Thanks, EB. There is a lot of love for the Scorpion around these parts, and I've thought of it countless times and keep putting it off, mostly because I wanted to wait until I could do it right with Emerald, and now with Diamond, even better. I will definitely share lots of pics and video on it. Hopefully I can keep the video to under 10 minutes  Point for your vote, too!  |

I've been thinking of a Diamond Shock myself (not a dark one, but the standard silver), because a Shock plus one of these from TCSS: MHS-ribbed-extension-P245.aspx or this MHS-ribbed-extension-v-grooved-P252.aspx is just...sexy. Like a half Shock / half Arbiter saber o sexiness.
Like so . . . ?  Thanks, EB. There is a lot of love for the Scorpion around these parts, and I've thought of it countless times and keep putting it off . . .
I'd wager the Catalyst and Shock would take better advantage of the Diamond features as far as being better for easy fluid movement - not to say that the Scorpion won't be crazy fun either. But I'll toss in a vote for the Shock or Catalyst |

Like so . . . ? Haz, that's cool. Is that yours? You got your hands on one of the 4 piece Arbiters I love so much. Awesome mix up you got there.

I used to have this Shock LE ... and the v-groove extension is still mine and it's a part from TCSS. I love it but haven't found a permanent home for it since. |

Looks identical to the Arbiters. I've seen that on their site, but didn't realize it looked so close. |

Lookin good there, James. I'm seriously dreaming that, if The Force wills that I win a Grand Prize this raffle, I'd consider a Catalyst to pair with my TCSS/Arbiter neck to give it a similar home as your Dark Catalyst. Think that'd make a pretty combination.

That does look sharp, James. I wish TCSS did anodizing to get a black version of that Arbiter style neck. I'd love to pair one with the Dark Shock. In any case point for the awesome MHS mashup! |

That Catalyst looks sweet! that grenade sections could easily be made for it.
Overlord just doesnt quite flow as well, but is still nice certainly.
Have a few ideas for the TCSS version to give it the LE look...

There's a section to select a vast number of colours and various patterns to apply to any MHS part they sell. JediXIX and I have both gotten parts to match the black anodizing offered on US hilts - there's also red, gold, green etc. |
