Title: The Shockicore.....or Mantishock? Post by: noheddardstark on February 06, 2013, 05:26:36 AM Just wanted to post a picture of my collection so far, including my slightly customized sabers - The Mantishock and Shockicore. :P I know it's not a huge change on either, but like others I thought the Manticore emitter looked spectacular on a Shock LE. And since the gold emitter didn't look so great on a Manticore, I picked up an emitter from a Dark Shock. Personally, I'm really happy with how that particular combination turned out. The Consular on the left is completely stock at this point.
Here's one with sabers off: (http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/9973/img3210e.jpg) (http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/9973/img3210e.jpg) And here they are ignited: (http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/8723/img3212do.jpg) (http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/8723/img3212do.jpg) The Manticore is the only one with FOC, and I went with Arctic Blue as the flash option. If you haven't tried GB with AB, I highly recommend it. It's different enough so that it's obviously flashing, but just blue enough that it's not the "white" effect flash can give you with an UltraEdge blade. Anyway, just wanted to share. I'd love to hear your thoughts. Or any suggestions for different pommel combinations. - NHS Title: Re: The Shockicore.....or Mantishock?

I do like the dark shock emitter on there. I was debating using my dark shock pommel and emitter on a Dark Reaper since I love the hilt and dislike the claws. I have my dark shock with the same emitter but an Archon classic pommel (http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/5533/sam0042k.jpg) Thread http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=12035.0 (http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=12035.0) I still need a good name for mine though XD Title: Re: The Shockicore.....or Mantishock?

Might I suggest renaming it to Coreshock, or something similar? Shockicore sounds really odd to me. Either way though, cool sabers! Title: Re: The Shockicore.....or Mantishock? Post by: Kham-Ryn Kurios on February 06, 2013, 06:57:21 PM The Shock LE combo is by far my favorite that you've got there, the gold always gets it referenced to Windu's saber and with that Manticore emitter it resembles it even more so.

Post by: Oramac on February 06, 2013, 07:28:27 PM Oooh, Coreshock.....this, I like. Nicely done. Thank you, sir. Glad I could help! And I agree with Kham here too. Definitely has a Windu-esque feel to it. More so because it's VA. As if we needed another reason to like the combo! lol. Title: Re: The Shockicore.....or Mantishock? Post by: Sky Dragon c5 on February 06, 2013, 07:54:40 PM @Kham I may use the same combo if you think it looks more like Windu's Saber. That's my next one anyways.
