Title: Vex's Sentinel Reaper Review (pic heavy) Post by: Vex on March 31, 2013, 11:51:00 PM Vex's Sentinel Reaper Review
This saber is amazing. It is very customizable being a MHS saber. It's very fun to wield and looks AMAZING! Ultra Sabers really put a lot of heart and skill into making this beauty! -Claws- The claws are sweet! Well made , and can be dueled with. Each has 2 set screws. Losses the set screws and rotate the claw to a desired position. They can also be removed, however I don't see why you would want to , they give the saber that menacing look! -Emitter- 10/10 the emitter is windowed and also has a 45degree angle! Yes a MHS 45 degree emitter....WOOT! Plus the wicked adjustable claw! -Shroud-10/10 At first look I wasn't a fan of the shroud. However after a few spins.....yup US knows what they are doing! It is very comfortable and located on the saber at a great spot for spins and control! -Hilt-9/10 The hilt is comprised of 2 sections. Both are machined with grooves that give the saber a ver unique look! My only complaint here is the while the 2 sections can be separated , they can't be fully taken apart. The battery pack is too wide to be removed from the narrowed chamber . I added a QD to mine so the section can be removed for farther customization options, such as the Dark Arbiter grenade grip. -Covertech Wheel- 10/10 The Covertech Wheel is well placed, and since you can rotate the claws on the pommel and the emitter, it can be placed where ever you need it as far as gripping the hilt. -Pommel- 10/10 Here again is another awesome part. A 45 degree cut and a opened end make for a NICE pommel. I have a stunt currently , but I imagine that this saber will be super loud once I install sound later. Also another adjustable claw!!!!! I am really impressed with this saber! Ultra Sabers this is a work of art! I did add a QD harness to the inside. By that I mean the harness can be fully disassembled by QDs. The latching yellow AV switch I installed, the MLS , the Battery Pack all have QDs installed.

After getting a chance to handle one at Wondercon my mind has been changed regarding this hilt. Here's a point my friend. Title: Re: Vex's Sentinel Reaper Review (pic heavy) Post by: Sky Dragon c5 on April 01, 2013, 03:05:36 AM I love Yellow Sabers... OMG the yellow AV just makes it better
Title: Re: Vex's Sentinel Reaper Review (pic heavy) Post by: Darth Ryga on April 06, 2013, 05:25:34 AM Nice choice Vex. Beautiful combination
Title: Re: Vex's Sentinel Reaper Review (pic heavy) Post by: Vex on April 06, 2013, 03:21:50 PM Thanks a lot all!
Title: Re: Vex's Sentinel Reaper Review (pic heavy) Post by: Zren Tobas on April 06, 2013, 09:55:41 PM Lol@Kham for the picture. I agree though. Awesome saber especially with that Overlord emitter. ;o I say mix the Overlord emitter with the under shroud thing. That would look sick. Does it have sound?
Title: Re: Vex's Sentinel Reaper Review (pic heavy) Post by: chicago.jedi on April 07, 2013, 02:48:54 AM Love the pictures. I like the one of the Reaper ends on the Overlord body. That thing looks like it could really put a hurt on someone!! If the devil carried a saber, that would be how it would look :D.
Point for a thorough review. Title: Re: Vex's Sentinel Reaper Review (pic heavy) Post by: Vex on April 07, 2013, 04:42:30 AM It's just a stunt saber currently, but it will get sound eventually .
Title: Re: Vex's Sentinel Reaper Review (pic heavy) Post by: Saint on April 07, 2013, 11:36:55 AM Congrats Vex. NICE combos! I did a double take on your swapping the lower body half for the grenade grip. BRILLIANT! 8)
Cheers! Title: Re: Vex's Sentinel Reaper Review (pic heavy) Post by: Darth_Phobius47 on April 18, 2013, 09:47:15 PM I just stumbled on this review & I have only one question......THE WHOLE THING CAN GET QUICK DISCONNECTS???? My real question: Does it cost anything to fully QD it or does it come standard when you click "add QD"?
