Nope, no claw. I'm not a claw type person. Will it further outrage you to learn that the first thing I'm going to do is change out the pommel and cannibalize the original Scorpion pommel for parts?  If I add a pulse, it'll probably be for a blade flicker effect...not to mention that the saber will also spend a fair amount of time being NOT red. Oh, and I got shipping notification when I woke up this morning. Meh. My Mantis arrived in BH, and has spent most of its life in AB. Do you have any ideas about what you're going to do for a pommel? I'm pushing round Malice pommels lately. I don't see them enough, and they look cool. I'm thinking that that pommel will line up nicely with the neck of the Scorp pommel. Then you'd have a very unique look. |

I know exactly what I'm planning on using as a pommel. Pics in a few days, if it all works out. |

 THAT IS SO BAD ASS!! You guys at Ultrasabers never seize to amaze me. The new Scorpion with dual sets of windows in the emitter and below the emitter is genius. Looks amazing! I am a Ultrasabers fan for life!!

I just got my new Scorpion Wednesday. It is amazing.
I ordered it on Friday the 22nd and asked if it was possible to get ASAP. And did they ever. It was shipped out on Monday. By no fault of US it didn't get here until Wednesday. The "Fastest ship in the shipping business" FedEx for some reason derped. It made it to Atlanta at 4am. There is a direct FedEx flight to Buffalo NY. Nope. They sent it to Cleveland! So called them up and had some very unkind things to say.
Short story they finally got it to me.
And let me tell you it is awesome! I am a big guy so its weight is not a problem. I got it with the claw. I got a bit of light dueling with it on Thursday. The power you generate for a parry due to its weight if formidable.

So tell me your take on its balance. Personally, I think it's superb. |

Ho ho ho, now I haz two Scorpions, one black and one red.   Huge thanks to Ultrasabers and their generosity with the raffles for the Crimson Scorpion. The black one is GRBA Emerald, and the red is RGBW Emerald. |

Just noticed your signature list. Are you ripping my style by naming a secret project?

Nope. I had Project: Undercover (which is a development of "pint-sized powerhouse", and is in the thread by that name) in mind for quite some time before you first mentioned Project: BOOYA, and have had Projects: Havoc and Chimera in mind for even longer. Call it great minds thinking alike. Oh, I did notice someone else putting a "Project: somethingorother" in their sig line the other day, though. I think it's catching on. |

+1 great minds and trend setting. I, for one, can't wait to see what BOOYA is. I similarly can't wait for my backorder delayed components to get here for Havoc and Chimera. At least I can get everything bar installing the emitters done on Havoc without the missing components. Chimera is totally on hold until I get that order in. Still need to buy a breadboard, soon, and I almost forgot that I'm going to need to order blades. |

Unfortunately, I don't trust people with knowledge. Power is dangerous. But you have brought a fun thread idea to mind... |
