Will there be more hilt styles? Will there be more sabers that are inspired from the SWU. (as you did with bane)? Will you guys have illuminated switches as a option? A big one, will you have ether option of being able to have an affordable slide out crystal chamber for extra $ or one saber that has crystal chamber? Lastly will there be more options for painting of the hilts. Weathered to colored to aged etc?
Thank you

1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Do you have a switch in mind that you'd like us to offer? 4. We're exploring that option 5. We are moving away from painted hilts to focus more on anodized aluminum, but we will be offering different color schemes, of which aged and weathered is a possibility.

Sounds like 2011 is going to be a good year Illuminated switches is a great idea, but i would think of this as more of an individuals customisation. A way of making your UltraSabers saber 'your own'..... Just my opinion of course.

The switches I have in mind are these (colors) (types) I think these switches as a choice will be a good addition to your shop. They make hilts pop out while being simple and sleek. (I will be posting the blue switch on my Aeon when the switch arrives if you are curious to see how it looks with the saber ) Thanks for hearing my advice, means alot to get feedback from the owners. And 2011 will be a good year, looking forward to seeing new saber hilts, hilt schemes(aged and weathered get my vote), crystal chamber possibility would be kick ass. Thanks Ultra

Oh my god , these swithes would be the BEST ! I did some research , turns out that vaders vault uses those kind of switches for their sabers . It truly brings out the sleekness of the hilt ! Plus , it looks more futuristic

I would definitely pay something extra if those switches were offered. Looked into adding one myself, but I have very little knowledge of electronics and even with the tutorials I have a slight fear of screwing something up. I'm also really looking forward to the Crimson Pyrestone color that was mentioned a few times over at the old forums.

Another question about future products...
Are there any plans to have a metal, curve-hilt saber? Ultra Saber offers conversions on the Dooku Master Replica, any Ultra Saber originals in the works?

I too had a quick question, I really like the new Liberators concave mid section, any chance this section could be a bit more concave? I think it would look awesome. Also I agree with the other posters, AV switches would make my wallet bleed lol I would LOVE to see AV switches as an option.

I've heard of these switches described as anti-vandals. Anyone know the dimensions?
Could they be counter sunk so they are flush, or would they need to be in a switchbox?

Depends on the switch, most latching switches (which are the ones that would work without a momentary card or tricky wiring) would require a switch box cuz they are too long. Some momentary ones could fit flush as far as I know, but it would not be ideal with the led setup as it would only turn on the led when pressed (momentary).

Is this a crazy idea? What if you chose a a particular Jedi or Sith's saber to replicate each month? I know you guys do Darth Maul's in a couple of different options, but what if you did say Mace Windu's or Darth Sidius's and others in a sort of rotation? With each new month would be a new replica. Would that be too much of a pain in the butt?

Well, they could be EXACT replicas because of copyright issues, but character inspired sabers (like the bane and prophecy) would be something I would be very interested in.

If possible, on your site with your all your sabers, have a photo of the saber in someone's hand to better show the size of the saber. Most of them already do or have video's attached. Those are great. Just letting you know that having that additional visual reference is a big help when trying to decide which saber to get.
