Saber Forum

Hi everyone! Thought I'd post a pic of my two US. Absolutely love em both! I have a couple more showing up soon so when they get here I'll post pics of them as well :)

(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-JZBgRW0mKnY/Vbqt51B9nNI/AAAAAAAAAtU/3uWL32k_dXU/w622-h1104-no/2015-07-30.jpg)

My first one was the Scorpion in Guardian blue. In the video Emory posted I remember he said they took all their top features that people really liked and put them into one hilt. I thought to myself that that seemed like the one to get! About a month later I ordered up my second one which is the Belicose in Consular Green. I was surprised by how much I liked it!

Both have Obsidian sound as well. Very very happy with them! Can't wait to get my new ones in  :D

Very nice!  I always like seeing Scorpions in something other than Sith colors.  Love the green on the Bellicose too. 

Thanks! I think the blue goes great with it and I'm not much of a sith person so red really wasn't an option for me personally :)

Those look amazing Lady J, love em :D
The Bellicose is a really nice saber, my favourite of those two :) but The scorpion is also really nice

Thanks Brainiac! And yeah the Belicose is a great hilt. I wish I could get the claw off of the Scorpion, because then I'd probably like it a bit more tbh, but I think the screw is stripped or just crazy tight on there so not sure I can! Be that as it may I still love it  ;D

I think I'm gonna get one lol. I agree completely its one of the better looking hilts.
Hmm I like how the claw looks but I guess its down to preferences.

Ugh! I hate stripped screws, I use WD-40 or some kind of lubricant and a pliers if the screw head is exposed slightly. Idk if that would work.

Either way it looks really cool J ;)

I like the claw as well! And thanks :)

Sure, no problem 😊

Those are two good looking hilts!
I have a Scorpion and I personally think it's one of the best and most original designs US carries.

Don't have a Bellicose, but I always flirt with the idea of getting one.
 :P

Nice sabers!

BTW, did you pick your screenname based on the GI Joe character?

Thank you! And I was presently surprised with the Belicose. If you do get one, I have no doubt you'll love it :)

Thanks :) and no lol I didn't. I thought of that when I was picking it out actually. Just like how it sounds so I went with it!

Great sabers Lady J..... +1  :)

I also really like the Scorpion in GB, great choice.....  :D

Thank you very much :) I like the blue blade with the black hilt. I think its a great combo!

So I got my new sabers in today and could not be happier!

Dark Monarch in VA:

I love this hilt much more than I expected. And the color is perfect! Very elegant :)

Archon V2.1 in AB:
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-LeHLIynAT0I/VcDima-JhJI/AAAAAAAAAwA/X0NuuOqc0NA/w1472-h1104-no/2015-08-04.jpg)

Again very very pleased with this saber. I love the black AV switch and the AB color! Gorgeous hilt. Probably my new fave to be honest!

And my free premium grab bag is a RGB Bellicose. Now I already have a Bellicose so I was a little bummed but the button color, pommel and blade holder are all different than the one I currently have so thats great. Plus the RGB feature is awesome! I'm thinking I'll leave it as red so I have a sith saber ;D can't believe this was FREE!

(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-T259JqQx5oo/VcDipKxyzhI/AAAAAAAAAwY/wNPmj_CaLBw/w828-h1104-no/2015-08-04.jpg)

And here's all of them together!
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-wB2bSjwGf5I/VcDipwBlcAI/AAAAAAAAAwg/k7Af75WGuj8/w1472-h1104-no/2015-08-04.jpg)

Love them so much. Thanks Ultra Sabers!!!! :D

Ooohh.. nice score Lady J!

Thanks! Really happy right now ;D

Very nice additions Lady J  ;D ;D

Thank ya! Light or Dark side points? :)

Oh Light for sure  ;) I'm a Jedi, like my father before me  ;D

Nice saber collection and free RGB Bellicose =] You'll have to share some of the other colors and the mixed ones too

Done and done :)

I will roger that!

Thanks  ;D That'd be my first point lol

Ok so here are all the color possibilities per request!

Red:
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-EJl4Uf87Yvo/VcDwG0Sbv5I/AAAAAAAAAxI/NV1LY1ctz5Q/w1472-h1104-no/2015-08-04.jpg)

Green:
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-t7ohdBPsxtY/VcDwHoePeTI/AAAAAAAAAxY/TIGQ8vdLu_Y/w1472-h1104-no/2015-08-04.jpg)

Blue:
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-bThv4BPivHY/VcDwJoVqolI/AAAAAAAAAxo/l_xcAiTFtRQ/w1472-h1104-no/2015-08-04.jpg)

Red/Green combo:
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-LG_oiXVk4dI/VcDwMaAfoMI/AAAAAAAAAx4/TLcP_V6i46g/w1472-h1104-no/2015-08-04.jpg)

Its like a yellow orange in person.

Red/Blue:
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-CfHseC_N9mE/VcDwOVVXIWI/AAAAAAAAAyI/jt0cfvUVb_E/w1472-h1104-no/2015-08-04.jpg)

This is definitely a dark pink in person. Kinda cool actually! The Violet Amethyst on my Dark Monarch is a more blue-ish purple and this is quite a bit lighter in color and much more red/pink

Green/Blue:
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-enypN6C8Xpg/VcDwcgXNz8I/AAAAAAAAAyY/n4ueCZextGA/w1472-h1104-no/2015-08-04.jpg)

Its almost identical to the Arctic Blur color.

Red/Green/Blue:
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-axT0_7G0iEw/VcDwdrMeZhI/AAAAAAAAAyg/Dejgv-BnWys/w1472-h1104-no/2015-08-04.jpg)

This color is really really pale in person. Its like an uber light pink or something...

Sorry for the lengthy post and all the pics lol. Just wanted to show off all the colors! Thanks again Ultra Sabers!

Looks great  ;)
and I think we love long posts and lots of pics here lol  ;D

Great pics at that  :D

Nice line up Lady J

Thanks! +1

Point for the great pics showing the Bellicose's versatility with RGB.  I think the Bellicose is the only saber I have seen that actually looks good with an RGB setup.  I am not a fan of the guarded switch, and four of them on any other saber is just too much.  :P

Thanks! :)

I agree I prefer having the AV switches. But it looks good on the bellicose. Its funny having two of them but having them be so different!

Yep I agree.

The Bellicose looks almost as if designed for RGB, whereas the others have to be stretched to accomodate the 4 switches. Plus I love the slanted emitter.

Shame that they are just a touch too heavy to dual wield!!
Dual Bellicose's would sure be awesome sight.

Yeah no kidding! I go for aesthetics when I get a saber cuz I don't dual so. But it would certainly be awesome to see them in action

Nice. I like the yellow orange color combo

Awesome pics Lady J..... more points for you  :)

Thanks ;D

Well I added another saber to the collection today! I got a crimson reaper with obsidian sound, silver illuminated AV switch and the blade color is adegan silver. I absolutely LOVE the red anodizing. It really is amazing!

(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/KWobpnn2mCLpb-XGUjUoDgZqlwcOI9oUfVu0pDm382Q=w622-h1104-no)

I like the blade color a lot more than I thought I would as well. It accents the crimson hilt very nicely.

(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-MOQNV9onuQk/VcYYVCMYMvI/AAAAAAAAA9w/cAa6WSlQddQ/w622-h1104-no/2015-08-08.jpg)

Yeah still drooling lol, Its seriously amazing. Great choice on the color and extras  ;D :o :D ;) :)

Excellent choice!  I also have a CR and it's an amazing hilt, so many ways to customize it just using the parts on the hilt.  I keep the claws and silver shroud piece off of mine.  Looks good in AS.  I have mine in DVA with a silver illuminated AV switch.  Glad you and your bf are enjoying the new hilt! :)

(http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y3/PROWL1701/IMG_1586.jpg~original)

Thanks! And I watched your review a few times before ordering! I like the shroud but the claws are staying off :)

<<< I thought there was no option other than red. ;D

Haha :) the red looks amazing on it obviously but not really my style  ;)

I can fix that. >:D

Lol I think I'll pass  ;)

Even with the promise of cookies? ::)

(https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/90/a3/de/90a3de6b445671b0e7adcf798f079edc.jpg)

I've seen this.

...what kind of cookies exactly?

My top secret chocolate chip cookies,
white chocolate chip chocolate cookies,
white chocolate macadamia nut cookies,
peanut butter cookies
sugar cookies
turtle cookies
snickerdoodles

Any requests?

All of the above please  :) lol

Gladly. _{My new apprentice}

So how did you score a trade for Brainiac's Premium Grab Bag?

I gave him the RGB Bellicose. He really wanted it so it worked out great for the both of us!

No, I mean how do you know each other?

She's my super awesome GF :D lol

That would explain it.

Awesome........  :)  Puts new meaning to "friends with benefits" lol.......  :P

Haha yeah it sure does lol

I could use a friend with benefits.  :'(

Nah! You could use more Sabers (http://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/images/smilies/lol.gif)

Thus far that is one benefit to being this single. But I have NEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDSSSSSS, bro. I need I-missed-you kisses and some hand holding. _{Amonst other things}

Sweeeeeeeeet 😉

lol :D those are underrated

In the meantime you could look into getting a dog :) :P
Or possibly an Ewok or Wookie ;D

Any of those would work lol

Hahaha...... Kisses from a Wookie ??

Well, if she's cute, I guess   :-*

I have a dog.


And her kisses are enough to peel paint.

So today I was just messing around with my sabers and swapping different parts. One of the combinations I did was putting the Dark Mantis emitter on my Archon and I think it looks pretty good!

(http://i.imgur.com/3KH8uEk.jpg)

Not sure I'll keep it like this because I love the Archon as is but we'll see.

That doesnt look half bad! I might have to pick up that emitter for my dark sentinel...

Thanks! I am on the fence about it myself. I think it looks good but I think the straight up Archon looks better. The emitter is gorgeous tho!

Perhaps a silver mantis would be more suitable? But yes i agree the archon is gorgeous on its own :)

I thought the same! Unfortunately they don't sell the mantis emitter separately as of now lol

It really looks great with that emitter :) In fact the Archon is just plain beautiful with everything, love it, I gotta get my own so I don't steal yours :P

No touchy! lol I encourage you getting your own  ;D

haha maybe I will :D and if I get a Mantis Emitter, you no touchy :D

That Archon/Mantis emitter looks pretty sweet. Like an edgy type Jedi saber design or something. Now I'm wanting a colored Reaper after all but Azure for me but not sure which blade color I'd go for. It'd either have to be Arctic/Guardian blue or Sun Rider's Destiny for me. I'd also take off the top claw, shroud, but put a different pommel on the bottom as well. I had similar plans for a Dark Reaper as well in the future. Your Reaper kinda has an Iron Man theme going on though but if the blade was ordered in Sentinel Yellow then yeah :P Someone needs to do this. Lol

I was going for an edgy Jedi saber so thats perfect!  ;D I think I'd go with SRD with the Azure Reaper but that's just me. Your idea for it sounds awesome! And its kinda funny you say that about my reaper because I am a huge Avengers fan (seriously I have an obsession) and when I built that reaper thats exactly what I had intended lol. I'm not a fan of the yellow which is why I went with silver.

Deal lol  :P

That would be awesome to see, I'd love Avenger themed Sabers lol, I'd get a Hawkeye Mantis or something

or like those lol :D

Well thats putting it mildly LOL :D
(http://yoursmiles.org/tsmile/hug/t4608.gif)

Nice photoshopping!!!

You kinda can do that with an Azure Menace just not the pommel, unless you order a Crimson Menace pommel :P

Love it. Want it. The color scheme on this has shmexy writing al over it.

Its cool right? :) It would make a great Sith Saber even without the Widow logo on it :)

Well duh

Careful, Sith lords are my specialty  :D (http://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/images/smilies/lsvader.gif)

Bring it.


and I'm steeling your cartoon

Question: Am I still gonna get my cookies or what?  ::)

Damn Sith  :'(
(http://thebullspen.com/public/style_emoticons/default/lightsaberfight.gif)

Well considering your 24 LS points I think that ship has sailed. Cookies are for those that turn.



This one too.

25 now lol :D

50% of those cartoons are Jedi :) There is still good in you ;)

Can i get a cookie? :(

Though funny, they don't really show the Jedi winning. >:D


Yes. Cookies for all my dark side homies.

Well looks like I'm gonna have to make my own cookies  :-\

Considering those Jedi hippies, they're probably whole-wheat with tofu chips.

 ;D Peanut butter? or maybe snickerdoodles? :D

Umm no  :P


I'm thinking chocolate chip peanut butter for sure!

Sounds like dark side potential is building

Woooo!!! Much better than Darkside cookies :)

Nah...i saw them with oatmeal raisin...made from local farmers market vendor ingredients!

Yup a lot better than Sith cookies, I hear they are made by child wookie slaves on Kashyyyk! SMH!!

Awesome Sabers Lady J!

I will join the Bellicose club someday soon (hoping next week)

Thanks! And it really is a beautiful hilt! What color did you pick?

CCPB are on my bake list, so those are DS cookies.


Those are not XÞ

If you lose the battle they get to eat your cookies...    :o

Join me, and together we can rule the galaxy as chef and pâtissier.

Haha point for you sir lol

Why, Consular Green of course!

Awesome!

Shyeah! Green's my favorite color. Now I just have to wait another 1-2 weeks for US to get around to making my saber XD

I feel your pain lol. Just starting my wait for my sabers!

What next sabers did you end up getting? Unless I missed what you said :P I highly Recommend a Dominix V4 LE saber. Really is a nice one if you just want something simple. Unless that is one of them :P

No, sadly I did not get a Dominix V4 LE. It is high up on my list to get though! I think it looks amazing and from what I've heard its a great hilt all around so eventually I will be getting one  :)

I got the Manticore in GB and the Guardian in Sun Rider's Destiny. So excited  ;D

actually have the dominix V4 GBand enjoy it very much.

the scorpion keeps growing on me, less sithy w/o the claw.

Originally when I got it I had planned on taking the claw off but I was unable to get the screws out. Its grown on me tho and I like it now :) but yes with out the claw it would be much less sithy lol

Update on the arsenal!

really cool pics lady j :)

Thank you!

I was gonna ask somebody, if you can remove the claw from the scorpion. I love silver and black sabers! I think I would love a scorpion without the claw.

Impressive . . . Most Impressive . . . +1  8)

That is some saber collection...  and forgive me for saying this but especially for a Lady.  ;D  You are living proof of my saber dreams minus the Monarch.  Now just add a Prophecy into your next photos.  +1 point from me.   8) 

That is a beautiful collection of sabers.  I currently only have one from your collection (the Manticore), but soon will have the Archon v3 as well. 

I have to admit I'm a little jealous, but I can only hope that one day I have such a nice collection myself.

KDP

Thank you  :D


Haha thank you very much :) the Prophecy is next on my list! Just waiting for a raffle or something.


I hope you have a huge collection someday :) thanks!

Very awesome collection indeed! I bet the ceiling can't decide on what color to be with all of those beauties on.  8)

Ha no it can't lol. Thanks!

My what a large saber collection you have!  :o
Oh my!  ;) ;D. Lol
I love all the silver and black hilts.

Haha yeah I got the saber bug kinda bad lol. But I'm done for awhile!!! I think  ::)

Thank you! I love em too

I thought I was done for awhile too and we might be getting 2 more next month for Christmas though :P I asked for the Bane saber and just picked out the Consular for my bro. I'm still wanting some of the other simpler sabers too though. Prophecy V3 is on my list. Wanting to finish up my Dominix collection

Thats awesome! Congrats! Next raffle I think I'll get the Prophecy V3 myself  :D depending on when the raffle is of course lol

Absolutely Stunning, sweet line up you have

Thanks a bunch!  :D  +1

Nice so you finally got a Dominix V4 saber. Told you it was a good one :P I got an Archon v2.1 saber in Consular Green due Friday I can't wait to show everyone :) Wanted the more thicker neck feel on mine

It really is a good one! Congrats on your new saber Zren, the V2.1 is a beautiful hilt and great for spins :D

Sorry for the late reply but I know right :P I've done regular spins and reverse spins with my saber so far and its the most easiest saber to spin with other than my Overlord with the almost identical grip style. More sabers need to be made with that type of grip style I think :P
