Beam Sabers
first two on the left from 2003. and the four in the right are from 2013 in which 2 hand sabers and 2 for the bucue
the burst effect from 2003 was removed in 2013
Flight Unit and Bucue Head
this was new in 2013 hence that's why it's called flight unit.
Hand
2003 had a hand for the rifle.
2013 had 2 open hands
Gerbara Straight [Katana]
This was the most controversial part, 2003 had a Platinum Katana while 2013 had a grey one. The Details on the Katana were all stickers in which yes, it sucks. For those people who were actually thinking of kit bashing both for the Katana, you might need to change the hands as well. The 2003 Katana although actually good have a much bigger hilt than the 2013 Katana. At the same time the designs on both units are different.
