My first saber ever...a grab bag Liberator!

[ThatsNoMoon]

This was a grab bag saber, and the only specification I asked for was a Guardian Blue blade. Other than that, I let my destiny unfold without my intervention. This saber is beautiful. It's my first time handling a lightsaber in general, not just an Ultrasaber. For the first few hours I just kept going back and picking it up, swinging it around, and putting it away again, only to come back a few minutes later and repeat the process. The guys at Ultrasaber even made the button blue for me to match the color of the blade!

The counterweight in the pommel seems to make handling the saber a breeze. I'm still a Padawan when it comes to this stuff, but I must say this is an easy sword to swing around with one hand and still feel in control. I don't feel clumsy at all swiping it around, and I think that is a testament to Ultrasaber's design rather than my experience with a sword (which is absolutely none at all!). Most of all I love the feel of the saber. It has a slightly scratchy or ridged surface which makes it easy to hold onto the hilt without worrying about it flying out of my hand. There's even a slight choke point, albeit very minor, that is just the right size for my hands to wrap around and my thumb still fits easily on the button.

I want to do a full-fledged review with pictures and even videos later, but I'm currently on break at work. I'll post some pics when I get home!

Nice score I love my Libby, I love how the grab bags as of late have matching switches.

All right, another blue guy!!!  Point awarded for an awesome score on the Liberator in GB.  Nice that you got the Blue switch as well.

Thanks for the comments so far! I snapped some pictures for us to enjoy! I love this thing.



Here's just the hilt. I can't tell you how much fun I'm having with those emitter windows. I bought the blade plug as well. Tonight I've just been watching the NBA Finals while twirling the hilt around and playing with it.



Those wonderful windows I was talking about earlier.



Here it is in all its glory. Guardian Blue is just gorgeous to look at. It looks even better when photographed.



Last photo, and my only attempt at being fancy with my photography. LOL.

All in all, I couldn't be happier with this buy. I'm so pleased with Ultrasabers and the work they do. They've truly made me feel like a kid again. I read that Grab Bag sabers sometimes have flaws in the hilt, and that's why they are so cheap. But there are zero flaws in this Liberator. Much thanks to Deep and everyone involved here. Full video review to come!

omg, it's glorious. What luck.

A point for thee!

Nice Libby! I always thought it looked best in GB, and your photos reinforce my belief!

Hmm... people seem to be getting Liberators in grab bags a lot lately.  The force likes Liberators apparently.
