Dark (Knight) Side Points.


« on: February 07, 2017, 08:30:54 PM »

Since my first video review/showing off did so poorly and got no responses, I have decided to stick with written reviews.

Anyway, today I received my two newest lighsabers, both stunts:

Renegade LE in Blazing Red with a 36 inch heavy grade blade, along with 2 6-inch blades to complete the crossguard.
Some personal specs:
- Went with regular setup, probably sent it back soon to upgrade to Li-Ion setup.
- I opted for the 6 inches side blades and a silver covertec knob near the pommel.
- Silver non-illuminated AV switch

Some other specs that some might find useful:
- On my setup, for tip to tip the side blade length is about 17 inches long.
- On my setup, the tip of the 36 inch blade to bottom of the pommel is about 50 to 51 inches tall.

My other new lightsaber is my 5th Dark Prophecy V3, in TRI-Blazing Red with a 32 inch heavy grade blade. (The blade is for another saber I want to try something out on.)
Personal specs:
- Went with regular setup, probably sent it back soon to upgrade to Li-Ion setup.
- Black non-illuminated AV switch


I love these lightsabers. The Renegade LE is a beast. Maybe because I went with a stunt setup but I don't find it as heavy as previously seen in other reviews. The TRI-BR is definitely brighter but I feel it gives off a lighter red color than a standard BR unit would, maybe it is just me, maybe it is the blade choice I went with. Who knows?  I would like to point out the care Ultrasabers put into shipping these to me. I never have ran into that much bubble wrap and plastic wrap in my life. Thanks and shout out to them! *thumbs up*

Also, got blade plugs but them all and when I put the standard blade plugs in the Renegade LE, I realized this lightsaber would need some custom blade plugs because it demanded them.

Well, everyone, that's all I have to say, I need to go out into my backyard and swing these things around and get the feel for them.

I want both of these!  I think the Renegades the one crossguard saber on the market I don't own at this point 😆. The heavy blades were a good call on it, I think the US crossguard sabers feel much better with them.  What are you trying out the other blade on?

Superb! That Renegade LE has a "growl" about it - really diggin it.  Nice choice! So much goin' on with that saber!  Grin

The Prophecy needs no introduction - it is always cool and the love the black covertec wheel with the red blade.  As Sithy as you can get.

Nice pair of sabers to add to your collection - huge congrats to you, bro. So much fun!   Cheesy

The red on the Renegade looks so sinister. I can't imagine any other color on that hilt. It's perfect!

Wow, those are some seriously beautiful sabers.  Shocked Shocked

Every time I see the Prophecy or Dark Prophecy I instantly feel the need for more sabers. I'm not that interested in the Renegade anymore, due to its size, but it is still and extremely beautiful saber. Congratz.

Fantastic photos!  It's no secret I love black hilts and every blade color just excels with them and it's the same with the BR blades - gorgeous lightsabers.

I find that my Tri-CG is a lighter shade than the standard CG LED's I have - but still full and bright - much like the Tri-BR you have.  Congrats on these!  Points for the review Smiley

Your sabers look great BatMike90. The Renegade LE is an awesome looking saber. Point for the share.
