Godzilla got himself a lightsaber now!

I got my saber yesterday. I had a grin on my face all day that wouldn't go away. I hope the pictures came out alright. I'm still new at posting and forums.

Hello - congrats!

But - no, the pics aren't working.   Wink

I checked the code and you are trying to link to Facebook which I'm not sure is possible to do since the address is to a Frame and not an Image.

If you upload your pics to Photobucket and use the "Direct Link" to the image from there in the manner you used the FB link - you should be fine.

Direct Link looks like this:

http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag93/Lord_Canterbury/image.jpg1_zpsfpapeqjd.jpg

It's best to point straight to the image file - like a .jpg - as opposed to a page.

Hope that helps!

Winning? Is that what you think it's about? I'm not trying to win. I'm not doing this because I want to beat someone, or because I hate someone, or because I want to blame someone. It's not because it's fun. God knows it's not because it's easy. It's not even because it works, because it hardly ever does. I do what I do because it's right! Because it's decent! And above all, it's kind! It's just that. Just kind.

I hope these pictures work. But this is my saber.

The saber is heavier than I expected, which is a good thing. I love the sound of the Obsidian V4 and the multiple options. I will have to play with the sound fonts and create my own. I want more sounds as I wave it around. The flash on clash is my wife's favorite part. I have Consular Green with Arctic Blue FOC. Next time I will either go with silver or orange FOC.  I don't think this design is ideal for spinning. The covertech wheel I put on cut my hand on the side and the groves in the neck gave me blisters on the thumb; but, damn it's so much fun to play with.

I really want a stunt saber now for spinning and dueling, if it ever happens. When I get my next one, I may try the grab bag saber idea.

Hey Gojira76, to imbed photos onto your forum posts you just use the IMG link on photobucket Smiley

Dang, your Archon V3 looks AWESOME!  Any trouble removing the whole emitter from the body?

Thank you Hazard502 for the advice. I have not had any trouble temping my emitter. It just took a little grip strength at first. I do like how the neck and emitter are two pieces. Gives me more customizing options.

You have to get green with this one. It's too iconic of a saber not to.

Its Beautiful! 

I got my shipping notice today and my Archon V3 will be here in the next few days. I can't wait!  I decided to get it in Tri-C FO with quick disconnects so I can modify later if I want, but I wanted it to have a slightly darker look to it.  I hope it looks as good IRL as it does in my mind.

I can't wait to see your Archon. I'll bet it will be super bright. I wanted the flash on clash feature which is so cool.

When she arrives, I will be sure to post many pics and I might even do a review.  We'll see
