Title: My collection so far... Post by: Solinus on October 13, 2012, 05:41:36 AM So with the recent grab bag that I got, plus the Facebook video raffle contest, I now own a total of FOUR Ultra Sabers. I love my sabers and I am extremely proud of them. I don't have some awesome photos like the rest of you do, so please excuse some of the blurry photos.
First up, the Overlord in Violet Amethyst: (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v328/Ironfeld/UltraSabers/IgnitedLightsOn.jpg) Second, an anodized blue Liberator v2 in Guardian Blue: (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v328/Ironfeld/UltraSabers/Liberator.jpg) The Overlord and Liberator v2 side by side: (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v328/Ironfeld/UltraSabers/IgnitedLightsOff.jpg) Next up is the Overlord, Aeon v3, and Dark Liberator v3: (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v328/Ironfeld/UltraSabers/2012-10-12215937.jpg) And finally, all four sabers side by side: (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v328/Ironfeld/UltraSabers/2012-10-12220015.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v328/Ironfeld/UltraSabers/2012-10-12220049.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v328/Ironfeld/UltraSabers/2012-10-12220027.jpg) For Christmas, if I can afford it, I'd like to have a staff in Fire Orange or Emerald Green. I would hope for the Manticore to be released by then, but if not, I want a Phantasm Initiate LE. I'm starting to notice that all of the hilts are extremely long for me and I am having a hard time wielding them. Title: Re: My collection so far...

VA is beautiful, particularly next to guardian blue. When my bro got his first saber, it was VA, we were in awe of the two colors next to each other. Kept stopping in the middle of our duels because of how cool the glow from our lockups looked. XD

The blue and purple seem to go very well together. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v328/Ironfeld/Kids/CJDualSaber.jpg) Title: Re: My collection so far...

The blue and purple seem to go very well together. Agreed! It is one of my favorite color combos, Artorius tends to use it quite a bit when he dual wields. Nice collection! The Overlord has always been a hilt I craved, I will have to get it eventually... perhaps in VA, because that combo is stunning! Title: Re: My collection so far...

Title: Re: My collection so far... Post by: Akos_Amun on October 14, 2012, 06:29:14 AM is it the length of the hilt or the blade that bothers you? i notice that the 32" blades make for a much quicker blade that balances very nicely at the emitter on my dominixes (phantom v3) and my v2 aeon and liberator. I don't have anything as short as the initiate hilts but they do look good for one handed wielding. You have a lot of blue! Blue would be so proud of you! ;)
I have a lot of blue as well, but I really want DVA and that emerald green sounds awesome. I want an overlord too, they look so good every time I see one! Nice collection Solinus Title: Re: My collection so far... Post by: Wolfknight on October 14, 2012, 01:37:57 PM Man thats a nice collection Solinus! I really really like that overlord in VA! Definatly hope I can get one of those someday! Those Libbys look awesome too. I think I am in love with the vented emitters! 8)
Title: Re: My collection so far... Post by: Master Bluespike74 on October 14, 2012, 04:31:17 PM Loving all the Blue??? Yes I am. Also, what is interesting is that when he gets a Grab Bag, it comes in a Blue and mine have been coming in Sith Red. How is that for Irony. I guess he and I are just part of some large doctoral student's experiment huh?
His Overlord is awesome and has made DVA one of my strongly desired colors. Title: Re: My collection so far...

Title: Re: My collection so far... Post by: Solinus on October 14, 2012, 09:22:39 PM Where was this taken? it kinda looks like the beach i spar on. Thanks all! I love my collection. @AlthaxX: It's Coronado, CA. I live about 10 minutes from here, and I can often be found here... mostly at night to clear my head and have some peace. @Nero: I kind of want to see a Violet Amethyst and Fire Orange combo. I don't know why, but it stands out to me as something that is not seen very often and therefore very unique. @Akos: I'm only 5' 6" with small hands. The hilts I have are just as long (if not longer) than my forearm. Combined with a full 36" blade, it makes it very hard to flourish and spin, and just feels awkward. I did request a 32" blade with the Dark Liberator and it makes things a little easier. Since I am interested in the more artistic form of Soresu, I think a shorter hilt and blade would make things much easier for me. @Wolf: Yeah, the windowed emitter is what changed my mind from a Dark Shock to the Overlord. I'm totally itching for the Manticore to be released! I want a staff! @Blue: I have to agree with ya. I only ordered one saber with a pre-determined color. That was my Overlord in Violet Amethyst. All of my others have been random, and they are all Guardian Blue. Now, there's nothing wrong with the color, but I need a little more variety in my life. LOL. Title: Re: My collection so far...

I'm trying to do the same. Got a couple people interested from work, but right now, all they see is Star Wars geek and it's hard for some to get past that. Title: Re: My collection so far...

Took me a bit of work but once i had my friends handled mine a bit they wanted in. I convinced 3 to buy with my order Title: Re: My collection so far...

In my new job, I came across a guy that quickly shut down his IE but not before I say Darth Caedus and Jacen Solo wiki tabs. I handed him an Ultrasabers card and told him to check it out as I was super happy with them. He dropped me an email and told me that he is in love with the Raven. |
