber, as shown in THIS pic from when Liam Neeson announced it was being auctioned compared with the screen capture from TFN.

You can quite clearly see that this is NOT the same saber as Nash Edgerton was holding nor the one in my comparison pic which came from the Episode-i insites guide.
If you look at pictures of Obi Wans saber from the VD or the IG you will see that it IS the samre saber or a very, very close likeness of that saber. It is mostly sliver while QGJ's was mostly black and didn't have the little nobbled sphere at the end.

I know I'm right, but the one on the left (From OL21) is identical to the one seen falling down the shaft in TPM.

RC,On your site, the top and bottom pictures are of Qui-Gon's saber. The one in the select may not be,but they still look similiar.That is all I meant.

EJ, the pic on my site is NOT Qui Gons saber, it's Obi Wans. Look at the Liam pic above, he's holding QG's saber and it is nothing like OB1. Why not just admit you're wrong.
Every one knows it but you.
QG's saber did not have the nobbled ball at the end, OB1 did.
Just to labour the point further, here's another set of comparisons from the Episode-I insiders guide with both QG and OB with thier sabers

Wow, well done RC. I'm truly impressed and I agree with you. Mind you though, QGJ's sabre was not entirely black just from one side. But it doesn't look anything like either sabre OB1 has hade in the PT so far. I have QGJ's sabre as a toy, which looks very much like the real one. That's why I know it quite well, one side is entirely silvery, from the other side it looks black. But your last pic shows that already.
I guess that last pic settles it. It looks like OB1 has a new sabre, much like the old one. I really wonder when and how he's going to lose this one and whose he fashions his ANH sabre after. Dooku's perhaps?

I still think Lucas is trying to pukll a fast one with that video and that was actually the Ep1 prop we saw.

So what happened to Master Jinn's lightsaber?
Okay, we all know that Ben isn't using Master Jinn's lightsaber in episode 2. So what happened to Master Jinn's lightsaber? Was it cremated with Master Jinn? Taken apart and "recycled" for Ben's new lightsaber? Destroyed? Enshrined? Does Anakin use it before his blue saber (that Luke used later)?
