I do love that they're adding more customized anodizing color choices. The emitter and covertech wheel being the same color on the Savior and the anodized accent colors on the Butcher is a genius move by US! Would love more sabers with these types of options in the future, please!
I'll second that. Options beyond the basic silver and black really let you customize your saber. |

It's probably been suggested and it might be possible with the right set up, but a yellow(and or gold) color LED, also Black

Yellow actually is a color (look for a forum colors post), but for black, you really can't use black light because it comes off as more of a dim purple. If you want black its better to find some website that sells black blades. (I can't suggest any because i really don't know any by name but I have seen them) |

Since we don't want it to get repetitive since Logos seems to be the only one to ever actually say it (then everyone agrees with him   ), I'd love to see more US original designs. I love the character inspired hilts, but I also really really like the original designs (in fact I don't [yet] own any character inspired hilts. All mine are Apprentice, Initiate, or Dominix). |

You have great taste there, Taegin and I agree with you. Hopefully, they will give us V5 versions of existing hilts that we already love and add in new models. |

What the heck is the "BOOYA! mod"?
The underlying drive to get Project:BOOYA! developed was to get an economic quick color change. Effectively it's and RGB setup without the G. What I would like to see them do is of fer simple splits of mixed colors. VA -> BR + GB, SY -> BR + CG, AB -> CG + GB...and any other 2 LED mixes. The sad part was that the mod (at this point) would be hilt limited to certain models. I originally wanted to use Apprentices, but was advised to use Sentinels for more space for wires. I think it would be very popular. Ho i forget : I would really love that US make a Yoda like saber, and of course small hilt ! Be sure I would buy it ! edit : found the picture in the internet, not mine Envoyé de mon ASUS_X00ID en utilisant Tapatalk Too short. But then, the Fulcrum is nowhere near to proper scale of Ahsoka's primary. I got to hold one Saturday. It is STUPID huge. Personally I would love US to work a longer version of Yoda's saber. I always felt that the hilt depicted in the movies was ridiculously undersized, even for Yoda. |

Well not really too short, medieval one-hand sword have all a small hilt and between guard and pommel even me can only put 1 hand maybe a hilt as small as yoda's is difficult to build and put stuff in but I think it can be a good idea one-hand style offer great options of fighting and spinning . I'll try to make one by myself but quiet hard for me Envoyé de mon ASUS_X00ID en utilisant Tapatalk |

Been barkin' up that tree for a couple of years. Well not really too short, medieval one-hand sword have all a small hilt and between guard and pommel even me can only put 1 hand maybe a hilt as small as yoda's is difficult to build and put stuff in but I think it can be a good idea one-hand style offer great options of fighting and spinning . I'll try to make one by myself but quiet hard for me In order to be believable, I think there should have been a minimum size for certain components, like power cells. But even compared to Yoda's proportions the hilt just looked too small. |

Honestly, I can't see this happening, now that they have the Diamond board, and the quick changes can be performed on the fly. Points for a good idea though. |

yes I think so, but 8" is enough, the initiate v2 is long enough to get all the components I think (I saw videos of people who upgrade a v2 with sound so I think it's possible). If I have money enough, I'll buy components for stunt and I'll make a Yoda like hilt, only if US don't make it before (don't think so anyway  ) Envoyé de mon ASUS_X00ID en utilisant Tapatalk |

If you haven't dealt with a Diamond board yet, count your blessings. They are exceptionally temperamental and very expensive. So would you rather pay say $75 for a partial RGB setup, or $200 something for Diamond? |

If my math is right, adding a Diamond board to a stunt saber is approximately $290.00. If you ask me, that is a little overpriced. Adding an Emerald board with sound to a stunt saber is approximately $250.00. Again this seems overpriced to me. Adding an Emerald board to a stunt saber is approximately $170.00. Still a little much, but if this one included light sound, it may actually be worth it. As for the Diamond Board, well, it would be my choice of electronics if it weren't so darned expensive. Plus I haven't seen any videos online that comment on any problems with the board. As for partial RGB, I still think this will never happen. US has been moving away from the RGB sabers as of late, and honestly I don't think they will ever go back, especially when they have Emerald and Diamond boards. |
