EMAILS TO WINNERS TO FOLLOW.


Thank you to everyone who entered.  And congratulations to all the winners and of course... PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN!

61! Wow! You guys are nuts! (In a good way, obviously!)

Congrats to all the winners!

WOO HOO  ;D ;D ;D

Third prize...... WOW, awesome, sooo cool, and I'm sooo lucky...... That's 3 prizes out of 3 raffles......  :D

Congratulations mccormickl
Congratulations MikaelPfeffer
Congratulations to all the winners  :)

Krivences! 61?! You guys are nuts.

On a side note: YAY! 4th place!

Congrats to all the very fortunate winners.  Just wow.  Thanks US!  Congrats to some of the new raffle entrants, and to some of you old dogs out there too!


*****************************


Well I couldn't enter this time, but on behalf of those who did I started a pics thread in the Gallery forums for you guys to show us all this new lightsaber hardware.  Again, congrats all!

WOO! Thank you guys so much!! I never win anything, so entering my first Ultrasabers contest and getting fourth prize feels like a first prize for me and reassures my future luck! Very excited to see what I get and congrats to all the other winners! Ultrasabers, you guys rule! Pics will come as soon as it comes in.

WOW!!! I can't believe I actually got picked! US, you guys are the best around, for sure. Mahalo plenty to all of you. To all the other winners out there, much respect to you and your winning. For everyone out there, don' t think its not possible to be picked in these drawings. If I as a first time buyer can be picked anyone can. Keep the faith, and MTFBWY!

Woohoo! 4th prize in my first ever raffle :)

I'm normally very meticulous and picky about which styles and colours I like, but I have to admit that the excitement of not knowing what I'll get in the mail is kind of fun, especially as it's free!

I feel really grateful winning, an really happy to be getting my first saber with sound. I just worry that I'll not be able to go back to stunt sabers after experiencing the feeling that sound will bring to wielding a saber. It will be my third saber for me personally, though I have purchased some for my friends as well. I just want to thank everyone at Ultrasabers for their excellent products and awesome specials.

Thanks so much Emory and Ultrasabers for the 4th place win and your generosity.  Congratulations to all.  This is my third or fourth raffle entry so know what it is like to be on the other side of the fence.  Will happily await for my stunt and chosen saber.   :D

Wow, thank you all guys. That is superb and has made my day.

I love the fact that you upped the number of prizes - the Force is strong with you!

As a newcomer here, I am loving the experience and the products.

Can't wait to get my prize, and see what is in that big long box.

Thanks again , signing out from England.

Congrats to all the winners! I'm looking forward to seeing them all in the gallery at some point :) I wonder if there's any secret new hilts this time. 61 prizes however, wow. I'm always impressed every time you up the amount. Its wonderful to know you guys love the community so much to do something like this.

And hey, Darth Logos you were right, it must have been an omen as you won a prize!

Holy crap! 0_0 First prize!? I never expected to win THAT! This is awesome!

Congrats to all the winners. Nicely done ultrasabers for increasing number of winners.

Now please put another promo up cause I have just been paid today, and I want to order my bellicose.

Just a question, do the winners have to pay postage?

Hi Flaekingr.  No winners do not have to pay for shipping.  The prize will be added to the saber order box unless the entry saber was sent earlier and prior to the raffle drawing.  International Customs and other FedEx surcharges is the responsibility of the buyer.   :)

Well dang. I'm not going to say I wasn't dissapointed my names not on the prize list. Check once every hour I couldn't sleep. Told my wife it's the first and only raffle I'll enter and I'm proud of my saber purchases. Mostly because I have enough now for my kids to enjoy also. Thanks US for making a great product.

thanks Mr Emory and team for the wonderful increased number of prize winners! I'm pretty stoked that i won something! not knowing what random hilt or features added is exciting!

Congratulations to all the winners :-)

If you didnt win anything dont be too disappointed.
Of course I wish I was one of the winners (4th raffle, nothing yet)
I still have my RGB Overlord coming soon :-)

I think for the most part they try and keep the orders the winners used to enter, depending on how close to the deadline is to the raffle, and combine them both so you're just paying for the one shipment of the original. That's just what I think though so I may be wrong!

What an awesome morning treat! Congrats to all winners!

Sixty-one prizes? Ultra sabers always impresses. I'm happy to be a third place winner!

Guys, this is the time whereby I'm stoked and excited as well! ;D priority shipping for the win! Expect a photo review from me when i receive my hilts!  ;D

I am really really happy! Everything is going well this 2 weeks for me! Finally getting a more permanent job, winning a raffle, getting sabers from a great company! Woohoo!

Yes! Happy dance! Thank you Emory and US!
Y'all are awesome and have awesome products!
We will continue to support and help this company
grow, because you guys rock! Congrats to all
the winners! Christmas in April!

(Stunned silence then a yell when reading the email from Emory....twice...)

First raffle with US, hundreds of losing raffles in 50 years since I won that Cap'n Crunch drawing contest..... Thanks UltraSabers for an awesome product, great people and raffles, and enabling even us OFs to recapture a time long, long ago!

Grand Prize email reply sent....

WOOHOO. The 4th was with me. (4th raffle entry)

Congrats to all the winners.

AWESOME!!! Just a few days ago I ordered my first saber(Chosen One Emerald- SE)  from US and now I just won third prize....THANK YOU ULTRA SABERS...This is an outstanding company!  I will definitely be back!

Congratulations to all the winners and thanks to UltraSabers for another raffle prize. 

That is funny.

2nd Prize for me thanks to the order for my very 1st saber (which should arrive in the following weeks).

Nice way to start the day.   ;D

Wait . . . That's me under the First Place heading?

 :o

Yes. Thats you! To confirm again, Check your email. Ultrasabers should have already sent you an email informing you of your win! Cheers bro! ;D

All I can say right now is . . .

First- a heartfelt THANK YOU to Emory & UltraSabers for doing this; it would be incredibly generous if they did it just once a year - but as often as they do?!  I don't even look that often at the Emerald stuff because it's a bit expensive for me for 1 saber, with all our other financial commitments.  

So - to WIN a 2-channel Emerald?  Just unreal.

Thank you again - so much.

Second - I think this sums up my feeling this morning, picking up our newborn daughter (the Saber I ordered her won me the prize) and then seeing that I won an Emerald Saber:



(http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag93/Lord_Canterbury/image.jpg1_zpslx5xsg0a.jpg)

Hahah! At least you know you have a 2 channel emerald drive. I'm in for a surprise and yes i like surprise gifts! Especially the word, "Random Hilt with Random features with Obsidian Sound"

I am very happy and excited to see what it is when it arrives!  :D

Thats why i say, I support Ultrasabers!  ;D

Dont forget to reply Mr Emory and team! ;)

And that is exactly how I would react to such awesome news!  Congrats MikaelPfeffer!






This made my morning a little brighter!  Haha!

Awesome!!! 4th place and I'm really happy Thanks Ultra! ;D

Everything is indeed awesome! ;D First place win!

Thank you UltraSabers!

Congratulations to the other winners!

Is this your first Emerald saber?  Your list indicates single colors . . .

This was my first raffle fourth prize I am very happy😀
Thanks Ultrasabers

Well I'm in for pretty much the same surprise- it could be any 2 colors, any Hilt, any features - can't wait to get that box!!!

To quote Willy Wonka:

"The suspense is terrible; I hope it'll last."

 ;)

Congrats to all of the winners. Sixty one sabers. Wow. Wish I could've entered this one. I wonder who will get the secret 4-Channel sabers instead of the 2-Channels!

Second place prize!  Thanks again, Emory, I have three new sabers on the way.  Excited for my dark prophecy, my dark sentinel, and my prize saber!  Reviews will be forth coming!  Congrats to everyone!  :)

I predict a Shock LE in FO!  :D

Just kidding.  Hope you get something you want and congratulations on yet another raffle win.   

I won a second prize last time and couldn't quite make it due to funds this time, but I am SO happy to see so many of my dear friends have won something!!  61 sabers?!?!  US is freakin' INSANE!!  That's why I keep coming back for more.  :)

Molina.  You are entering into dangerous territory.  ;D  Prowl has so many sabers.  They may need to create a new color just for him.  ;)  This prize win and video is one that I will definitely be looking out for.  :D

I'm looking forward to seeing the exclusives! And possibly receiving one!

Locutis.  Congrats on your fine win.  Humility doesn't roll well on this forum unless you want to be any jealous Sith's lunch.  This is your time to shine and give a big lucky me shout out.  Good luck with an exclusive and you have already hit a jackpot.   ;D

Congrats to everyone and thank-you Emory and US for putting this raffle on.  61 Sabers-that is a lot.  I cannot wait to see the results and I will be posting mine as soon as they arrive.

I can imagine that the shop at US will be buring the midnight oil for the next few days.
r/
Ark

After his unboxing video where he got exactly that as a prize, I couldn't help myself.  :P

Thanks Seven, congrats on your win too! I love when US releases a new saber, but I'd imagine it would be so much cooler pulling one out of the box and saying "What the frack is this?!? :o".

Trust me, it is ;D Some folks are going to get very lucky, and hopefully they're ready to be bombarded with the level of questions julmax usually gets!

Anyway, I have my shipping notice: 48 hours to go! US move fast!

Like you James, I just got my emailed shipping notices!  Can't wait!

I concur. It would be a helluva(n) experience to pull out a hilt that you've never seen and the spend the next half hour search ing for your eyes so you can examine it. But I doubt they've done that this time around cuz I didn't see Julmax amongst the winners. She always seems to get the "next big thing" >:(

Lol, if I do I will just except that Emory wants me to have a shock LE staff and buy a coupler.  My order has shipped! 

Just got my shipping confirmation and tracking number.... but no info on it yet. =(

2nd that!! SO EXCITED!!! 1st ever saber (Purchased Chosen One SE Emerald driver and obsidian) and now a third place surprise....SUPER EXCITED I AM

Ooooh, going all Darth Vader over here! Congrats! My entries were my Flamberge LE with Emerald  and Obsidian, and another entry with a Dominix RGB and a Grab Bag for friends, plus a blade and coupler. I scored First Prize myself.

Congratulations to all of the winners!

I can't wait to see what I got as my prize, and also to ignite my first saber with sound. I feel like I want to camp out by the front door.  :)

I'll post pictures and a review of my raffle entry and prize when they arrive.

Thank you Ultrasabers!

Congrats to all of the winners!!

Estimated delivery : Friday 4/17/2015 ;D

It's slow at work right now so I may just take the day off. Three day weekend AND free sabers! :o

Estimated delivery on mine: 4/16. I hope! That'll let me do an unboxing video after work!

Mine are due in Thursday as well, very excited!

Same here - Sabers arriving on Friday.  Which is good timing because my nephews are coming over that afternoon and the package includes their birthday presents; I got them 2 Stunts - an Aeon v4 in GB & a Dominix v4 in BR.

Can't wait to see the looks on their faces - they REALLY want lightsabers!

Which prize did you win? I didn't see on the page.

Yay, got my shipping and tracking emails...... mine due to arrive Wed 22 Apr......  :D

I just looove this feeling of waiting for the surprise.....  :)

Second Place! Random hilt with sound!

Ah! Congrats! Me and my friends are going to do an unboxing video when mine comes in (it has 4 sabers total, one for each of us), and then we duel. Be sure to get some pics of your prize! But i'm sure that goes without saying.

That's amusing.  You haven't seen my youtube page have you? Lol, my US fandom is well known.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTtl0u7wYJpXLNsjODdZTGQ/videos (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTtl0u7wYJpXLNsjODdZTGQ/videos)

I review all of my sabers. :P

Woo Hoo! !   Emerald Prize, My first raffle I've ever won, in the raffle with with the best prizes. I'm doing a happy dance!

First time poster, I've been lurking for a awhile.  I never expected this. I was hoping for one of the random hilts, now I've got an exciting decision to make. Up until now I have only bought stunt sabers. My 10 year old son and I have saber fights and I couldn't justify the expense of sound just to have him break it.  Now I get the ultimate saber all for me, the boy will have to bribe me big time to play with it! The only bad thing is that the spouse asked me if I was done buying light sabers now.  :)

Thanks Emory and everyone at US. Your products are awesome and so is your customer service!

Congrats to all the winners.

Congrats on that emerald prize win!  Can't wait to see which hilts you choose!

Super Congratulations man.......   :D  light side point, just for being the lucky winner...

When you decide on your 2 Emerald sabers pls post pics and share them with us...... We all enjoy seeing everyones prizes......  :)

Congrats to all the winners can't wait to see some pictures and videos!

You better be doing a happy dance, sucka. Congrats.

No, I can't say I have seen your page. =P but consider me subscribed!

2 more days . . . 48 more hours to wonder what my (very generous) prize wil be . . .


(http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag93/Lord_Canterbury/image.jpg1_zpshfbkyemw.jpg)

Congrats guys. I'm looking forward to some epic pictures and reviews! Maybe we'll see some as-yet-announced sabers!

Mine should arrive on Thursday, but I'm out of town at a conference until Monday or Tuesday. The struggle is real.

So, anyone care to speculate what their prize could be? My order weighs in at an even 4 pounds, so I'm guessing there's no Malice or Scorpion in the box :P I get to find out tomorrow... if someone's around to sign for the parcel. Might not be until Monday, otherwise...

I'd be delighted with an Initiate/Apprentice. My youngest is two now, so she'll need her own soon enough. My wife has given me permission to pick one up when I next order something - happily, she's long since accepted that I'm not done buying yet :D

Went and checked mine, James.  With three sabers it's 7 pounds.  So I figure the dark prophecy and dark sentinel I ordered will make up 4 pounds.  Wonder what other saber would weight 3 pounds to account for the difference.

Hi Prowl.  I put my bets on you receiving one of the unique or new styled ones.  Can't wait to see your informative videos either way.  :)

James.  Mine came in at 4 lbs as well.  Expecting an Aeon/Dominix v3 but would be pleased with anything.  Recall Emory replying to someone's  post that no Initiate type sabers were given out in the 2014 winter raffles.

Mine is checking in at an even 10 pounds!  And it's only 2 sabers!?!?  (Kidding.)

That includes . . .

- 3 Stunt Sabers (2 Dominix v4 & 1 Aeon v4)

- 1 Obsidian Saber (Aeon LE v4)

- and my 1st Place Raffle prize.

I really have no clue.  I'd honestly be thrilled with any v4 for the hilt (I've posted about my love for that redesign before) and if it's anything even cooler than that - well, bonus on top of bonus!   ;D

I have no idea what mine could be. The total size of the package it 10 pounds, and if they shipped EVERYTHING togethere, Flamberge+blades, Grab bag+Blade, Dominix+blade, blade plug, grab bag blade, dominix coupler, and my raffle prize+blade, I would think that'd be more than 10 pounds. I don't know what each saber weighs.

A 3 lb saber, could be a Flamberge,
I hope it is. Good luck! I checked mine, 2 sabers
at 4 lbs. Hoping for a Graflex, but doubt it for a
third prize win. I'll find out Friday.  ;D

Awesome! I must say I'm very excited about this. Thank You! Can't wait to see what I won

I'm nominating you're wife for a Nobel Peace prize. That's some real kinsman ship going on. I asked my 5yr old daughter today if she wanted her own lightsaber. She just raised her eyebrow and never answered  ???  C'mon girl!

Thanks man!  Yeah, I enjoy making US reviews.  My camera man says he's up for an unboxing video tomorrow, so we may do one.


I'm up for a prototype hilt if that's what it is.  It would be fun to review one.

I've come to the conclusion that most women (though not all) are born without the "Collecting Stuff " gene.   ;)

Though we were into different things, me, my Dad and my brother-in-law collect stuff.

My wife, Mom & sister - nope, nothing . . . No interest.

My package also weighs at 4 lbs. Hard to tell what it might be! My tracking isn't showing what delivery day I'm looking at, but it sure looks like it might be here tomorrow!

We're going to make one too, if it comes in on time. I can't wait!

And so it appears that most of us have our raffle entry sabers shipping out with our prize sabers and that most of us have the box weighing in at 4lbs. Now I am really curious as to what kind of prize sabers are we getting!


Same here bro! Yesterday night I did a couple of reviews of my ultrasabers and it was fun! Still got to do my review of the Dominix v3 and the Flamberge review tonight! And tomorrow, I will be receiving my raffle entry and prize saber! The archon v2.1 and the raffle prize Saber!

Except that my camera man is my phone and the tripod stand. :-X but hey, it still works! ;D

First off, I'm pretty stoked that my girlfriend and I had a winning ticket out of our two orders, even if it's just a 4th place Grab Bag. It's still really cool to have won anything, especially considering the odds. Based on the tracking information and our past experiences, we should get our package right around 10:15 A.M. give or take a few minutes. The package weighs in at 4lbs, and since it contains a Dark Standard Issue with a Dark War Glaive pommel and a Guardian pommel I know it can't be a heavier saber such as the Scorpion. The only sabers we don't particularly like are the Flamberge and the Omen, and she's not a fan of Darth Maul... she kinda despises him, so no Menace either. I'll post once we get them. Congratulations to everyone who won, and to everyone who didn't, better luck next time.

Mine contains my reaper, menace emitter, guardian pommel, and my third place prize. Weighs in at 5 pounds.

Ok... Decision was reached ( with much input from my wife) regarding what sabers to make my Grand Prize Staff....

Dark Arbiter - Dark Violet Amethyst w/ silver FOC - UEHG 32" - covertec wheel added
Dark Arbiter - Dark Violet Amethyst w/ Bane's Heart FOC - UEHG 32" - covertec wheel added

I'll start saving for the Manticore emitters to customize them for my next order..... Covertec wheels for when seperate (wife really liked the idea of different FOC) and removed when a staff......

Should ship with my wife's Crimson Scorpion for arrival next Tuesday.....


Thanks again to US, for their products, their raffles, and especially, the helpful service! (No matter how many dumb questions you ask.... thanks Emory!)

You lucky turd. I am so jealous. Superb taste though, I have wanted one let alone to be able to staff a Dark Arbiter for some time now, but other shiny things keep distracting me. ::)

Congratulations to all the winners! I am bummed i did not win in vegas so I could not participate this time around! Next time for sure! I am already saving!

Dark Arbiters in DVA will be sensational..... Great choice Mr & Mrs Grey Jedi  :) (2 points coming ur way)

Very nice, Mikael. Dark Arbiters - Arbiters in general - are uncommon hilts, but I think those will look very cool :)

Different FoC for each Arbiter is a great idea, kinda gives each one it's own flavour.  Like James said it's a unique choice to most and will be an amazing Grand Prize.

Pretty savvy choice - the Dark Arbiter breaks down to 4(!!) MHS compatible components, so it's highly customizable!!

Cool choice.  I can't say I would have thought of that - I just would have locked on to a Menace staff without thinking about that stuff.

My package arrived! My order was an all silver Sentinel, and my prize is a very cool plain Aeon v2 in red.

I'll have to get a v2 coupler to pair up my prize with my very first Ultrasaber an orange/red staff should look amazing! I've been thinking for a while of getting another Aeon, maybe an RGB one, so it's an excellent prize for me - and incentive to keep buying! :D

Delighted with my prize, will definitely be sharing pics tonight. Thanks to Emory and co!

Nice!  Glad to hear you got something you really like! 

I just got an e-mail from Fed-Ex confirming my delivery is tomorrow.  Requires an indirect signature so I have to make sure I print & sign the form today to stick on the door - just in case.

That would the be the worst feeling tomorrow; missing the doorbell for some reason and FedEx driving away with my Sabers!!!

Woo Hoo !!!! 2nd place win !!!! Dominix LE4  Thank you Ultrasabers

http://s1382.photobucket.com/user/davidraines3/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2015-04/FAE52C0C-FFDA-4E6B-BA39-A1992CCF5B3A_zpschonfxqw.jpg.html (http://s1382.photobucket.com/user/davidraines3/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2015-04/FAE52C0C-FFDA-4E6B-BA39-A1992CCF5B3A_zpschonfxqw.jpg.html)

Wow - that's a great looking prize! I love the v4 Aeon & Dominix!

You should post that picture (along with your Entry purchase) over in the Winner's Gallery; most members will be looking for these over there . . .

http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=23711.0 (http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=23711.0)


Thanks!   :)

My order arrived 30 mins ago.

I have my Fiery Orange Scorpion with sound and my 2nd Prize a Guardian Blue Archon with sound!

The Scorpion is massive and will take some getting used to inorder to properly handle, the Archon feels super natural to handle.

Will be posting pics in the coming days.   ;D

Hey James,
I love the Aeon/Dominix lines.
I have an RGB Dominix and even though it cant hold sound, it is one of my favorites.
The kids love it too, they are always playing with it :-)
Sifu John

That's some great prize sabers starting to come in.  Glad James got that Aeon he wanted.  That Archon prize sounds great too.  Mine is out on the truck for delivery according to the tracking.  *drums fingers*

I feel your pain. It was in the middle of IL 24 hrs ago. I literally could have driven there, got it, and come back in less than half the time. According to FE tracking, I don't even know if it's in the state yet.

Well my box came in but I haven't had time to open it yet, my gf and I are going out to dinner.  I can say that the box is much wider than a normal box they use.  It's the same size box my omen came in so I'm expecting a large prize saber.

Hmmm . . . is somebody coming home to a Flamberge after dinner?

My official prediction: Flamberge in Fire Orange

Prowl! You're killing me!

Word!

Now that this is mentioned, i noticed my package has different dimensions in the tracking description. Man now I really cant wait!

Unboxing video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_CAkgiq_h0

Haha, you're such a tease, waiting till the last bit to show us  :P

That is incredible...... a black omen hilt with Flamberge emitter........ AWESOME...... congrats man  :)

And... Unless I'm blind (you know us old people).... That's a new style hilt..... As the website shows silver with black/blue/red lines.... Not black with silver......

Congrats Prowl!

Hi Prowl,
I am so jealous :-)
I would have LOVED to win such a unique piece !!
Congrats to you.
:-)

Thats a new style hilt! Congrats prowl bro!

Speaking of which, the box dimensions are a little different from what it used to be!

Just got my prize in today! Second place winner, received a manticore in Violet Amethyst with sound, and white flash on clash! Nicest saber in my collection, I am a really loving that emitter.

Here are a few pictures:

Thanks Emory!

Hi drumwolf22.  What a super prize.  Could be your camera or room dimness throwing off the purple color, but that looks like a dark violet amethyst to me.  Either way it's a beauty and thanks for sharing.   Are you collecting light or dark side appreciation points ?  :)

That's crazy!  Congratulations sir!

I think you might be right! I didn't even know that color existed :) Thanks for pointing that out!

I'd be more inclined towards dark points

Somebody needs to Photoshop Prowl's avatar and that awesome Raffle prize he got into this newly released poster for Star Wars VII . . .

Been tied up playing Mart Kart with the gf.

First I want to give a BIG thank you to Emory and Alex!  I LOVE my second prize saber, my Flamberge! The Omens body and pommel in that Dark LE version go great with the cross emitter!  When I first looked at it I was hoping it would be in BR and it is!!!  I feel very privileged to have been given this saber as my prize, I will be getting a review done for it soon!

I'm also really pleased with my Dark Sentinel in VA, it is my first V4 hilt and it is really comfortable to hold and the windows look great on it.  My gf really likes it too, might have to get her one.  Had a couple issues with the Dark Prophecy but I know Emory will get that fixed, he's always taken good care of me, US has some great customer service!!!

A unique Flamberge? WHAT IS THIS!!!???

Congrats, Prowl!

My raffle prize was an Archon! I gave it to a friend because I promised him the next freebie saber I got would go to him. He helped buy my sister's birthday present (a set of Halo Spartan Armor).

Yes, I know, my face looks stupid here.

So, here's the hilt.

And here's my buddy with his new saber.

I'll post the unboxing video later, and we plan to do a review video.

Ultrasabers, you've done it again! I'm more than pleased with what I got and couldn't be any happier. On the left is my Manticore in blazing red with obsidian sound and VA FOC, high profile pommel, which was my entry saber for the raffle, on the right is my fourth place prize the Dominix V3 in I assume Arctic Blue! Very excited about these and I already feel like buying more sabers! But I need to build up my checking account a little more before I do haha. You can guarantee you'll have more purchases from me in the very near future! Another congrats to all the winners and good luck next time to the ones who were unable to win, anything is possible! Use the force, you must! (https://scontent-lax.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/11130105_10204957871519492_1315765620889878604_n.jpg?oh=9c7ce81d3f638d9611e7f4f60890fd96&oe=55D6B26E)

Ok, i just received my entry and raffle prize. Entry being an archon v2.1 and the raffle prize being a dark sentinel v4.

Surprisingly, for the dark sentinel v4 which comes with an obsidian Soundboard and no FoC. Quite a refreshing hilt!

What are the blade colors? Details, man! :P

Hahaha! sorry bro! almost forgot about it! Was too excited and having fun!

The archon v2.1 is in.... consular green with a yellow av switch. FoC orange, Obsidian v4 soundboard, ultraedge blade, classic pommel, comes with a *holy omg* covertec wheel!!!

The raffle prize, dark sentinel v4 with emitter windows, blazing red, no FoC, obsidian Soundboard, midgrade blade.

For photos, i will upload them later to the gallery!

Gonna do a new ultrasabers review and then upload maybe later at the gallery!

It looks and sound as if there are some sweet prizes being delivered. The ones I have seen so far are most excellent, well done Emory and everyone at US, for being the absolute best. My package should arrive on Monday with my entry and 3rd prize sabers, pics soon to follow :-)

Roughly 2 hours and counting for my Entries & Prize to get here.  I'll post pics ASAP today - going to be a bit of a crazy one with a lot of family visiting.

Someone mentioned a while back about sending a big thank you message to Ultrasabers. Someone wanna start a thread where we can all sign it, or something?

So much for that - they're here already . . .

Need to finish coffee first and let anticipation build.   ;)

Yes - we should start a Thank You - maybe wait until most people have gotten there's.

The email message Mr Emory sent in regards to the prize? I replied to that. But I wouldnt mind the suggestion of a Thank you thread lol. Gonna have to wait till tomorrow before i could take some decent pics of the entry and raffle lightsaber.

Greetings Ultrasabers Family! My two entries into the Spring 2015 Raffle were the first Sabers that I have ever purchased of any kind. I apologize for not having pictures, but I am not familiar with posting images to the forum as I am new.

My first Saber is the Manticore CE in Guardian Blue with Blue illuminated AV Switch and Silver FOC. After seeing all the videos and photos of this Saber, I was most excited about getting this one in, and it does not disappoint. WOW!

The second Saber that I purchased was the Scorpion in Blazing Red with Red illuminated AV Switch and Orange FOC. I must say that after getting this in my hands, it is even more beautiful than what the videos and photos were able to depict. This Saber is absolutely amazing and I find that I like it just as much and possibly even more than my Manticore CE. From top to bottom this Saber is a work of art.

Now, one of these two entries won me a First Prize in the Spring 2015 Raffle. To my surprise I received the Chosen One CE. That's right, the Collector's Edition with Nickel Plating. It has the Silver activation box with non-illuminated AV Switch. As a first prize winner, I expected it to have the 2-channel Emerald Driver. When I first turned it on, the Blade Color appeared to be Violet Amethyst, and pulsed to what looked like a Sentinel Yellow. I didn’t understand how it was possible with a 2-channel driver to get that color combination. I downloaded the Emerald Driver software and hooked up my Saber to the computer and played with the settings. From what I can tell, I received the 4-channel driver as opposed to the expected 2-channel driver. So my First prize was a Chosen One CE with 4-Channel Emerald Driver with Obsidian Sound! All in all I am very pleased.

Thanks Ultrasabers!

Very cool to win! I got both my ordered sabre, a dark menace, and the prize sabre, a dark prophecy hilt.  Thanks so much!

Awodele11 and Dgyre.  Congrats upon your raffle prizes and entry sabers.  Great choices and winning sabers.  Please let the forum know if you are collecting light or dark side appreciation points to get started.  :)

Got a review of my Flamberge prize posted!

http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=23760.0 (http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=23760.0)

Shipping confirmation recieved with Tuesday delivery..... Will be interesting unpacking.... Video promised....

I received my order and raffle saber.

It's a Menace SE! It came with a recharge port, non illuminated A switch, and I think I got a 4 channel Emerald driver! :o  It pulses from red to blue with a green FoC. Love it! Thank you AGAIN UltraSabers!

I'll post pics in the gallery in a few days. ;D

Oh MAN - you scored with that one!! 

I'd call that a "Grand First Prize ".

I'm extremely happy with my 2-channel Crimson Scorpion (can't wait to add an all Silver War Glaive emitter to it as the Pommel) - but I'd be lying if I didn't admit a slight pang of jealousy reading that.   ;)

Congrats - Emory sure is sending out some great prizes for this Raffle!

Also got a review of one of my entry sabers posted.  The Dark Sentinel!

Me and my friends unboxing my Flamberge and Raffle Prize!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyCeL4KDMFs&ab_channel=FlashingBlades (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyCeL4KDMFs&ab_channel=FlashingBlades)

Nice review!  You all are obviously having a great time with your sabers.  Congrats on that Flamberge, it is a great saber!  Always fun to see friends sabering together.

If you wanna see our duels, check out my thread. We have some duel footage of this one. And yes, I like my new Flamberge.

I am extremely jealous. That thing looks so wicked

Guys, the Flamberge type I got in the raffle actually has a listing on the site now!  It's called the Flamberge v2!  The video in it also shows a black anodized Manticore emitter, which looks sharp!

http://www.ultrasabers.com/product-p/sound-flambergev2.htm (http://www.ultrasabers.com/product-p/sound-flambergev2.htm)

Thank you for the heads up!  And new to me on the US website, I found under the Flamberge V2 listing are extra video reviews from customers along with Deep's intro video.  Pretty cool!

Ahhh, that explains it. The Omen look is pretty sweet. I may have to get a V2 at some point.

There is a post started under discussion to
thank Emory

I was a forth place winner and won a random saber. I sent in a initiate (free from previous promo) to get sound added. I had a saber with sound, the raffle prize, and some parts I ordered at my door in less than a week. Emory was very patient with the questions and always quick to respond. A big thank you to ultrasabers. My 10 yo and I battle almost every night.
Evidently I can't upload pictures from tapatalk and forum is blocked from work...
I'll try to get some pictures posted later tonight.

"Cabo5150" - obviously a fan of both lightsabers & Van Halen.  Congrats on your raffle win!

You know it!

Here's my sabers...
Looks like raffle winner is an earlier initiate. I REALLY like the double retaining screws, already swapped them out for thumbscrew style
(http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g137/cabo5150/Light%20Sabers/D6C0138B-A004-4C3C-8EDF-7C7BD153B0C5.jpg) (http://s55.photobucket.com/user/cabo5150/media/Light%20Sabers/D6C0138B-A004-4C3C-8EDF-7C7BD153B0C5.jpg.html)

What kind of Pommel is that on the Initiate V3?

It's one from one of the " other guys " but sure looks good on that v3 Initiate.   :)

I believe what you have there is the original version of the Aeon from UltraSabers (which itself was a silver version of the v2 Dominix).  😀

Here is the pic of my entry and prize saber.(http://i1060.photobucket.com/albums/t458/rozurial82/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150420_230757406_zpskzt4c3ok.jpg) (http://s1060.photobucket.com/user/rozurial82/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150420_230757406_zpskzt4c3ok.jpg.html)

I am still working on figuring the posts out and tweaking my profile so bare with me please. My wife loved the Dark Prophecy v3 in CG, she will eventually be my sparring buddy lol. I modified my Shock with a Malic Round pommel and will be switching out the emmitter for a windowed Manticore emmiter. The weight difference between the two was noticeable but good. All in all, a proud owner!

Great looking pair of sabers there and congrats on you're Prophecy as a prize. I'm a huge fan of the Shock line of hilts.

Entry saber and Grand Prize staff out for delivery..... About another eight hours to go....

Had to see that Black Manticore emitter...... Wow......

When will it be available ?

Here's a screen shot

WHOA WHOA WHOA. Black Manticore Emitter?

The Flamberge V2 is the Omen with a make-over. I'm flattered that they took my suggestion (maybe). Now I have to get another Flam.

PS: Available today

Hey, Rozurial, can we get a pic of just this Prophecy with a green blade? My friend is debating between whether he wants a Dark Prophecy or Dark Liberator, and he wants a green blade.

That's not even a contest, tell him to get the Dark Prophecy.  I didn't care for my Dark Liberator.  Having owned both, I MUCH prefer the Prophecy hilts.

(http://i1060.photobucket.com/albums/t458/rozurial82/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150420_230709834_zps41xak5v0.jpg) (http://s1060.photobucket.com/user/rozurial82/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150420_230709834_zps41xak5v0.jpg.html)
No problem BladeCrossEXE, here ya go. This is a great one handed saber.

Thanks a lot!
And I agree. Before I got my Flamberge, it was my primary dueling saber. I would right hand my Prophecy in one hand, and my Dark Initiate in my left, but I can't dual wield with my new claymore. =/

But my friend is really torn between those two I mentioned, and he said it would come down to which one looks better in green. He's held both, I have one in Red, my sis has one in Violet, and our friend has a Liberator in Orange.

I am glad to have been a help. I need to get myself a single handed now for sure. My Shock can be single handed but not with much dexterity, it has a little weight to it.

Okay..... Here is the entry saber for my wife....

(http://i614.photobucket.com/albums/tt227/Nairdowell/Star%20Wars/Combo%20Scorpion_zpsy3qlqqhd.jpg)

Crimson Scorpion Emerald with sound, Bane's Heart, Orange FOC, Dark Amethyst Pulse.....
She absolutely loves it!

It is a hefty saber... weighing in at 2.5 lbs.... but it's a solid piece of craftsmanship....

And here is my Grand Prize staff....

(http://i614.photobucket.com/albums/tt227/Nairdowell/Star%20Wars/Combo%20Dark%20Arbiter%20Staff_zpsepurqsum.jpg)

Dark Arbiter pair - Violet Amethyst, Silver FOC & Bane's Heart FOC - 7'3" long, 2.75 lbs.... nicely balanced.... very happy Grey Jedi here... lol

That's an absolutely massive staff.
 :o

My Dark War Glaive will be about the same size, but might weigh a little more..... only a couple of inches longer than I've used in the past.....

I'm 6 foot so not too bad... just have to practice, practice, practice.... lol

I barely measure in at 5'8" that thing is intimidating.
 :P

Very very nice MikaelPfeffer..... points to you for your choice sir  :)

And some advice...... when you practice make sure there are no computer monitors any where near you, lol  ::)

MikaelPfeffer, I must say I am wholly jealous sir and give you major props on your choice for your prize! And your wife's Scorpion is exquisite. Well done to you.

Fantastic choices! Seems we have similar taste as my entry was also an Emerald Crimson Scorpion, which I'm loving. And in this latest promotion I've just ordered a Phantom Initiate V3 LE staff for the black + silver look with Dark Violet Amethyst and Hot Pink for the blades. It won't be quite as epic as your staff of course, but hey, we can't all be Grand Prize winners!

^^

At 5"6 I find that staff intimidating as well.  The BH on the scorpion looks redder than usual, is that just the camera?

It may have been in mid-pulse.... BH to DVA....

Intimidating works.... ::)

Sounding off with a note of thanks to Emory and all the folks at Ultrasabers!!  I won a Crimson Reaper with R+B two channel Emerald driver! And it rocks!! The Reaper is a big hilt, but shockingly lithe and incredibly well-balanced. I would never have picked it out on my own, but must say that it is one of the most authentically deadly and quick sabers I have used, and I have used a lot. I am a drama teacher and we are doing Old Republic Shakespeare, and we have about 30 sabers in the show, so I have held a huge variety of them. The Reaper is fantastic for dueling! I would also like to echo Rozurial--the Prophecy is my baby (and I use an Initiate in my off-hand; weird). Loving the Reaper, though. What a great surprise!

Congrats on the saber, the CR is a fantastic hilt, I really like mine in DVA! 

Correct.
It's from a shop that has custom saber parts. The sound holes weren't quite loud enough so I drilled them out a size or two. Almost as loud as the arbiter now. I'm glad the different companies use the same size and threading, allowing for even more customization.

I know this raffle literally just ended, but does anyone have a ballpark estimate of when the Summer Raffle will start? I'm supposed to go visit my brother who lives out of state, and I wanted to take him and his wife a saber as a house warming gift (it's our first time visiting his new home), and I was gonna try to enter the raffle as well.

Well - it looks like the first Summer Raffle winners from last year were announced on July 31st & in 2013 the Summer Raffle ended on 7/16 - so I guess maybe early to mid-July if they stick with about the same time-table.

I know I am a bit tardy, but here are pictures of my Manticore, R+B 2 Channel Emerald Driver, 32" blade, Obsidian Sound which was my raffle entry.  I can't tell you all enough how much of a awesome saber this is.

The Dark Sentinel LE was my raffle prize.  This saber is a sleeper.  Its a lot better looking and extremely well balanced.

I'll talk about more in my review, once I do a bit more photo editing.

I have to agree, the Dark Sentinel is an amazing hilt!  I'm very impressed with it!

My raffle entry, a Dark Prophecy V3 in Sentinel Yellow.

I'll post more pics in the winners thread in the gallery. ;D

I CAN NOT say this enough:

Ooh, those are gorgeous! Be sure to get lots of use out of those! Duel ALL your friends!

Allright alllright I am late to the party for multiple reasons but here are my sabers from the Spring raffle.

First of all is my entry, a Fiery Orange Scorpion with sound, with Red Flash on Clash, midgrade blade.

(http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z347/wulfen2/Sabers/IMG_0280_zpst2fpbumw.jpg) (http://s1185.photobucket.com/user/wulfen2/media/Sabers/IMG_0280_zpst2fpbumw.jpg.html)

Less impressive in daylight but I still love it.

And my Second prize, a random saber with sound...

An Archon with Guardian Blue blade

(http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z347/wulfen2/Sabers/IMG_0281_zps3m4vhmxs.jpg) (http://s1185.photobucket.com/user/wulfen2/media/Sabers/IMG_0281_zps3m4vhmxs.jpg.html)

Krodah: To quote George Takei, "Ooooh myyyyy." I don't know why I've never really noticed the Fire Orange before, but WOW. That's fantastic.

And the Guardian Blue also looks really sweet.

That scorpion in FO looks pretty good.  Used to have one in PO myself.  Both oranges look good on it.  Congrats on the archon too, you even got a blue av switch to match the blade color!

Being a Padawan with Ultra Sabers, I am learning quickly how awesome and generous they are!  I am very happy to have entered the world of US!

Got my entry Dark Prophecy back.  Had to send it in a couple times but now it's perfect! Looking forward to getting a review of it up soon.  US has some great customer service!

It's like I tell the newbs. You will be hard pressed to find better customer service than you get with US.

There's a bunch of haters on the web, trolling about how US is a bunch of crooks, or they make overpriced junk. I have yet to hear them substantiate any of this. I've been collecting for under a year. In that time I have purchased 22 sabers. Only 1 has not passed through my hands for inspection (one Reaper, that was gifted to a special someone), but from what I heard, she had absolutely no problems with it. I have never had any complaints with the products I received, and I can be a picky SOB.

So yeah, US is a pretty good bunch of guys/gals.

I whole heartedly agree with the praise for Ultra Sabers.  Much like you Logos, I have been buying Ultra Sabers for less than a year since last November, and I've bought 10 and won four in raffles in that time.
