Actually, they do offer custom blade lengths, but they upcharge for the added labor.
yeah im suggesting that 28 is added to the standard options because it's so much more expensive to get the custom ones. also it would be nicer to have a longer "standard" option for initiates similar to how standard sabers get 32 and 36 as standard choices. I've seen a few people here that were also wondering why 28 isn't an option yet. It would also work great because 28 inch blades on the saber staff hilts puts most of them at around 72 inches which is perfect for anyone who's between 5'6 and 6'0 (average US height basically). |

Maybe. I don't hear too many requesting 28s. |

We need another original design with horizontal grooves. Watched a customize video and it gave me some ideas for cool grips  I like the Prophecy but I'd want to leave that saber as is |

US never claimed to make screen accurate replicas. They deal in COMBAT sabers, so the designs first and foremost have to be able to withstand blows. It has been my experience that they also try to do it for less than everybody else. So to keep costs down they sacrifice things like scale and visual accuracy. Other times I feel that this adds to certain hilts. Case in point: the Archon. It's loosely based on Luke's, but it is bigger, and has no uncomfortable activation box, no D-ring, and no spindly thin neck. All of these differences IMO improve this model. The Archon is one of my all-time favorites from US.
Personally, I'm perfectly fine with hilts that are "inspired by" the canon models. The Archon is a good example, the Fallen is another. That beauty may not be 100% like the one in the game, but the Ultrasabers version is GORGEOUS. That's the one I ordered for myself and it can't get here fast enough! |

That's the thing with the Fallen. I was not really moved by the lightsaber in the game, so I tweeked it as soon as I could. But their take on it? Damn. So, regarding my desire for an Obi-Wan ep 1/2 or a Qui-Gon Jinn, those won't be from US. But their take on the Fallen and the Butcher... I might have fallen for them already. Not to mention a cool LE one like an AEON LE V5... yummy. |

I ordered the Aeon LE v5 for my youngest son; he'll be 10 when Christmas comes. I liked the design for him; besides the fact that it's a cool look, I think it's one that he'll be able to use now, and he'll grow into it as well. It seemed pretty streamlined for him. |

V5 staffs would be amazing. I know I can just get 2 with a coupler but having an actual staff option would be great especially with the slight discount the previous versions get along with the included coupler. It would make ordering a whole lot easier.

Star Wars Celebration I ran into a Darth Revan there that had both the Savior and the Butcher. I thought the scale of the Butcher was ridiculously large and uncomfortably heavy. |

As a showpiece, the Butcher looks fantastic. As a combat saber, not so much; that handgrip would be too much for me to handle. The Savior, on the other hand....very nice.... |

aaaawww =( now I'm sad. As a showpiece, the Butcher looks fantastic. As a combat saber, not so much; that handgrip would be too much for me to handle.
The Savior, on the other hand....very nice....
I have to admit it would be more for decoration purposes than fighting. For now. And even then, I'd still have other sabers to battle with. But it is an important feedback nonetheless, thank you! |
