I tried dropping a line to the info email, but I'm guessing the shop is slammed.  So I'll post my question to the GP.

Can you get the quick disconnect installed on the flamberge?  I didn't see an option on it's order page.  Thanks all.

If there's no option for QD's, then they're most likely not available for the Flamberge.

That is correct. If the option is not available in the customization pulldowns, then it not available for that saber.

Although I don't have a cross-guard saber yet, I thought those of you who do might appreciate the sheer awesomeness of this vid:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxz20N2O09M" target="_blank" class="aeva_link bbc_link new_win">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxz20N2O09M</a>

BTW, He also mentioned in a reply: "It flickers because I bought the Emerald LED driver with my Ultra Saber Flamberge. It allows you to pulse the light. It is not my camera, its the led light pulsing."

I apologize if this has already been posted here, but I got a little excited...

I think it would look cool to stick blade plugs in the sides and just have the red reflective glow coming out.

Although I like the appearance of the Flamberge/Renegade I'm inclined to think that I'd go for this if I bought one. I quite like swords with shortish crossguards, and feel like that'd really look cool.

Does anyone have a photo of a Flamberge with plugs in to show how deep they sit/show far they stick out? The other option would be to use something like the Manticore emitters on the sides...

I have a horrible feeling that my brain is going to decide I need a Flamberge... Roll Eyes

Any particular reason why one wouldn't just cut some "grab bag" blades as short as desired w/a pipe cutter?

Maybe I'm naive, but what's the point of getting a "cross"-guard saber for the purpose of eliminating the "cross" blades to use blade plugs instead?  Huh

Kinda like buying a short-sleeve shirt to cut the sleeves off instead of buying a sleeveless shirt, yes?  Grin

There's a specific look I'd be going for that'd suit the hilt in general, but not the wide crossguard blades.

You're right that I could cut down blades, but I already have many, many blade plugs. If they fit the crossguard holes, great. If not, I'd need to consider other options - including cutting down blades.

This is what I'd do as well; use the width of the emitter itself as the guard and treat the Flamberge as a broad sword lightsaber. The cross guard blades would get old for me quickly, but I like the hilt non the less.

Give into your temptation, it is your destiny.

The only way to get rid of temptation is to yield to it. 

I like mine but it's too big for me to use effectively.

Mine currently has plugs in.  I had to cut them to right about 3/4" to get them to sit flush with the emitter ring.

Pics tomorrow.

I wonder which one will suit the need to recreate the green bladed crossguard saber seen in the new Rebels Season 2.5 trailer.

Has anyone tried using the side emitters as emitters for other MHS hilts?
