Suggestion Box/Wishlist: what do we want from Ultrasabers?

[Infinit01]

It'd be hard not to join the line up if these hit the store.

Agreed. UltraSabers typically do things behind the scenes so we won’t know what they’ll do until they announce it with the element of surprise

I think they should just focus on making the sabers from the movies, instead of going into the animated stuff, at least for right now.
I mean we still need sabers from Obi-Wan, Anakin, Darth Sidious, Count Dooku, Yoda, and these are just the movie characters that come to mind.
Then they could move into the animated stuff.
But, I'll want whatever saber they announce next, I just know it.

One thing I've always wished for was color options on the LE variants of the V3, V4 and V5 sabers.   It would likely come with an up-charge, and that would be OK, but how about a Dominix V4 LE with red or blue or yellow?   Aeon V4 LE with dark blue or red or green?  Similar with the new V5s...   The multi-color options on the claws of the Aeon/Dominix V5s is closer, but it would be nice to get more.   Or even just a Sentinel V5/Aeon V5 LE "black" option....

More metal colors. Bronze, Brass, Copper, Gold, Black Chrome.

And not just accents but the entire hilt

I would like a mix, but multicolor anodize is difficult (if possible) and pricey.

I completely agree.
They should focus on the movies and then the animated stuff.  Start with the more well known sabers and move on from there.
I still want every saber they offer in my collection.

The problem is that not all sabers are capable of being easily fabricated or able to be made to combat specs.

Logos makes a very valid point here

[Edon Bluewolf]

I just want the Azure Omen to come back in stock at the same time as the next raffle, is that too much to ask?

Actually, I have to disagree with Darth Logos here.  Everything can be manufactured, it just takes a different approach some times.
Yoda's saber for example is very possible, but may not be able to house all of the electronics options.  There may only be two options, stunt, and diamond.  Just look at the V3 sabers if you doubt me.  It's very possible that the saber would be slightly larger than what Yoda actually had, but I'm ok with that.
Dooku's saber is possible as well, I mean Hasbro did it back in the day, and the saber contained two C cell batteries and all of the electronics.  Although it wasn't a true curved hilt, more of an angled one.  If US did a Dooku saber like they did the Mantis, I'd be very happy with that.
So, as a friend of mine always says.  "Never say never."
May the Force be with you always.

The emphasis was supposed to be on "easily". I've seen replica sabers made, so obviously they can be manufactured. But one thing that makes Ultrasabers so great is that they don't cost an arm and a leg, 2 mortgages, and your first born. The problem I have with all the replicas US has been cranking out is that in order to offset costs from producing them, they have raised the costs of lesser sabers. (There are probably other reason mixed in, but I'm not opening that can-o-worms.) Keep that in mind when you're demanding more replicas. US has a reputation to uphold by producing combat sabers. So when they produce a replica it has to be combat grade. Otherwise some net loser will end up butt hurt and start ranting on YouTube that US turns out falsely advertised products despite forewarnings that particular models are not combat grade.

I miss the good ol' days when replicas were few, and the menu was dominated by original designs.

I'd like to see more original designs too. Though, I might be slightly biased, as the majority of my collection are Ultrasabers Originals, with only a handful of "replicas." Original designs are what set companies apart, more so than who can better replicate an existing design.

Plus, maybe some updates to existing original designs. The Standard Issue, Liberator and Prophecy are all stuck in the V3s, which are fine but they can't even take an Obsidian and an Emerald at the same time. The only one of those where length is an issue is the Prophecy, but a redesign could fix that. The other two (and all the V3s) simply lack the electronics space due to how deeply bored the end of the hilt is.
