My Raffle Entry Custom Reaper and Third Place Prize!

[Drahcir]

Nice pic! Really Drahcir, what CAN'T you do?   Actually this pic would be perfect for the social media pic thread for US fb page now that I think of it.  Again, CG on a black hilt=shmexy.

Ha!
Thanks, maybe I should post it there.

That looks awesome too..... can we have a few closer pics pls?

And that emitter holds the shroud in tight yea? Could look good with that emitter in black also 

You debating over a Reaper JediXIX?  You seem concerned about the silver shroud, what gives?

I'll get some closer pics in a bit, about to go out.

But yes, everything is very secure I've swung and hit it around with no issue thus far.

Yea, the black Reaper has always had my eye, lol..... and in CG with green av just looks sooo nice..... I'm lucky enough to have a curved Azure reaper

and I wasn't fond of the silver shroud on mine, it doesn't screw in and needs to be held tight by the emitter so it doesn't spin, it always felt like it wanted to spin or slip in my hand, if it was just a bit higher above my hand it'd feel better, but thats just me.....

Really like the Guardian pommel that Drahcir has done here, and look of the MHS emitter he has...... ooohhh, I wonder how it'd look with the new black Manticore emitter  

I'll get some closer pics in a bit, about to go out.

No rush mate...... thanks

Oh I forgot you had that! That was back in the early days I guess .  The Crimson version is high on my wish list and Drahcir's model only furthers my interest in it. Has so many MHS possibilities...

Well I finally got home to my package and my third place prize!

....
And just for fun!

ok, this last pic.. what are the two ends? this is EXTREMELY similar to my characters lightsaber I created in my teens, basically the body of the hilt is straighter than the Initiate, and the emitter and pommel ends are the same as this pic, but without the claw attachments! HOW did you get hold of those? are they in the shop as parts?

Many thanks! AWESOME PICS!

There's the emitter and pommel from a Reaper. The pommel will fit on an Initiate or other MHS compatible hilt. The emitter of this hilt isn't MHS compatible, though, so I'm guessing it wouldn't stay on if you picked it up to wave it around.

To the best of my knowledge the Reaper parts aren't listed separately on the site, but US may be able to send them to you if you contact them at [email protected]. If you're looking for a similar setup, a Dark Arbiter, Dark Shock or Overlord might work to add them to, but there aren't (to my knowledge) and silver Reaper emitters or pommels so you'd have to go for a black/red/blue hilt as those are the colours that Reapers come in.

hmmm, Many thanks for the info James! ..just wondering.. I'd prob be best, to get my dreamsaber:

/||||||||||/=======================

To get a Standard issue which has an angled emitter anyway, then see if Emory will do a deal for a NON claw Reaper Pommel? i wonder... need to sell more stuff on e-bay to up my paypal account! 

ta all!

That reaper emitter is actually securely attached - just to the blade instead of the hilt. There are retention screws on it to adjust the positioning of the claw, I'm just using those same screws to secure it to the blade.

This saber needed a place in my signature.

Drahcir, nice saber and nice job with the mods.  The Reaper is my next blade and I plan on modding it as well.  Don't really like both "claws" BUT, I sense something that can be done.  Hopefully, the physics of my intent will pan out.  Can't share for now but, will post pics when I'm done.  Again, nice job and congrats on your raffle win!

I ended up being pretty happy with the combo in my signature.
I'll be excited to see what you come up with for yours.

Dude, I've been eyeballing your Reaper for the last 15 min and, I just have to say, AGAIN....THAT is one gorgeous saber! I really love your mods! The Reaper will be mine!  Oh yes, it will be mine!
