Title: Spring Raffle 2 - Grand Prize and Entry Review Post by: James Casey on May 14, 2013, 11:18:36 PM My raffle entry and prizes arrived yesterday, and tonight I took a lot of photos and recorded my review. Enjoy!

It seems like I could have talked about these for a lot, lot longer... Probably for the best for you guys that I had to limit myself to ten minutes!

I still wonder could you have gotten AV switches or quick disconnect on your raffle prizes? Title: Re: Spring Raffle 2 - Grand Prize and Entry Review Post by: Hibyrd on May 15, 2013, 12:52:54 AM Awesome choices James!! Great review and a fantastic collection! Enjoy and congrats again!

Title: Re: Spring Raffle 2 - Grand Prize and Entry Review Post by: Darth_Phobius47 on May 15, 2013, 03:29:47 AM Very nice! I think I like the AB Bellicose more than your grand prizes. But hey, they were free so who can complain! Great choice on the Manticore! Do I see a staff in the making? Duh! Lol

The Bellicose is on my short list, but the Shock and Manticore are two of my personal favorites. They handle amazingly. You will undoubtably enjoy them. Congratulations! ;D

This was my second attempt at a video. I ran out of time on my camera mid-way through the second of three when I tried it first time around, and still only just got inside the ten minute mark. Otherwise, I'd have shown them all lit up in the dark, as well as showing how bright they are compared to the MR 'sabre (although I may just need new batteries in that one). Sky Dragon, I could have had any of the options available on the 'sabres, but I would have had to pay extra. The only thing I wanted was the covertec wheel on the Manticore. There was no extra charge for the BH flash on the Shock, though. Darth_Phobius, the Bellicose is undoubtedly my favourite, but I love them all! The Manticore makes a great off-hand weapon with the shorter blade, as I'd suspected it would. And any combination of the three makes a tremendous staff, too. |
