Saber Forum

Just got my first ultrasaber, a Menace SE lite in TRI Blazing Red :) Super happy with it and looks right at home with my other sabers. Hope you like these pics, planning on doing a little review/comparison video later on (after i receive my grab bag and get over an annoying cold) Enjoy! I know i did haha.

How odd I find it that that Anakin has gold buttons, but the Hasbro with a removable blade has bronze buttons. I wonder what the MR button colors are.

That is actually the MR Anakin saber :) I got it as a christmas present 11 years ago haha

Oh! Yeah, so then I'd assume that in ROTS, the buttons are definitely gold?

I'd safely assume that. However, from a quick look on google for screenshots from the movie its hard to find one where hes not covering the section with his hand. Here's a slight rotation on it, any other differences to your model, does yours have the lines? My blades not removable is one I can think of, thankfully my LEDs all still look good after such a long time :)

Everything is the same except for the buttons. My saber looks shinier (but was also purchased brand new much more recently). The button under the bunny ears serves as a screw to remove the blade.

Nice pics! Congrats on your new Menace. It's a fine saber and one of the more detailed ones. +1 for sharing

Thank you! +1 for +1ing haha :)
It honestly took me so long to choose between dark, SE, and CE. Id go to the site look at em, almost get one, close out and do it again another day. In the end I didn't want to spend more so opted out of CE and went with SE for the more authentic Maul look

That's completely understandable. It's hard to choose with so many options! I seriously considered the Dark Menace with silver underlay, but couldn't pass on the nickel-plated CE.

I can see why it's hard to pass up on haha! Honestly I think the black with silver underlay looks amazing as well though. Just received an Aeon V4 as a grab bag, also in blazing red, so I think US just decided for me that I shall be a Sith. I dont mind though, I do love cookies! ;D ;D

Ahhhh...good.   Welcome fellow sith.  -1 for you!

Now about that avatar pic...lol

I swear to you the pic is trolling me as well. Me and my buddy put it when I made account day 1, and Ive tried putting different links to change it and when every time i save changes and check profile. No change. I kinda gave up on it, lets see today xD

Turns out the pictures weren't considered "avatars". The error message just hadn't shown up any other day.

Very nice saber, same exact set up I want eventually. Single blade SE Blazing Red Clone Wars style. Its funny how you've easily forgotten me when my singular hatred for you has kept me alive! Kenobi! >:D (I don't know if I said that line right but oh well, lol). Mine will be a stunt of course unless I save until my bday and go with V3 sound, I only really care to have one soundfont on so

Nice! I'm enjoying it very much thus far so I would definitely recommend it :) I just wanted my US sooner than later (thus going with lite board) and im happy with the sound. I do plan on getting a nice obsidian board for future buys. Im astounded by your saber repertoire! One really isn't enough  ;D

MTFBW Us... and our wallets  :D

I know right. Lol. Still wanting a few other Sith side sabers as well. Manticore with the black mid grip in Violet Amethyst and probably Reaper in Pyrestone Orange. I consider that one to be a Sith color honestly due to its darker color shade and some Siths did have purple for a lightsaber blade color so

Blazars: No, one cannot! I've only just received my saber, and already have four added to my wishlist.  They'll eventually happen...sigh

Zren: The Manticore in VA would look simply amazing.

-1 for you both for making me feel all sithy...lol

Yup. Ever since the saber came out and the one guy did pictures at the beach forever ago with the same set up I want I wanted it like that ever since :P I think that post was called sabers at the beach or something like that and he had a Violet Amethyst Manticore. Wanted one ever since. I think purple could also pass as a Sith color so

Yes indeed it would.  It's unfortunate that we can't emulate the black core/purple glow like from the black/purple colour crystals in SWTOR...or can we...I wonder...all my Empire faction characters use them...lol

I'll have to see if I can find that post.

Very sweet line up ! the treasure of the chest
