"Video Review to follow"

^Double Monarch. Wow. lol

Get mine tomorrow

SWEET...CANT WAIT TO SEE THAT BAD A.. STAFF!!! Post your pics right her with mine!

DARK MAL

I don't know what mine is. Got a Consular for my main order though XD

I need to stop getting on the forums until my package arrives.  Tuesday, you cannot come soon enough!  I'll still be on here, checking out what people get tomorrow.  Nice score on the twin Monarchs!

Awesome Mal, grats!!!!!!

Your right bro sorry! At first I that you we're the Grand Prize winner...sorry!
A Counselor would be Awesome. Lets us know. Post lots of pics...

DARK MAL

Dark Mal... these are AWESOME!!!!! Congrats man, and you being as happy as you were was TOTALLY justified after seeing these!  ;D

Great sabers there!

Mal they are sweet.  Like the silver blade with silver AV on the nickel hilt...very cool.

You totally need to get a coupler and make a staff now, if only they were both Nickel Plated.  I am truly jealous though as a Monarch is next on my wishlist, congrats very much on that awesome win.

That Nickel Monarch is bad a$$!! Did you receive those Lee Filters yet?

^Indeed and I do have that already. Just one blade will be brighter than the other.

Also noticed it is a 32" blade and not a 36"

Nice Monarch. Especially the NP one with the silver blade and silver av switch. Just screams awesome. I'd never part with that one. The silver Monarch is cool too though because I like blue blades. xp But the NP all silver Monarch is the best looking one I've seen yet. The NP sets off the silver blade/switch so its not all matching colors which is cool.

Not yet enzo...not yet!

DARK MAL

Here is mine:

1st Prize
Dominix V3 (Not LE) Vented pommel
Blazing Red (No FOC)
Sound (V1 Sound board)
Resistor and Lithium (With 1st gen speaker/battery holder)

Oh and I put a 36 Mid on it instead of the 32" Ultra Edge that came with it.

I don't like Red in ultra edge.

I used to be very pro-UE, but now i prefer the regular Mid Grades.  UEs are still really good for pictures in a normally lit or dark room.  In daylight, even overcast or sunset hidden by a strong tree line, you see too much of the plastic with UEs.  They also don't look as good on a shelf to me.  i will say that my wife's Dominix V2 SRD looks really good with a UE blade.

Gorgeous sabers!  I was being good and patient waiting for mine, but you're making it hard posting these pictures.

Not lovin these two hilt colors together! But still cool...

DARK MAL

There are still a lot of raffle winners we haven't heard from yet.

Mine should arrive sometime today.  I'll be happy to post as soon as I have it.

Blue

heh yeah MAL, the silver monarch should not even exist, its a disgrace to the Nickel plated version.  That being said I guess I wouldn't complain if I got it for free!

I got the same prize last raffle  ;D

The last few things i got from US arrived before noon on the delivery date.  I don't think this one's going to show up before i leave for work.  For some reason the "local" fedex location was in a city over an hour away, and since it went out for delivery over 6 hours ago, i'm guessing we're at the end of the driver's route.  I guess the locations that are actually in town are for the express and ground deliveries, and this is fedex home?  Not sure how all that works.  Oh well.  It should show up tonight while i'm at work.  People will be home and awake all night.  I got a first prize, so i'm going to have to wait til tomorrow to take pics because the sound will wake up my wife.  Unless it shows up in the next 45 minutes.  Then i'll quick post a few pics.

Just got my 1st prize saber:  It is the Dark Reaper!!!  It is Obsidian sound with Green AV switch and the LED color is Emerald Green.  The blade is Ultraedge (non HG).  I am sitting with my daughter at the moment so taking pics are impossible.  As sson as I get a chance though, pics of this thing are coming.  It also has quick disconnect installed and it is not a Flash on Clash version.  This is my very first sound saber without Flash on Clash and I am very happy.  Blade length is 36". 

IT'S HERE!!!!!!!!!!  I'll limit the pics to just the raffle prize for this thread.  Scored a Guardian in Arctic Blue with Silver flash and blue AV with UE blade!  One of the hilts i was REALLY hoping for (sounds like bluespike got the other one, nice!) in one of the colors i would have chosen had i bought it.  Not sure if it's with a resistor or buck puck.  Wasn't sure if it was GB or AB until i put in the Mid Grade and held it next to a saber with my AB MLS.  Epic raffle score!

Great score on the Guardian, Japz.  Very nice!

Japz, thats awesome. I hope I get the same thing or a consular.

My sabers came today as well, its not my raffle saber. I bought two tickets
for the raffle, a good thing to. It was my second purchase that won. In this
order I got the Dark War Glaive, with QD GB, buckpuck, silver claws. Think
I might switch it out to BR. and I got a grab bag. Aeon v3 CG, now I got a
Aeon staff in CG Woooohoooo.
My raffle saber will be here tmw with my Dark Shock in BR QD and a black
Yari Pike extension. I'm thinking about switching BR to GB.

Well it looks like Japz is winning so far, congrats man that is a fully loaded saber and one of my favorite hilts as well.  I own a Guardian but wish mine had a/v switch and FOC.

I am soon jealous. That guardian was on my list of wants

Japz definitely hit the lotto with that score. Congrats!!

BLUE!!! Dude awesome prize...I know its not Blue but a nice forum color is pretty sweet! My Silver Monarch is Blue...wanna trade. ;D

DARK MAL

Oh my Japz...you Lucky son of a Gun!!!!
Enjoy buddy...

DARK MAL

I can't get over how great that Monarch looks Mal. The nickel plating with the white on white makes it look so regal.

I think US needs to make nickel plating an option on every saber.

Agreed Enzo...at least start making some accessories in Nickel. So many pummels would look SWEET in Nickel.
Lee Filters on the way...only $.01 SWEET.
You'll need to walk me thru how to use them of course...we'll talk soon.

DARK MAL

All my luck for last week and this week went to winning a first prize in the raffle and getting one of the sabers of awesomeness.  i have no luck left.

I cannot put into words the feeling I go through everytime my lightsabers
come in. I go to work and load my truck (FedEx driver) and my pkg rides
with me all day. Usually I cant take it and open it at the terminal. Today
I will try to be strong and wait till I get home before I open it.

Japz, you got an awesome Guardian, you dont need anymore luck.
Nice score.
I agree with Dark Mal, nickel plate everything.  :D

Lol Adak, i can tell you there is no way I would have the patience to get wait until I get home, but more power to you sir.

Not my best pics but it was the only camera I could find around the house today:

Man, that's gorgeous, Blue.

Video review of the Reaper as well as my Archon staff will follow today.

Man, two Archons and now the Reaper! Just awesome!! Can't wait to see them on video! Congrats Blue, and to the other winners as well!

If you think you are going to come on these forums and whine about the $200-$400 FREE prize you got mailed to you for free, then think again.  This is the most ridiculous behavior I have ever seen.  I thought we had built a better community than this.  There are THOUSANDS of other people on these forums and hundreds of other people that entered the raffle as well that wished they could have won anything.  And winners are here whining on the forums.  Consider this a public first and last warning about it.  Cut it out.

And if I seem annoyed, it's because I am.  Giving away thousands of dollars in lightsabers to see people whining about in on the forums tends to do that to you.

Have to agree with Deep on this one, I really hope this does not discourage them from doing future raffles.  I personally really appreciate the opportunity win or lose and am extremely happy with the item I received for my raffle entry.  If I had won a prize its nothing but a huge bonus.  Please keep doing what you do US.

ya some amazing prizes, as always (any US is amazing).... man that reaper with EG is so nice... i want the color eventually... after winning the first raffle i entered it has been hard not to enter the last two raffles that have happened since.... i look forward to the next raffle so i can hopefully enter again... the raffles are so much fun! please dont stop doing them! I check US daily just to see what deals are up, it is half the fun!

I was unfortunately low enough on funds that I couldn't enter the raffle. Still, those are some amazing prizes!

I sure hope you guys aren't discouraged from doing future promotions like the raffle; the raffle gave me the push I needed to pull the trigger on a saber I had been thinking about, and even though I didn't win the drawing, I still came out of it with a saber I instantly loved, so I like to think I did win.  :)

@Blue That reaper is a thing of beauty. Plus emerald green is kinda blueish for you!

Aye' Carumba!   :o  Received my raffle prize today.  A Raven in Guardian Blue, silver FoC, blue illuminated AV, Obsidian 2.1 sound, 36" Ultraedge midgrade blade, regular claws & pommel, and the standard charger.  Though this is the first time I have seen the Raven in person, I always favored the regular size claws.  These things are HUGE...I can't imagine what the Super Sith claws must look like!  Totally awesome because I didn't have this saber and have always wanted one!  I will wind up sending her in to have a recharge port added because I just love in-hilt recharge capability.  Super-duper cool!  

Thank you Ultrasabers!!!   ;D

DARK MAL

Whoa, what the frack did i miss?

Nice wins on the Standard Issue and Raven.  Hopefully weather will be clear tomorrow so i can do my vid reviews for my wife's staff which was the raffle entry purchase and my prize Guardian.

EDIT: Darn, more thunderstorms...  Looks like i'll have to try to do an indoors review while my son takes his nap.  I'll have to spend the morning cleaning up the room then.  Sigh...  Glad i'm off on Thursdays.

Yeah wow I have been following the thread then bam something happen? Plus why would you complain for winning a raffle? But I haven't seen anyone complaint.

The comments were removed.

Nice score on the Raven Schtuperman... I love your Crimson Reaper also.

OMG.  It arrived this morning, 8 am local time; after almost 9 agonizing days (normal).  My wife told me in no uncertain terms, "you will open that box before I go to work."  Yeah, she's an Ultra Sabers fan-boy...ette too.   :-*

The box end I slit open with my shaky, knife-wielding hand revealed a white blade tip.  Score #1...Saint's 1st UltaEdge blade!

As I started to pull up on the blade, I noticed an un-typical amount of heft hanging below.  Continuing, the rising bubble wrap started to widen...revealing the blade tips.  Score #2...Malice!!!!

Completing my withdrawal, this bad boy was sporting a silver activation box (Score #3!).  Couldn't bear the delay with swapping out the batteries for some freshly charged ones from my tickle trunk, so I fired 'er up for a couple seconds.  A beautiful, solid, Violet Amethyst...with Red AV...and of course that delicious Obsidian hum.

THANK YOU Ultra Sabers for a MOST GENEROUS 1st-place raffle prize.  Pix (hopefully) later today.

Cheers!!!   ;D ;D ;D

Mine just shipped.  I'll be getting her on Tuesday!

Holy crap Saint, nice!  Yeah, i priced my Guardian too, $349 before shipping.  US is awesome for sending so many of these as prizes.  Especially since they added 4 Obsidians and 1 stunt w/ Li-Ions to the raffle when they announced the winners.  That's 4 more $200+ sabers and another $90+ than they originally said they'd be sending out.

And hey, Knight's GP got sent out.  Very cool.

twk,im sure im not the only one waiting with you ,for your grand prize,
congrats on the win,cant wait to see

My brother loves your all silver Monarch by the way. xp

My saber arrived today!  It got in around threeish in the afternoon.  My Mother texted me, but I was unable to get home until about eleven at night.  I could barely stand the wait knowing it was at home.    They are immensely more beautiful than I ever imagined.  I am unable to express the measure of my gratitude to Emory and Ultrasabers.  Thank you so much, and not only for the prize, but for all you do offering the best lightsabers I have ever seen on the market at prices that are simply a steal.  Unfortunately, the magic show that kept me away from my sabers today is happening tomorrow.  Thus, I must get some rest so that I'm at my best for the show, but I promise to take photos and do a video review as soon as I am able.  (I already had my new sound fonts ready to download a few days before my sabers arrived.)

WK, you're still teasing.  You're evil.   ;)  Standing by...

My Spring Raffle Prize with a nice mod in the pummel & my signed Malice Emitter mounted on my wall with a pike!!

DARK MAL

I absolutely love what you did with your Monarch, Dark Mal.  It really looks fantastic!

Nice extension on the Monarch.  And i love the signed Malice.  So epic!

Having issues with doing my raffle entry/prize reviews.  I just ordered a (supposedly) 720 HD capable webcam that will hopefully (along with my laptop) allow me to do vids indoors and outside and i'm hoping that with the design of the camera's base and a stack of lawn chairs i'll be able to fix my camera positioning issues outside.  Trying to use my smartphone's camera is finally getting on my nerves.

Mal, great mod to the Monarch!  :D

Mal, the silver Guardian pommel part matched with the Monarch's pommel is perfect - so much so that I wonder why this isn't a standard feature? The pommel just looks right to me like that.

all I want to know is, what is up with that Crystal, that is bad @$$  totally cool setups, your making me love the monarch even more, got to gets me the dark one though...

I have to admit the Monarch's look is much improved with the mod added.  Gives it a decent pike look.
