Title: My Winter Raffle Saber: Just received my first Ultra Saber!!!
Post by: sllikskills on January 05, 2017, 06:16:30 PM
The day has come!

The day I became an uncle will be forever remembered as the same day I got my first Ultra Saber :D

No seriously... my brother is at the hospital right now and I was frankly more excited about seeing the Fed Ex girl today hahaha

The packaging was great. Everything is wrapped up in bubbles, and you will notice that they used extra bubbly bubbles for the blades which is a plus. Everything arrived in great condition. Trying to unscrew the hilt, I accidentally turned on the saber and the noise was so loud it shocked me for a second lol

Im so glad I decided to grab the quick coupler system. Its so cool when you're swinging it around because the weight is amazing, and in the middle of a swing, you can detach the pike extension from the saber, and use it as a club/dagger style. You can put it back together just as fast, so really gives you a lot of combat style options if you are sparring with it,

I got this saber with a Red Flash on Clash, designed in my mind to be a weapon for either a grey Jedi, or an imposter Jedi (almost like Senator Palpatine).

I got the idea from Ahsoka Tano's white saber, which was created by purifying a crystal originally from a red Sith saber. Well.... MY PROPHECY V3 is a Sith Kyba Crystal purified as well, but only enough so that it can leave a faint dash of red on each clash - perfect for an undercover Sith  ;D

Very excited to receive my other two sabers currently in transit.

Here are some pictures! Enjoy

That is sweet. I like what you did with the coupler and Yari.

Also, congratulations on being an uncle.

Looks good! Your description of use and that yari just scream for a spiky pommel on there ;)
Something like the Archon classic or Malice square perhaps?

Thanks for all the props guys.

That table was the last project I completed :)

Corwyn VonBeck - that is an amazing idea. Thanks! Since it's my first purchase, I didn't know that the extension was threaded on both ends. That definitely opens up the world quite a bit.

You made that table?  Wow, no wonder it looks so unique.  Great design and awesome job on that.

Congrats!

Yours is the first build I've seen with a Silver blade AND FoC of any kind. Love the idea and back story to the red FoC it just adds extra life to that lightsaber.

The red AV almost acts like a small tell that there was once a pure red crystal powering this weapon.

You may not have known this but the pommel on your Prophecy is newer and much nicer than the ones US used to have (IMO anyway) so nice score there.

hazard502,

I had the same idea when I decided to go with the red illuminated switch!

I also had no idea about the pommels - I thought there was something different about this one than ones I have seen online in pictures.

A really cool thing about having a red FoC on a silver/white blade is that if you throw in a green disc, you wouldn't believe what the FoC color turns out to be... An amberish white!!!!

I don't have too much knowledge on color mixtures of light compared to say, color mixtures of paint - where a red + green will surely get you some sort of brown.

I was pleased to say the least, to know that I can pop a green disc and this saber is completely a light side saber, but if I remove the disc, it's back to Sith mode

Beautiful saber! I too like the little backstory you've given this lightsaber hehe. I like hearing a bit more on an owner's lightsaber :) I'm curious to see what the other two are! Also good luck with your raffle entries!
