Here's a link to my photo review and video demo of the Flash On Clash here in the forums. http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=9890.0Cheers! E

Cute Kitty
Great review. That Bellicose looks great. I like the buttons in gold and the bright green to match. I think Ill get a bronze button with mine in guardian blue, but the green matches the gold.
What settings did you use in the obsidian?
The Archon looks good on that saber.
Through review. That is weird that it needs two retention wrenches. But Tiz the way it has its blade holder.
I am surprised you broke a Heavy Grade. That seems hard.
Your kid is cute too. I wish my parents would have got me something this cool.

The sound font I used was Episode IV with Starkiller's power down sound. As for my detection settings, I've gone with the following for mine: That is for my Bellicose with a 35" ultraedge heavy grade blade. At these settings, only a broom handle or UltraSaber is going to really set off the Flash on Clash. It sometimes happens when my 4 year old swings at me with his toy saber, and I think, how cute, my son activated the FoC. Then we all laugh and have one of those Hanna Barbera moments... yeah, I can't wait until I get my kid his Prophecy...

Nice choice of saber for your kid's first real saber. =] I also have a Bellicose. Seems to be gaining popularity again. Though I think my Aeon V3 will be my most favorite when the saber arrives hopefully this weekend.

Very nice review, really informative and it's great that you went over all the "bells and whistles", showing off what it can do. Also, the bit with your kid just made it all the more awsome!
Also loved the cat! "Miauw" "I'm doing a review" "well screw you then silly human!" ^^
Throwing a point your way.

Thanks! My cat tells me that on a daily basis, and saunters away laughing cause she *thinks* I didn't hear her. Her punishment? A swift trip on my lap for massive hugs.

I love the Aeon! I hope you post pictures!

Eerockk, Hey, that review was excellent and the choices you made on your Bellicose is the same as mine (if i were to buy one in the near future), I do love the slanted emmitters, they just make a saber look so cool from an angle. -AuzureWolf

Hey Eerockk,
Yes, I did watch the ENTIRE video. Great review dude. I personally think that the Archon pommel looks like it belongs on the Bellicose. Great choice there.
Glad you are enjoying your time here on the forums!

Very nice and thorough review! The more info the better.
Now you have me reconsidering my next Ultrasaber since I was considering either the Consular (CG) or the Manticore (BR).....

Thanks everyone! According to Canada Post, I have another saber review coming this evening at the earliest! Over two months of owning the Bellicose has not changed my opinion of it. It's my main and only saber and I still can't get enough of it, especially since taking some lessons from TPLA. I've dropped this thing, I've snapped (and repaired) the tip of the UEHG blade off, and this thing just keeps begging for more. Two months after the fact, I'm still in love!
