Title: What blade is the brightest?
Post by: TortugaRidley on April 17, 2011, 05:04:11 AM
I know Blue is the brightest color, and green second, but what is the brightest blade? Are they all the same?

This is a good comparison.

But, like color, it's more a matter of preference than "brightness".

I'm just looking for the most realistic looking blade

Realistic when it's off or on? The metallic look of the Standard Ultra Blade looks most realistic when off (and your saber will be off the vast majority of it's life), but the full edge-to-edge look of the UltraEdge Blade looks most realistic when on (and your saber will be on the vast majority of the time when you're dueling).  What's most important to you?

When on, I want to have a nice even color and brightness on the blade.

That describes all our blades.  They are all bright and even.  I suggest you do some more reading here since the differences between blades have been discussed already at length.

Okay, right now I'm still deciding  between here and a force FX saber

That's like saying you're deciding between an M-16 Rifle and a Nerf Gun.  :D

You can't duel with a Hasbro Force FX, all you can do is look at it.  If that's all you need in a saber, then I guess the Hasbro is for you.  Personally, I think that a blade that breaks as easily as a Force FX is the least "realistic" blade you can have.

I have  to agree with Ultra there. For your own sake, do not go down the Hasbro road. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. (sorry, I couldn't resist)

But seriously, sure, the Hasbro line had more replica sabers made to look just like the ones from the movies... but all you can do is look at them. Trust me, you're going to want to duel and do cool spins and things, and having a more durable Ultra Saber is the way to go if that's what you're in to!

Hasbro sucks, pure and simple.

Before I heard of Ultra sabers I owned nothing but Hasros. Now only 2 out of 5 function with no problem.
After ordering an Ultra saber, I haven't so much as looked at a Hasbro.
Listen to Ultra and get an ultra saber. You won't want anything else after that, trust me.

Or you can compromise by buying a Hasbro Fx and having Ultra Sabers convert it. Or simply buy an already converted one from them.
