Just because Hisher and I got our sabers in and reviewed it does not mean you can't. Everyone experience's is different and each has there own opinions. Like some might say the guardian relates more closely to the Bane saber in terms of its size and proportions then consular. Some might And some might think saber is actually not a heavy saber, etc etc. My point is everyone has a different opinions and views points. And I feel u should still do a review when u get ur saber. =D |

I would like to see alot more reviews and pics of the Guardian. It is probably the most ornate and complex saber we have ever built, and pricing it so low while still having it made in the USA required an enormous commitment of resources. So naturally, we are proud of the Guardian and want to know how yall like it. I'm glad you find the size of the hilt pleasing. As you're no doubt aware, we do not make movie replicas, nor do we endeavor to. We make tough, functional props and we put function above form while trying to make as stylized a hilt as possible. Part of that function is MHS compatibility, which largely dictates hilt sizing. A typical MHS hilt is 1.4 inches in diameter, add a shroud and you have the predetermined diameter. Personally, I think the Guardian matches up perfectly with the Consular. It's like they are made to go together. |

WOW! The Guardian is simply awesome! It's always been my favorite hilt since TPM was released. So elegant.
It's definitely going to be my first saber purchase... which I'm pining for already! Though I agree it's so nice and looks so well finished I may have to get something else to duel with and keep the Guardian for eye candy! Nice photos.

The Guardian is my next saber - I love US for their functionality and durability, but I like them as show-pieces as well, so the more complex and ornate the better. Keep'em comin Ultra! |

Agreed about the Guardian. It's a truly awesome hilt, and I hope to own one in the future.
In fact, I might have to secure myself a Guardian AND a Consular... eventually lol.

Great pics and review. I have seen the video on the main page, but could someone please post a pic of someone actually holding one up in front of them?

I love the Guardian, but I HATE that pommel.
I'm with you on that - I'm gonna throw the Archon pommel on it when I order mine (one day). |

Great review!
Can you post a picture of your Archon lit up? It looks like you have a different neck on it, where did you get it? Looks cool!
Thanks!
