I would welcome different options for the activation box, especially something more low profile. I don't think I'll ever buy a saber with the existing design - they look quite large and elevated - and feels like they will be in the way when you want to spin/saber around. Although I must admit I'm quite obsessed with this issue - even the tiny elevation of the AV switch on my Dark Shock irks me.
Also, as discussed before, the ability to buy separate parts of a saber. I really want to have the ribbed neck extension of the Dark Arbiter but don't want to commit to buying a whole saber just for that.
Longer couplers. Maybe something like a Yari that has two male ends & holes for sound (so you don't need to buy separate couplers). On that note, a double female adapter to maximize the true potential of Frankensaber experiments.
Finally, the angled emitter of Graflex/Chosen One as a separate MHS emitter. That would sell like crazy.

How about new blade plugs? ive seen some done by others that really make the saber seem like its actually a functional light saber. I know ultrasabers can do it. they would just need to try.

They already have blade plugs available. Or do you mean a different style?

Yeah? I don't know, man. When I use the stock emitter for my Dark Shock, the AV switch is in the way for me. Only after upgrading to War Glaive I was able to wield it with two hands properly.

different styles and designs. and dare i say crystal plugs? the plain ones they sell do exactly what they are meant to do but i think with the overall craftsman ship of their sabers deserves better than just plain. know what i mean?

Yeah, this would be cool. I could go for new designs/ideas.

I have alluded to this during my videos but I think a great option that needs to be added to the US line up is D-rings and a universal belt clip. One complaint that I hear most often about the Prophecy line up is that the Covertec gets in the way of a two hand grip. D-rings would give more options for placement than a Covetec Knob does and most of the ones I have encountered can be installed with the very same screw used to secure the Covertec. Many of the Pommels allow for great placement of a D-ring and it would not interfere with the speaker in the slightest.
I bought a Universal Belt Clip from a person looking to decrease their personal supplies on another forum. It is made of metal and holds Covertec sabers in place but you don't have to squeeze or depress buttons to get the saber disconnected. At the bottom, it has a lip that holds a D-ring and is quite well spaced to allow for easy removal of the saber but tight enough to prevent it from falling off.
Just some more options that could be offered to customers and DIY'ers for a variety of flavors to go with the sabers.

Color matched AV switches! Such as Nickel and Black to match the hilt anodizing. Along with an AV style switch for stunt sabers! Gladly pay the price.

Could be tricky on the Nickel, but I'm fairly sure I have seen the same style switch in black depending on source.

Nickel switches are already available from...those " other guy's " but I'd prefer to use US parts and not deal with other companies. A pommel or emitter? Sure those are just mhs parts but when it comes to the electronics, I'll just as soon leave it to the professional crew over at US.
