Title: An Archon V2 Halloween treat for all of you tricksters Post by: LaserRay on October 15, 2011, 12:03:37 PM If you don't care to read my thoughts, then skip ahead and enjoy the pictures!
I'm sure many of you, like me, are curious what the Archon V2 looks like in different colors and with different emitters. This is my attempt to satisfy at least some of your curiosity, while providing some Halloween eye-candy. The Shock Archon V2 hilt measures 10 inches. The Shock Archon V2 staff hilt measures 19 inches. It's too bad the War Archon V2 emitters don't line-up with the button on the hilt, but it is no big deal either. One nice thing about the Archon V2 emitters and Shock emitters is that there are no alignment issues (unless you consider the setscrew hole). Interestingly, I received the Shock LE emitters with no setscrew holes, but the other emitters had the holes drilled and tapped. None of the separate emitters came with setscrews. I spent more in fuel costs driving to purchase the setscrews than the cost of the setscrews. I prefer silver claws on the War Glaive emitters for two reasons: 1) I like the contrast betweeen the emitter and the claws and 2) while it is a subtle effect, the silver claws reflect more light than the black claws. The Archon V2s are equipped with Obsidian sound. Enjoy the pictures!

Great pictures! I love that the Archon is MHS compatible.
Title: Re: An Archon V2 Halloween treat for all of you tricksters Post by: Zren Tobas on October 15, 2011, 02:07:49 PM I think your hilt looks best with the Dark Shock emitter. I'd keep it for a personal touch unless its a Jedi saber for you then go for the Shock LE emitter.

you get a point. This is a really good idea. SY FTW! ;D Title: Re: An Archon V2 Halloween treat for all of you tricksters Post by: LaserRay on October 16, 2011, 02:04:15 AM Kham, you made me laugh! Ty. The Dark War Archon V2 picture labeled (GB, BR) is actually (VA, BR). I wish I could correct the original post.

The Dark War Archon V2 picture labeled (GB, BR) is actually (VA, BR). I wish I could correct the original post. But seriously. That is a really good picture of the SY next to the FO. Both are my favs. But next to the SY, the FO looks much more orange. A lot of pictures the FO looks more yellow. Title: Re: An Archon V2 Halloween treat for all of you tricksters Post by: ThreadJack on October 16, 2011, 10:47:37 PM That Dark Shock emitter looks like it was made specifically for the Archon body. Awesome!
Title: Re: An Archon V2 Halloween treat for all of you tricksters Post by: Kannik on October 16, 2011, 10:54:08 PM Cool! You went with the black War Glaive/Silver Claws and I chose the silver War Glaive/Black Claws. -grins- And thanks for posting the Shock heads, I was wondering how they looked on the Archon v2 body. Now I know!
peace, Kannik Title: Re: An Archon V2 Halloween treat for all of you tricksters Post by: Qui-Tom Helms on October 17, 2011, 12:16:15 AM Nice pics! The Archons are versatile. Have you decided which set-up you are going to keep them most of the time?

Qui-Tom: Even with as much as I consider myself to be a Jedi, my favorite is with the war glaive emitter. The pair with FO and BR are simply amazing! Kannik: I saw your post and think that both war glaives look great on the Archon V2. Excellent choice! Everyone: Thanks so much for your comments and I am truly glad you like the post!

Title: Re: An Archon V2 Halloween treat for all of you tricksters Post by: RLYHYPERGUY on March 12, 2012, 03:27:58 AM I completely forgot that I had posted in this! Lol thanks for remembering, man! ;D
Title: Re: An Archon V2 Halloween treat for all of you tricksters Post by: Kham-Ryn Kurios on March 12, 2012, 06:00:10 AM Those are some wicked pictures Laser.
Of course I love the SY but those Dark Violet War Glaive's are Gorgeous. Point! Title: Re: An Archon V2 Halloween treat for all of you tricksters Post by: LaserRay on March 13, 2012, 12:59:09 AM Thanks for the point and all the comments! Kham, I thought you might like the FO PO too. I really like Dark Violet. It is an excellent color. Of the yellow / oranges, I like Fire Orange the best. Again, though, all of the colors are great. No matter your choice, you will not be disappointed! I also like the war glaive emitters both dark and light best on the Archon V2 body. I guess you can tell that from the pictures! ;) All of these were made possible by our friends at UltraSabers. They have my thanks.
Title: Re: An Archon V2 Halloween treat for all of you tricksters Post by: Stockton on March 13, 2012, 02:07:44 AM Seeing a couple Archon's next to each other makes me want to order a second one and dual wield them. Oh and get the Dark Shock emitter. I still can't get over how sweet that looks.
