Can it hold a lightsaber?

light saber might be too thin circumference wise to effectively be held by this frog. It can be tightened but only minimally.

It would; however you wouldn't be able to draw it out. It's designed to go over a sheath of a standard sword or cutlass and hold it in place when drawing the blade itself

It's doubtful. The stand is very sturdy, but it's lightweight and clearly meant for light items. The "arm" at the top which actually holds the lantern is retractable. That's the weakest point...I wouldn't risk it.

It would hold it but I think it would tip over just based on balance proportion. Also you would have adhere it. I had to adhere the pad to feel secure about it being in this stand.

Possibly but I don't think its deep or stable enough to hold anything large or heavy.

Yes, it can, but keep an eye on it because it is easy to loose it. Nothing holds it from falling off the gun! I lost my......

Yes, but you want to be careful about the arm you buy. This unit is a little heavy. I broke the mount on the arm I bought and had to make some modifications to make it hold still.

Yes! It holds a lg tablet either vertical or horizontal. It is a very strong and supportive arm.

I don't see why not. These stands are universal and as long as you can balance it anything can be displayed. Lightsabers, Shinai, Katanas and it's smaller and larger counterparts, I've seen people display European longswords on these. I think the only weapon you might have trouble mounting on this would be a fencing foil and a rapier, as their weight distribution is kinda odd.

No you cant. It is designed to hold the iPad directly. And remember this is for the iPad 2 & 3 only. NOT the iPad Air!

I'm using mine with a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 with a Spigen Tough Armor case. If it can hold that, I imagine it will hold just about anything.

Yes. I use it mainly with my iPhone6, and my 4s when I had it. It can hold anything from 2 inches to about 4 inches.

Yes, it will. It will technically hold ANY figuarts figure. However, the "energy footprint" effects might be a bit big for regular Figuarts. But the rest of the stand will work fine

I don't see why not. The piece is designed to hold a light or laser. I'm sure flip up sights or mounted sights would work as well. It comes with the bolts and nuts. Loctite the piece wouldn't hurt if you are afraid of it working loose, but I don't see that happening.

Not well at all I'm afraid. This item wasn't designed to do what you're suggesting. This was meant to hold reflectors and for that, it does a great job. For your needs, may I suggest you doing a search for "Kupo Baby Boom" or "Avenger Mini Boom". Keep in mind, that these are just arms and will require a lightstand. Finally, please do sandbag your lightstand, whether you go with a metal boom arm or a plastic one, the weight of the strobe in a softbox could be enough to topple it the entire set-up. ---Update--- So rather than give you an answer based on my assumptions, I pulled this out, put it on a lightstand and gave it a go. The end of the arm is thinner at the end but for what I'm not sure. It's way too thin for an umbrella bracket, but I put mine on anyways and I tightened it. Now it does fits, but I wouldn't call it a snug fit. Next I put my speedlight on the umbrella. It's doable at this point BUT... next I extended the arm about 3 feet and this is where I start to get nervous. The arm is bending slightly. My gear wouldn't feel safe if I extended it further. Add a softbox on it and it will fall apart from the umbrella mount. I'm sure you could McGuyver a solution but you're better off sticking to a metal boom arm.

I doubt it. The back bracket wouldn't stay in place or support the weight. I ordered a different one that cost a little more and am quite satisfied. They were quite good about arranging the return and refund. I bought a PDP Kinect TV Mount.

not sure what the maximum weight capacity of the sliding ring clamp that holds the articulating arm is, but mine is holding a 9.5 pound 23" LCD w/ 100mm VESA mounts without and issues.

no if you have a wingnut or similar for your lightstand it will work to hold this on... although the weight alone should be enough
