Kresnik I like that idea alot in regard to the "featured custom saber". And I'm just gonna say again hilt engravings! then you really get that individual pride in your saber and makes each piece more unique.

Apologies if this has been said before - but I have a suggestion not for the Lightsabers themselves but rather the Ultra Sabers website. It would be REALLY fantastic if you could add a dynamic picture of the lightsaber model next to the list of drop-downs that customers select their options from. That way you could dynamically see what the Hilt looks like with the various blade colors, a different pommel, etc. based on the customer's selections in the drop-down menu. (Think like car websites where the picture of the car changes color based on your selection so you can get an idea of what it looks like.) That would be sweet - only problem would be I would spend WAY too much time on the website checking out various options.  |

Being able to purchase each saber part individually. For example, even though I want a Reaper, I want to get a different pommel, but I can't just buy all the Reaper parts EXCEPT for the pommel as I have to buy both the full Reaper and the other pommel.

And it goes along with... Being able to purchase each saber part individually. For example, even though I want a Reaper, I want to get a different pommel, but I can't just buy all the Reaper parts EXCEPT for the pommel as I have to buy both the full Reaper and the other pommel.
Adding this to the "dynamic picture" idea would be a one two punch of awesome. A lot of us would like to have full access to the parts menu. Would def see some more customized hilts. The only thing we all need to realize is the more customizing we are able to do the longer US turnaround would be. They used to do custom work and stopped a while ago for reasons unbeknownst to me, but they had their reasons. All in all cool ideas guys! |

In my opinion, as long as I can pay for only the parts I want and no more, time isn't all that much of an issue for me. |

Agreed, but since having so many customs come through, the operation as a whole slows down making their costs of labor and what not go up and the profit margin stay about the same. From a business stand point if think they won't go down this road unless they hiked the price up IMO

It doesn't help that they mass machine parts at the moment either, so they would either have to mass machine parts for whole sabers and then on-request machine parts for custom ones (which might take much longer to do, and as you mentioned, raise the price), or on-request machine everything. |

Something I've seen lately "around" is a rumble motor. I think this could be a cool new feature to incorporate into US hilts. Also adding more accent lights would IMO really make some of these hilts pop. With or with out these extra bells and whistles I'm still never going anywhere else for my saber needs!!! And yeah Ronin it just seems like a big undertaking for little gain on their part...  |

How about a "dual pulse" feature with the Emerald driver...
It will allow you to get the really fast flicker effect simultaneously with a slower pulse.

more durable battery packs or more protection inside the hilt itself. I've smashed two battery packs already and replacing them is annoying.
