It sure is a thing of beauty, that Consular. The Rapine cake, however.... *shudders*

OK OK OK . . . that one's gone! Now, back to the Consular . . . Oh, SFD - one thing you might want to consider for a future order (especially if you get a V-series which makes it an easy add-on since you can pick it) is the Renegade pommel as a change-up. It looks great on the Consular. I actually use it more than the Consular pommel on mine. Gives it a pretty cool, muscular feel. I think you'll like it.

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.

While I appreciate the advice, (always) this saber is staying looking as close to Qui-Gon Jinn's as I can get it. After all, that was the point of giving it a green LED. I have other colors on hand.

"OK OK OK"
Am I the only person who reads that in Lando's voice each time I see it? Renegade pommel
This ^^. Just like each and every person on the planet should own a Prophecy, so should they have that pommel...

Oh, yeah, Small. I always forget there are 2 - I'm a bit fixated on that one.

That's the one I lean towards myself. Haven't seen it in person yet, but it is more appealing than the flared one certainly.

To me, there's nothing appealing about the Renegade, except the main body section. I'd love it if they sold that part separate. But, that's why US has such a huge selection, to appeal to different tastes. One disadvantage to running desktop Linux based computers: I can't use the Obsidian Launcher and, thus, can't set the sensitivity on my board. The swing and especially clash sensitivity is a bit too high for my taste. I was doing some backwards spins, nothing fancy, with the Consular and the clash kept activating.

I love the parts of the Renegade, which is why I will buy an empty. Make it a regular saber and make good use of other bits

Looking good SFD . . . +1 A LOT of people would like a red anodised av switch on their Consular, it would be great if US offered that as an option . . .
