Thanks!  I'm super happy with how the Consular pommels look on the Dark Sentinels.  Perfect!

I'll have much, much better pictures of it in my review.

That's been my hesitation with the Dark Sentinel since it's release . . . couldn't figure out a good pommel match for it.  Happy to say I got it "right", taking a flyer with the Consular.

Now my 2nd place prize saber.... a Dark Initiate LE v4 with sound..... wow, I love it  
BR ; AS FoC ; v3 sound ; black / red illuminated av switch ; 36" UEMG blade ; No windows ; standard vented pommel ; black covertec wheel on RHS.... awesome.... right now, can't wipe the smile off my face  

I didn't have this hilt, and this is my first v4 with no windows, and I really like it, strange because I thought I wouldn't, lol.... I've taken this pic with a MG blade tho....



I am VERY happy right now.......

Another nice score.   Awesome!

This is awesome. Recently came across the ultrasaber site, and spent a few weeks reviewing all the sabers and options that the site has to offer. Possibilities are endless, Thanks to everyone that have posted reviews , they were great and made me feel confident to place an order for my First saber, a Graflex CE in AB. When I saw this saber I knew I had to have it.  A few days after placing my order I received an email from ultrasaber informing me that I had won a fourth place prize in the summer raffle, I was floored I couldn't believe I had won , (I never win anything). Needless to say I was now even more eager for the arrival of my sabers, to see what I won.

When my sabers arrived the Graflex was truly a work of art, it was everything I hoped for and more. My raffle prize saber turned out to be an Aeon LE v3 in CG, I was pretty pleased with my prize , it too looks great, sure to have a lot of fun duels with them. Thanks Ultrasabers, I am already thinking what my next saber will be to continue with my new collection.

I would like to post pics of my new sabers, if anyone can help me out on the easiest way to post a pic on the forum, I am new to these forums, haven't been able to figure it out,  much to learn I do.

Thanks again Ultrasabers .

I've got some different pommels to swap over, including a Scorpion pommel, so my lucky prize might look very similar to Lord C's prize....

All I'm gonna say is....... I am VERY happy right now....... Cheers  

Yay Team 2nd Place Dark Initiates!

I really love mine!!!

The black finish AV switch looks meant for the Consular - very nice choice Caylem, I can't wait to get mine!

Thank you Ultrasabers for these beautiful black switches!

Wooooooooooo Hooooooooooo

Major score on both lightsabers JediXIX!  Congrats on your prize, plus your Dark Sentinel looks AMAZING!

[JediXIX]

thanks Inzane    thanks Hazard  

I tried the Scorpion pommel on my prize, and it's excellent, especially with a 32" MG blade, great balance....
Yay Team 2nd Place Dark Initiates! 


also experimented with another video converted into an animated gif, BR with AS FoC...

Got my newest sabers on Monday.  I can't help but spending a few days swinging and enjoying them before taking any pictures.  

Here is my entry:
Menace staff - 4 Channels Emerald driver, w/ Obsidian v4 board, FOC, 32" blade



With the light weight and length (both hilt + blade), it is PERFECT for holding and spinning, considering my size.




Now to the equally exciting part ... I didn't know what to expect for my first prize saber.  But when I first unbox it, I was amazed by the LONG and BIG hilt.  It's a Scorpion, in 2 Channels Emerald driver w/ Obsidian v3 board!!



The first thing I noticed was the AV switch not lining up with the "circle" of the outer case, and the hilt was not as shiny as the one I had.  I wonder if these can be fixed on my own.

But looking at this beast in red, with the humming sound, I'm speechless!  


And in the end, I now have two Sith saber staffs!!  THANK YOU Ultrasabers!!!

Hi tycchan1.  Great staff photos.  You have an awesome saber collection.  ds point. 

[Caylem]

Grats with those nice sabers!

With the actual Dotd, i'm thinking about ordering 2 menaces SE, but not emerald with sound in BR with F0C AS, but even with the 10% off, its pretty expensive, and if i get a premium saber, i would want to upgrade it with sound, so it would cost me a lot... with the CAD, it would be almost 1K$...

Do what I did on my Manticore staff, just get one at a time.  You don't get the instant gratification, but your bank account takes a much smaller hit.

LOL, thanks Dauntless Seven, I had to literally put my phone on my basement ceiling to take the staff pictures.

Totally undertand Caylem, especially the CDN currency is not cooperating!  I waited a whole year for this puchase.  But now I've made a purchase, I probably need more therapy to slow down this addiction again.
