Guys and gals, we're EXTREMELY excited to finally add this saber to the Ultrasabers family. The Empress has arrived.We’ve been hard at work with this one, and we’re are beyond thrilled to finally be able to bring it to you guys. Designed from the ground up with the next generation of Masters and Padawans in mind, The Empress has been gilded with some of the most unique features to ever grace the lineup! The first thing you’ll notice about the Empress is the fearsome halo of eight claws that wreathe its blade socket, each one flowing down into the main hilt with a corresponding extension, reinforcing the structure of the saber. All of this shrouds the Empress’s 360° windowed emitter that rings the saber, glowing brightly beneath each claw. The body of the Empress is available with OR without the decorative circuit board etchings. The etchings run completely around the hilt in an asymmetrical pattern, but neatly come together in an orderly shape to really highlight the AV switch that comes standard on each Empress. The body measures at a 1.5″ width, and functions as a comfortable choke-point of the saber, giving you a perfect grip for spins and fast paced combat. The lower portion of the hilt is designed to mirror the claw extension of the proceeding emitter, and really sets off the saber’s look. We’ve designed the pommel of the Empress to give the saber a perfect balance; both in looks and in weight, but didn’t stop there! The Empress’ pommel is built to amplify the sounds on your Obsidian Soundboards, should you elect to equip one to your saber (which we obviously recommend). The Empress is available in our four standard colors: The Empress itself will be in our classic, sinister black, our Azure Empress will come anodized in our bold blue, the Crimson Empress will come anodized in our menacing red, and the Empress LE will be anodized in a brilliant gold for a truly regal look. The Empress has arrived- Get yours here!

I love my Empress. Right now, it is my favorite hilt. My wife has the Azure and loves it too, though she wants a black so I do to it what I did to mine.

It's not listed as an option, but I don't see how they would fit. The bottom of the LED module comes very close switch. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if it was touching it. The LED module has to go that far down to clear the emitter windows and for the retention screw to hold the blade. You might be able to install them yourself, but it would be a very tight fit.

Damn. So it's one of those. I was really hoping to avoid Emerald or wedding to a single color.

Here is a non-MLS LED placed outside the hilt to show how far down it would go.

I'm thinking about getting another Empress (red or yellow) so I can swap parts with my black one. Maybe change the pommels, pointy part (very top piece) and the circle portion just above the av switch. Just a thought as I really like the look of the saber as is.
