Hey guys, I was lucky enough to get a raffle saber! All sabers are red.

Here's my review of that raffle saber, and the two sabers I ordered (separately).

Image 1: Angle 1


Image 2: Angle 2


Image 3: All on

First saber I got was the Bellicose (with sound (Obsidian V4), Emerald, heavy grade blade, blazing red, 36"). I liked the feeling of it, good quality & nice and heavy feel to it. Balanced well too (it's the top saber).


Took it apart to see what was inside, got it all back together and it still works like a dream. It looks AWESOME at night, even through the heavy grade blade.
In sunlight, you can see the edges of the blade. It looks pretty cool, but it's not the same as the raffle saber which looks great in sunlight too.
It's slightly less bright than the raffle saber, but that's not really an issue.

As for the sound, some of them are not to my liking, but the episode 1/2? and the sith saber (not ancient) sound presets are pretty good for a sith/red lightsaber (completely subjective).
No matter which one you take, sound quality is great. Selecting them is a bit cringeworthy to do, as some presets shout out their name 'movie announcer'-style (luckily not done often).

I've yet to test the Emerald driver's capabilities. Both Emerald sabers have a charging port, which is great! The other one has internal batteries, which you can change/charge by unscrewing the bottom of the hilt.

The other one is the Consular (with sound (Obsidian V4), Emerald, heavy grade blade, blazing red, 32"). Same quality & style as the Bellicose, balancing is still good even with a slightly smaller blade.


The raffle saber is the Dark Liberator v3 (no sound, normal blade, red).


I didn't dare smack this one around, didn't want to break it! Used to heavy grade, so I'll have to be careful!
It looks great in sunlight, as opposed to the heavy grade (where you can easily see the edges).

I smacked around the two heavy grade sabers with my neighbour, they can take a beating.
You can see scratches on the blade, but it's not affected how cool it looks - even if you can see them at night, too.

This has been my triple review! I'm thinking of getting another two sabers, but I'm not yet sure which ones.
Definitely ordering here again! If you guys want more info/more

Cheers,
Saquith/Roeland

Great review, you got some great sabers there. I really like your Bellicose, the metal colored buttons I think I like a lot better than the red one that comes standard. The red button looks a little cheaper to me. The silver and gold buttons look a lot classier IMO.  I wish I could give some advice on a new saber,but I have yet to see one I don't like. High quality problem I know. US is awesome!!!

I love me some Blazing Red sabers. Great review. Great minds think alike,  we have almost the exact same setup for the Bellicose. The Consular looks really good with Blazing Red. Might be on my official wishlist soon.

Dark Side or Light Side points?

Nice review and pics.  Congratulations on the win, a Dark Liberator looks like an awesome prize.  Grin  And, of course, your two order sabers are fantastic.  Love the looks of the Bellicose, and the Consular is just an awesome design.  I like how you had them in blazing red to match the Dark Libby for the photo.  Smiley

You have some great looking sabers there. Triple threat in blazing red. Point.

Great review. The more I see BR sabers, the more I need one (well... maybe I shouldn't say need, but you get the point). Anyways, that is quite the collection you have started there. Three of my current favorite designs.

Either you like Star Wars... Or you're wrong.

Love all three of those, and to see them in a trifecta of BR is a whole different level. Since you have a combination of midgrade and UE blades with that color, which are you liking the best?

I very much like the look of that Dark Liberator. I have the regular one, and it's so comfortable to wield.

Point to you for the excellent share!  Wink

Nice. My Liberator V3 has never broken so you're all good. Its a tough little saber. I never duel hard anyway even with Heavy blades. I'm still weird like that Tongue
