Title: Just Ordered My First Saber!!
Post by: Gerald Angelo on June 21, 2012, 03:44:49 PM
Last night, after weeks of thinking and planning, I finally decided to order my first Ultra Saber.

Nothing to special, the Standard Issue Battle Saber v3 is what I decided to get.
Guardian Blue,
Heavy Grade Blade,
The Catalyst Pommel,
Li-on Setup with BuckPuck,
Obsidian USB Sound! (I didn't get the lighty button feature)
Flash On Clash (Guardian Blue)
Round Tip,
Sure on the Screw,
Yes with the Blade Plug.

If I'm as happy with it as I think I will be, I probably will be ordering another saber at some point. I decided to get the Heavy Grade Blade for dueling because I'm hoping I can convince the rest of my family to buy one too.
I'm a huge Star Wars and Wookipeda nut, when I found Ultra Sabers..... I found Love <3

I'll be sure to post pics, and maybe even a video..... Heck I'll even write a review! I just can't wait for it too get here!!!! (I'm not overreacting)
Thank you Ultra Sabers <3

That sounds pretty awesome man and i hope you are pleased with your final result. The only advice I can offer is getting an ultra edge heavy grade instead of just heavy grade. I have both and the heavy grade blade doesn't flex at all. Just seems that the better dueling blade is ultra edge blades.

Great choice.  I see that I am gaining a Blue army here.  Mucho happy.  Anyhow, I don't think you can get Guardian Blue as your flash color since your main LED is also Guardian Blue.  Your choices for a Flash color if your main color is Guardian Blue are:  Red, Green, Orange, Silver, Sentinel Yellow and Pyrestone Orange.  I would shoot them an email at [email protected] to let them know your order number and your Flash color preference.  Based on my color wheel, Fire Orange, Sentinel Yellow, and Pyrestone Orange are very complimentary colors for Guardian Blue. 

Darth is also correct that the UltraEdge Heavy Blade looks outstanding in Guardian Blue.  I also like it in Consular Green.  The only down side to the UEHG Blade is that when your saber is off, it looks white all of the time where the Standard Heavy Grade Blade has a nice silver sheen to it. 

Love your choices and welcome aboard.  I cannot wait to see what you get next and please be sure to do pictures or video.  We love those things around here a lot.

Blue

Thanks for the Advice guys!
I'll be sure to get a Ultra Edge Blade too.
When I said Flash On Clash Guardian blue, I meant just plane blue... Sorry haha.

Thanks for the warm welcoming! I hope it gets here soon too!

No, just plain Blue.

So your main color is guardian blue and its going to flash guardian blue?

Right I thought the same thing about the blues. I just checked it out and on the Standard Issue saber the FoC choices don't have the full names. It says red, blue, green etc. I am emailing Ultrasabers right now. They probably don't realize haha. But you for sure need to change your color. You have them both set to Guardian Blue.

Yeah, that's what I want. Why? Is that a problem? Its just like in the moves right?

The two blues you have chosen are the exact same shade. You won't see anything with the flashing.

Post by: Darth_Danton on June 22, 2012, 01:04:10 AM
Also correct me if I am wrong but atleast in the original three it flashed silver


Title: Re: Just Ordered My First Saber!!
Post by: Gerald Angelo on June 22, 2012, 01:08:58 AM
Crap! So it's not going to flash at all! Crap!!!!!

Are you guys sure? Did you do the exact same thing? How do you know?


Title: Re: Just Ordered My First Saber!!
Post by: BenPass on June 22, 2012, 01:13:17 AM
We are sure unfortunately. I haven't done the same, but we are all intimately aware of the colors US offers. The only blue colors are Guardian Blue, Artic Blue ($5 premium color) or Sunrider's Destiny (also $5 premium color). If you choose blue and blue, nothing will happen.


Title: Re: Just Ordered My First Saber!!
Post by: Darth_Danton on June 22, 2012, 01:14:47 AM
But being said i think you will see a flash it just will be not as bright

I thought it would still flash blue, just make it flash cooler.......
Dang it....

Has it shipped? If not, email them at [email protected] or [email protected] and see if you can get ahold of them before it gets assembled.


Title: Re: Just Ordered My First Saber!!
Post by: Gerald Angelo on June 22, 2012, 01:23:30 AM
It just shipped.......

Won't it still flash a little? Maybe not as bright but still, won't their be some flash?


Title: Re: Just Ordered My First Saber!!
Post by: JediShadow on June 22, 2012, 01:51:53 AM
Here's the deal. The Flash on Clash table says you can't get a Guardian Blue saber with a Guardian Blue flash. And I think I have read before that if you order a combo that isn't possible then they will pick something that they think looks the best. So I wouldn't worry. They will more than likely make it silver. That's my guess.


Title: Re: Just Ordered My First Saber!!
Post by: BenPass on June 22, 2012, 01:57:22 AM
    Okay you can relax. JediShadow is right. I just looked it up and here's what I found.


  • Please check the list below for available clash colors based on your blade color choice.  If you pick an unavailable color, the saber tech will make the saber flash the color they think is best.  (Please pick an available color)
  • Any saber with the RGB blade color can only flash silver or orange.  So, when you pick RGB for your blade color, please pick RGB Flash on Clash because it is the only available option for a RGB saber and specify in the order comments if you'd like white or orange (default will be silver).

BenPass Thank you! I hope you are right, at the very least you are making sense and you have put my mind at ease. I'm giving you a point.

Everybody.... I guess we will have to wait and see....

If your clash comes to you as silver, this video below will give you an idea of what to expect.  It is my Guardian Blue War Glaive with Silver Flash on Clash.

Gives you ideas for the next one doesn't it lol

If you wanted movie like effects you should've gone with orange flash. Thats what I'm doing. Maybe it isn't too late to still get your flash color changed. I'd email Deep quick like before your saber gets shipped unless its too late. Or if it gets shipped before you can ask I think you can always send it back and get the flash re-done. Like I said I'd go orange or silver for flash.

If you'd have read the thread you would have seen that its already shipped dude.  No need in worrying about what he should have done. The guys at Ultrasabers will take care of it.

Gerald Angelo you just need to kick back and relax while you await what is going to be an awesome saber  8)

I don't know what you are talking about  8)

Post by: Gerald Angelo on June 22, 2012, 01:06:57 PM
Yep, if it flashes Silver I'm a happy guy! :) Or orange, but as long as I know its not Blue I'm happy  :)
Ultra Sabers I trust :) I should get it middle of next week... I can't wait!
Thank you so much guys!

I'm also going to (after I get the Saber) Order a Ultra Edge blade like you said.


Title: Re: Just Ordered My First Saber!!
Post by: Gerald Angelo on June 28, 2012, 12:16:49 AM
I got it today! I've had it for about a hour.... I HAVE FOUND LOVE! THE SOUND!!! So real!

You guys were right, it flashes SiLvEr! Haha!
I will post pictures, and I will post a review. I've played with it so much I ran the power down, I got it charging now.
I am surprised how bright it is with a Heavy Grade Blade, I will probably order a Mid Grade or Ultra Edge at some point.

Also, I've played a lot with adjusting the sensitivity, I'm getting there.... I'll get it soon I know it!

Thank you everybody! I will post photos, a review... Maybe even a video.
This I know, is the start of something big. Everybody in my family wants one now, and I know I will get a second one some day.
I love my Saber!
