Illuminous is Tim’s second MHS custom lightsaber, built in 2010 as the sister saber to his first lightsaber, Xiphias.
The design and even two of the parts are the same; the differences are in the emitter, pommel and grip design.
It only saw real stage use in 2010, above all at the first Legoland Deutschland event and at the Fantasydays. After that it was used again and again as a backup lightsaber in shows.
It originally had a Crystal Focus Saber Core V4, which has since been upgraded to the V10.
Illuminous was rarely used in shows, but is still part of Tim’s collection, even if less well known.
Current specifications:
- Hilt from the Modular Hilt System (MHS) by thecustomsabershop.com
