Hey buddy gotta watch it buddy can't say other company's names on the forum. We just say " the other guys". Out of respect for US and all they do for us.  Yeah. This.  But also, a magnetic coupler might make it (a staff) unstable if its too weak, or hard to get off if too strong. I prefer the Screw in ones that Ultrasabers provide. Seems better to me. |

Check out the videos of the Terra Prime Lightsaber Academy. They did one with a quick disconnect coupler and I think they posted in the comments section how it was done. Really cool to watch.

So I am late to the game and have neither the time or patience to read through 169 pages of suggestions so forgive if these have been suggested, but I would really love to see hilt options for engraving runes/alien script or scrollwork (a la old republic/sith style sabers) and/or leather wrapped grips. I realize this could bump pricing but if it's an option I would for sure be interested for my second, third, fourth etc (see where I'm going here)

Sorry guys...still a nube! "The other guys," gotcha. Won't make the same mistake again. BTW, is it ok to use the other guys in a video review and comparison? I thought I'd seen it done. I don't want to break ettiquette!

If its not posted to Saberforum... Yeah. But if you use it in one for Saberforum, just be on the safe side of caution. Don't go in detail with it, No names. You get the idea. This is after all an Ultrasabers forum... So its only polite. And don't worry about it. We were all Newbs once.  Just keep it in mind. |

You know, I must confess that I'm not a fan of the Dark Shock emitter at all. Which is weird because I really like the Shock and Shock LE emitters a lot! I think my dislike of the DS's emitter is how the color scheme pattern is set up, which is why i would have to switch it out with a Consular emitter.
I would like to see the Dark Shocks's emitter have an inverse of how the Shock LE emitter is. Black anodizing on the top and bottom, and non-coating silver on the inner grooves before the flange. This would really help sell me on the Dark Shock!
Or maybe have this as an option in the "Build your own" section under the emitters section, kind of like how we have a Dark War Glaive pommel and DWG pommel #2. Have a Dark Shock emitter #2 with an inverse pattern of the Shock LE pattern, only black.

A more "metallic" looking covertech wheel to match the Al of the hilts. Not making the CTW out of metal, per se, but like a metallic paint job or something...
The more I think about it, it'd be easy to just do yourself with how easy the knob comes off...

I'm having a hard time deciphering this. The covertech wheels are made from aluminum, so they already match the regular aluminum hilts. O.o |

When I have the coin I'm looking to get a staff, so my wish is new staff design's and someone posted earlier engravings on the hilt's.

Maybe having a weekly "custom saber " put up with random claws/ emitter / pommels etc. whatever the sick and twisted minds of US can come up with. There have been some really cool set ups coming up lately and I think offering them in a "saber of the week" custom for a premium price may go well. Or maybe a specific premium one with random parts as the deal of the day special during the duration of a raffle or promotion. Could call the "Winter Great Saber" or the Spring Saber Lance" etc or just do them on deal of the day but with a separate section for "The Force Creations" ... All sorts of combinations and it may give The US crew for some design inspiration and sales potential when a specific "look" sales out.

Very intriguing. I like this idea. Could be cool to see say a monarch and yari together, or a archon with a shock emitter and raven pommel, or... Well you get the idea. I think this might work |
