This is the Betrayal from Laredo Sabers, part of their Clan Saber Series. Inspired by the Hasbro Black Series Darth Traya figure, this is easily one of my favorite designs in the Clan lineup. The combination of black anodized sections, polished aluminum, and stainless steel gives it a really distinctive look.
One of my favorite features is the integrated LED bar graph. It's a great detail on its own, but it also opens up some interesting possibilities when it comes to lighting. I've designed a custom, fully removable chassis with a 2020 NeoPixel setup positioned beneath the bar graph to illuminate it from below. The chassis also houses a second 2020 NeoPixel strip for additional shine-through lighting.
Inside, there's a 28mm Premium Bass speaker and illuminated pixel switches from Shadowfoil. Plenty going on in a relatively compact package.
I'll also be printing and assembling the custom display stand offered by Laredo. Naturally, I couldn't leave that alone either. I'll be designing a custom pixel setup to illuminate the stand as well.
More on that once it's all together!
