One thing I love about the Manticore is that while being a highly customized and stylish saber, its very alignment-neutral, so its suited equally to light or dark side. I can see this eventually being my RGB saber of choice.

I was thinkung exactly the same! I ordered it yesterday with a VA led and silver foc. I have also the bellicose in BR with orange foc. I'm happy got the bellicose with quick disconnect option beacause i will be able to easly change the color. I will do a review when it arrives and also swap the leds ti show up the colors. |

First I liked it. Then I was not so sure... I think it was the emitter. And now I love it. I guess it was like one of those new songs you hear. Then hear again. And suddenly you need to buy the album. Yep, I'll be picking up the Manticore in SY for X-mas... as long as I can prove to my wife I got it on sale (maybe x-mas sale?).  |

 Give light side or dark side points depending on the reason you're giving them. I'd like to see which side I end up on... I like making up nicknames for people.  Aeon V3 LE w/ Sound: SRD Libby, no sound: GB Reaper w/ Sound, FoC: PO w/ FO |

You should do it, Midge! Don't forget the charging port and quick-disconnect. (Never count on me to discourage irresponsible awesomeness.) |

As much as I tried to resist buying one of these, I was ultimately unsuccessful.
Finally broke down and ordered one (BR with Orange FOC, recharge port.. the works).
D'oh!

Also it would be nice to start an all-silver "Maul Edition" of this saber.

The saber is very nice, and among my favorites. But, that emitter is a work of art, and just to put my money where my mouth is on that point, I bought one! It looks great on my Archon V2 hilt!

The Manticore's been in my sights for a while. Don't know how I missed this thread in my few months aboard, but I just may have to buy two Manti's! Best looking staff...period...full stop.  One with Flush Coupler and one with the Standard v3 coupler. ...  ... |

I plan on buying a second Manticore sooner or later and had been looking for a picture of it as a staff. I totally overlooked this somehow. It is as cool as I imagined. Mine will have the flush vented coupler in silver and blades will probable be my current BR and VA.

that manticore is a sexy beast. It took me a while to appreciate it visually, much like bleu cheese... Now... delicious.
